Perhaps you should read Life Without Bread, by Dr. Lutz. He suggests you avoid the very low carb levels recommended by others, and stick with about 70-80 grams of carbs. In fact, he also suggests you lower gradually to that level based on your relative age and health. From his point of view, the very low carb levels put unncessary stress on the body, and aren't really necessary to achieve the low carb health benefits.
