Low-carb diets exceed nutrient needs and promote heart health

The meals that they had selected by nutritionists are not something that I would prepare. There are too many ingredients and would take lots of preparation time. My meals are much simpler.

I understand them wanting to make sure there was a good variety of different foods, but good grief, most of the breakfasts were more complex than the recipes I use to make dinner!
The only good thing about this is that they're finally acknowledging that you can indeed get all necessary nutrients on a LC diet. |
I'm 25 net carbs a day, or I'll gain.
What works for one doesn't necessarily work for another. Or like my father used to say, “One man's meat is another man's poison.” If you look at pictures of youth from the 50s, 60s and 70s, before the low fat/high carb diets, you will notice they are quite a bit slimmer than today's youth. That should tell you something. |
To get a "Well-constructed low-carbohydrate meal plans that is nutritionally adequate in adults." We should use "Net Carbs" and a wide variety of foods …or it is low in some nutrients and fiber. A food list that was less than 20g total carbs, only 2 c. Salad, 1 c. Veg! was not healthy for me long-term. This menu looks great, but to be fair, the authors have a COI with Atkins and Quest. Hard to get study funding otherwise.

That is big, though! Constant pressure from sick women, who have nutrition needs not being addressed along with extra stress from social pressure about weight, and the tendency for them to be short on time to take care of themselves, especially with a family. They like to fancy up the diet to make it appealling, but simpler is actually better, on the daily. |
