Micronutrients & recovery

Healthy low-carbohydrate diet (HLCD) reduces fecal branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and increases unsaturated fatty acids, which are positively associated with fat mass.

HLCD changes your gut environment by lowering BCAAs and increasing unsaturated fats, which are linked to lower fat mass. This suggests that what you eat changes how your gut processes nutrients, aiding fat loss.
