EXCELLENT summary. Women are really putting their lean mass (mostly muscle) and overall health at risk by equating all carbs as “bad” and over restricting them. Great point about needing carbs for fuel to spare protein from being burned as a calorie source. Oversimplification by influencers is confusing a lot of women!
