If u know a friend with depression and cuts but they dont know that u know bc u saw and u dont know what to do or how to respond how do u help that friend without being direct about it

Be kind about it and tell them that you are there for them.

Explanation: I have been in this situation and I understand how difficult it can be. What you need to do is to try and help them yourselves like possibly take away the object they use to self harm and talk to them. You don't have to say that you know but let them know you are there for them. Search for sign on whether it is getting better or worse. If it starts to get worse and out of your hands you need to say something to a trusted adult. Start monitoring this person and do anything and everything you can to help them. Search some information on google of signs if needed. Just know that it is okay to tell an adult if it gets out of hand. Some people feel like it is like betraying there friend, but it is not. You are trying to help them from something potentially life threatening. Which brings me to tell you make sure they aren't thinking of killing themselves and try to find the source of why they are cutting themselves. It might not be as serious as you think so don't jump to conclusions. But i'm just a passionate middle schooler so you shouldn't take everything to heart. If this isn't enough information for you or you have a question you can ask.

so if you eat a 2000-calorie diet, you should aim for about 225 to 325 grams of carbs per day.

but if you need to lose weight, you will get much faster results eating around 50 to 150 grams of carbs.

in fact, a popular alternative called the low-carb diet has been shown to be much more effective for weight loss than the high-carb diet that has been recommended for the past few decades.

this diet restricts your intake of carbohydrates like sugars and starches (breads, pasta, etc.) and replaces them with protein, fat and healthy vegetables.

studies show that low-carb diets reduce your appetite and make you eat fewer calories and lose weight pretty much effortlessly, as long as you manage to keep the carbs down (1trusted source).

in studies where low-carb and low-fat diets are compared, the researchers need to actively restrict calories in the low-fat groups to make the results comparable, but the low-carb groups still usually win (2trusted source, 3trusted source).

low-carb diets also have benefits that go way beyond just weight loss. they lower blood sugar, blood pressure and triglycerides. they raise hdl (the good) and improve the pattern of ldl (the bad) cholesterol (4trusted source, 5trusted source).

low-carb diets cause more weight loss and improve health more than the calorie restricted, low-fat diet still recommended by many people. this is pretty much a scientific fact at this point (6, 7, 8trusted source).

explanation:

there are many studies showing that low-carb diets are more effective and healthier than the low-fat diet that is still recommended by many people.

which ever one is showing doing the same exercise in time intervals such as 30 seconds or a minute several times.
