Weight loss is literally calories in vs calories out. That’s it. Carbs generally have way more calories than foods without carbs. Low carb definitely works for weight loss, so I don’t know if I’d call that debunked.
It’s really simple. But these fad diet cultures we get sucked into have made us all crazy it feels like.
Any restrictive diet can lead to weight loss, because you're not allowed to eat the stuff you wanna eat, so you don't eat as much.
If there's nothing special about carbs (and I don't think there is...) that's what I'd call "debunked."
High carb foods have more calories than low carb ones by a wide margin. Which is why it works. And if it works, it is not debunked.
Fat has more than double the calorie density, I'm not sure what you mean by "high carb food have more calories".
Well you shouldn’t go heavy on high fat foods either. Where did I say that you should?
