Low-carbohydrate diets are nutritional programs that advocate restricted carbohydrate consumption. Low carb diets are based on the principle that a diet low in carbohydrates leads to decreased production of body’s insulin, resulting in consumption of fat stores as energy source. Low-carb diets are usually higher in fat. And fat takes longer to digest, which makes you feel fuller longer. Most low-carb diets reduce your overall calorie intake because they strictly limit the variety of foods you can eat.
Carbohydrates — including bread, pasta, rice, cereals, milk, fruit and sweets — usually supply over half of people’s daily calories. Many carbohydrate-containing foods are loaded with essential vitamins, minerals, fiber and other substances that promote health. While eliminating “white” carbs, such as white bread, white rice and white pasta, is fine to do, incorporating whole grains, fruits and other natural carbs is essential. And while you do need carbohydrates, take in moderation if there is little or no weight loss cut the carbs.
