Losing weight
Recognise the difference between hunger and thirst.

The feelings of hunger and thirst are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the alternative is fine.
The argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Remember, one fact that is often overlooked, it is extremely hard (though not totally impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carbohydrate diet.
Scientific studies over recent years have proved that exessive consumption of animal fat can result in higher risk of cancer, heart disease and other serious conditions.
