Diet tips
In planning a meal plan, the important thing is to try to cut down your ingestion of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* Don't skip meals
Most low carbohydrate recipes are, errmm.., low in carbs. Your body must have energy, and carbs are a fast acting energy source. A reduced carb diet needs great care in managing your energy intake, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is much slower acting.
