In this episode of the "ABC de la perte de poids" podcast, host Alicia Marcelle Martine Bragalli (Ali Braggs) demystifies carbohydrates for busy women seeking lasting weight loss. She begins by challenging the common belief that all carbs are harmful, explaining that many carbs can be allies when chosen wisely. She defines carbohydrates (monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides) and their role as a primary energy source, especially for the brain and during exercise. The core of the episode covers the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL), showing how these metrics assess a food’s impact on blood sugar and insulin response. Ali explains low, medium, and high GI categories, gives concrete examples (sweet potato vs. white flour), and illustrates why a small amount of candy can have a lower GL than a slice of white bread. Practical timing advice follows: she recommends consuming carbs after workouts and at dinner rather than first thing in the morning, linking this to better recovery, stress management, and sleep. Throughout, she warns against restrictive “yo‑yo” dieting, emphasizing sustainable, balanced eating over short‑term cuts. She promotes a free low‑GI food list available in her Facebook community, mentions her upcoming best‑selling book on mindset and nutrition, and teases the next episode on adaptogenic plants. The overall message is that carbs, when low‑GI and timed correctly, support health and weight loss without deprivation.
