Some Straight Talk About Low-Carbohydrates and Your Health by Rick Trojan

There have been many diets and weight loss plans that have come

and gone over the years. Low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets

were popular decades ago. And today are making a comeback.

These diets do promote weight loss. Low-carbohydrate, high-

protein diets are more effective. Than low-fat, low-cholesterol,

low-calorie diets. Also your cholesterol levels often improve

more on a low-carb diet.

A low-carb diet plan structures your eating choices around the

selection of lean protein sources. Focusing on fish, soy,

poultry, low fat dairy and lean red meats.

It is a diet high in fibrous, crispy vegetables and fruits.

Like green beans, cauliflower, broccoli, asparagus, peppers,

spinach, lettuces, berries, cherries, grapes and melons, to

name a few.

You are also allowed limited size portions of starchy

vegetables. Such as potatoes, carrots, beets and beans/legumes.

However, sweets and sugary foods are eliminated. With the

exception of small portions on occasional *diet holidays*.

Your focus should be on healthy choices of fats. That Include

raw nuts, seeds, nut butters, olives, olive oil, nut oils. Also

some butter, fish oil and flax seed meal.

You should avoid trans fats (partially hydrogenated fats). Like

fried foods, excessive saturated fats and margarine that

contains trans fats.

Your objective should be to have a protein source at each meal.

Along with vegetables, fruit and fats as mentioned above. To

help avoid dietary deficiencies. You should include daily

nutritional supplements. Consisting of a multivitamin,

essential oils, diet formulation and chromium picolinate.
