We are going to cover what a low carb diet is and what it isn’t. There are many positives to low carb diets and we discuss some of these in detail and the performance advantages over a traditional low fat diet and how these will help you adhere to your new plan in the long term

What are the important features of a low carb diet that has led them to be the most popular diet in the world over recent years. The root cause of the obesity problems of many industrialized countries lies at the hands of over consumption of carbohydrates. Foods that are high in carbohydrates include wheat based products like, pastas and breads and other sugary sweets like cakes, chocolates and candy. In the western world governmental health policy has been directed towards a low fat model which in return has led to an over consumption of high energy carbs which has resulted in increasing levels of obesity. Excess carbohydrate in the body gets converted into sugars which get into the blood stream, our bodies are sensitive to sugar and we end up removing that sugar with it being stored as fat.

What are the benefits of choosing a high protein low carb diet over other diets and why should you consider starting a low carb diet. There are huge benefits to governments in identifying the most effective fat loss diets and often the one that has come out on top is the low carb diet. One advantage of a low carb diet is that it promotes consumption of higher levels of protein which keeps you fuller for longer which helps reduce calorie intake and also requires more energy for your body to process it. Low cat calorie restricted diets often cause a loss of muscle instead of unwanted fat tissue, this in turn makes continued fat loss more difficult. Loss of muscle mass is a considerable problem as muscle requires a lot of energy to keep it functioning optimally, it’s like having your heating on it uses a lot of fuel. Having your muscle mass decrease causes a slow down in your metabolic rate to stall.

How do you choose the best low carb diet? various low carb authors promote different levels of carbohydrate in their plans from a very low 10 g to a maximum of around 50 g per day. The lower the carbohydrate content we often find lower levels of adherence over time as people often feel they are unhealthy as you are restricted on the amount of fruit and vegetables you can consume. When choosing a weight loss diet make sure you ask yourself the question will I be able to stick to this for the long term because if it appears like a fad the chances are you’ll end up yo-yoing. Ensuring your low carb diet plan has high levels of vegetables will make it a lot easier to stick to for extended periods of weight loss.

We’ve explained the benefits of a low carb eating regime and how it’s been proven to work better than low fat diets and why it’s important choose a plan that you can sustain and you feel that is healthy. What are you waiting for give it a go. You will be surprised how easy it is to follow and the results you achieve.
