No. They don't. This is a bike. It all started with a story about a low-carb diet. People were limited to starchy foods and watched what would become of weight. The weight was decreasing.
It turned out to be most effective to limit carbohydrates to 50 grams or less per day. From this, fat starts to break down, ketosis starts, people smell like acetone and all that.
At the same time, glycogen stores are quickly consumed in the muscles and liver. But glycogen is not alone. He takes water with him.
The fact is that in our body glycogen is stored together with water. For every gram of glycogen stored in the liver or muscles, there are 3-4 grams of water fixed on it. Therefore, with a sharp restriction in the diet of carbohydrates, not only glycogen is lost, but also water. Because of this, low-carb diets are so popular.
It's funny that the fat won't go away quickly. So this is just weight manipulation. Well, kind of like a sauna for athletes. They regulate their weight through dehydration. It's unhealthy.
Glycogen in our body does not lie anywhere. It is held together with water inside the cells. And those edemas that torment many are localized not in the cells, but in the intercellular space.
It turns out that a low-carb diet removes some of the water, but does not affect swelling.
