WEIGH HEY I'm a dietitian - here's 4 physical signs you need to eat MORE carbs


(1º§) Many trendy weight loss diets encourage cutting out carbs, claiming it's the secret to dropping pounds. Both the keto and Atkins diet say to instead focus ___ eating protein and fats.


(2º§) As the body has less carbs to use for energy, it burns body fat instead. But a dietician would say this is the wrong way to approach healthy eating, and potentially dangerous.


(3º§) The body turns to stored fat when there is a lack of carbohydrate, but it also eats away at protein tissue such as in the heart or muscle, The Britician Association of UK Dieticians says.


(4º§) Each food group - carbs, proteins and fats - is important for physical health. Carbs provide fibre to keep bowels moving and prevent disease. They fuel the brain and body. Without carbs, you may get a headache, constipation, bad breath or nausea. Starchy foods, the main source of carbs, should make up a third ___ your daily diet, the NHS says.


(5º§) The BDA says: "We get energy from carbohydrates, protein, fat and alcohol in our diet. "Any extra (unneeded) energy we take in will be converted to fat no matter what the source. "Sometimes people think starchy foods are fattening however, the same amount (in weight) of carbohydrate contains less than half the calories of fat. "Studies have also shown carbohydrates are better at satisfying our hunger."


(6º§) Nichola Ludlam-Raine, a registered dietitian, told Insider there is "no good reason to remove carbs from your diet". She said: "Low-carb diets have been popular for a number of years, even decades now, but reducing your carbohydrate intake can come with a cost."


(7º§) Here are four signs you need to up your carb intake: Carbs are the body's main source of fuel, so if you reduce your carb intake significantly, you'll likely notice a depletion of your energy levels, too, Ludlam-Raine said. "Our body can use other sources of fuel (such as fat), although carbohydrates are able to provide a more rapid source of energy to enable us to function optimally, both cognitively and physically," she said.


(8º§) The primary source of energy in the brain is glucose, which comes from eating delicious carbs. It can rely on other stores, such as ketones. On the keto diet, the body turns fat into ketones in the liver, which can supply the brain. But this isn't a sustainable source of brain power, said Ludlam-Raine. Symptoms of brain fog can include moodiness, irritability and difficulty concentrating.


(9º§) Ludlam-Raine said: "Consuming carbs alongside protein helps to support the production of tryptophan, which is then converted into serotonin, also known as the happy hormone." Ludlam-Raine said the body stores carbohydrates as glycogen ___ the liver and muscles. Glycogen is the main source of energy when you do exercise, and when it's depleted, you feel fatigued. It's no wonder that on a low carb diet, you can feel too tired to go to the gym - which isn't beneficial for overall health.


(10º§) Mikle Molloy, a sports-nutrition coach, said in a worst case scenario of "exercise flu" you'll feel out of it, with a headache and muscle aches, and just want to lie on the ground. Carbs aren't just needed pre-workout, but post-workout too.


(11º§) Once the glycogen stores hit rock bottom, they need replenishing, Ludlam-Raine said. "It's recommended to consume carbohydrates alongside protein to support recovery and enable you to feel at your best before your next workout," she said.


(12º§) Feeling achy, sluggish or low in energy when you go to the gym may signal poor recovery. Some carbs are healthier options than others. Potato is best when baked, mashed or boiled as opposed to fried.


(13º§) We all know brown bread is better for us than white - but do you know why? Wholegrain, wholemeal and brown breads are more fibrous and contain B vitamins, vitamin E, fibre and a wide range of minerals.


(14º§) The same goes for pasta - try and eat wholewheat or whole grain options. Grains, such as couscous, oatmeal, brown rice and barley, are also important sources of starchy carbohydrates. Fruit and vegetables also contain carbohydrates. Ludlam-Raine recommended getting your carbs mostly from whole grains (such as brown bread and pasta), fruits, and vegetables.

Gabarito: C

Fundamento decisivo: O critério decisivo era a equivalência semântica entre a frase original e a reescrita, especialmente o valor de frequência de "sometimes" e a ideia de "are fattening". Isso isola a alternativa C como a única que mantém o sentido sem acréscimos ou alteração de frequência.

Tema central: Equivalência semântica
Análise das alternativas
A
Errada
Está errada porque troca "sometimes" por "always". Isso muda a frequência de algo que ocorre às vezes para algo que ocorre sempre, quebrando a equivalência semântica.
B
Errada
Está errada porque introduz a ideia de decisão consciente em "have decided to think", que não existe no original. Além disso, não reproduz adequadamente o valor de "sometimes".
C
Certa
A alternativa C é correta porque preserva o valor eventual de "sometimes" ao usar "occasionally" e reescreve adequadamente "starchy foods are fattening" como "starchy foods make you fat". Assim, mantém a ideia central da frase sem alterar seu sentido.
D
Errada
Está errada porque "it is unusual for people to think" não equivale precisamente a "sometimes people think". A frase passa a ter um foco avaliativo sobre ser incomum, o que não é o mesmo sentido do original.
Pegadinha da questão
A confusão real era aceitar como equivalente uma reescrita que altera a frequência de "sometimes" ou acrescenta sentido mental inexistente, como em "have decided to think", além de tomar "unusual" como sinônimo automático de "sometimes".
Dica para questões semelhantes
  • Em questão de reescrita, teste primeiro o valor exato do advérbio de frequência; extremos como "always" costumam denunciar erro.
  • Elimine paráfrases que acrescentem conteúdo novo, como intenção, decisão ou julgamento que não aparece no original.
  • Confira se a predicação foi mantida: aqui, "are fattening" podia ser reescrito por "make you fat" sem mudar o sentido.
