"Hi all Im about to embark on a low carb high protein diet. Any tips?" So 1990's that diet. Presumably you have read up on it so the only tip you need is to keep chewing gum, breath fresh spray and mouth wash close to hand. | |||

"It's not about no carbs, won't work. Eat only low gi carbs and you will achieve. Sweet potato, butternut squash, lentils and pulses, brown rice. The are the key. Plus plenty of clean protein, veg and water. Jobs a gooden! "That won't work for me, if I want to lose weight I have to cut out all the low gi carbs too, and I am pretty active. For some people it is indeed all about lowering insulin response. | |||

"Hi all Im about to embark on a low carb high protein diet. Any tips?" Drink plenty of water. You may also need a fibre supplement. Watch sugar alcohols (ususally the sweetners ending in -ol) which are in a lot of 'low carb' products. They cause the same insulin response as sugar and can take you out of ketosis. Count them as carbs in your daily total. Remember that cheating once will set you back two or three days. Ignore the critics. A very low carb diet is very beneficial for some for reasons other than weight loss. Many diabetics use it long term to control the condition, very successfully. There are people on here who live low carb permanently and have done for many years. Those who don't have a problem with insulin response will never understand it but those that do will verify that it works. There's no reason, once you've adjusted to running on ketones, why you can't exercise. I find I feel far more prone to feeling cold in ketosis but that's the only even slightly negative effect for me. Benefits include the cessation of flare ups of my skin, better digestive health, more energy, more stable, better moods. Losing fat isn't the only benefit. Ketosis is a well established pathway and the science behind low carbing is sound. It doesn't suit everyone but those it does suit, it suits very well. Good luck. It's generally very difficult for the first 3 days and difficult for the first couple of weeks. It gets easier after that. | |||

But when we found out horses were suffering from the same problem, only often with fatal consequences, we developed successful management regimes based on the same principles, gleaned from research in all species. | |||
