A little information if often a dangerous thing... and many people trying low carb diets failed miserably in
long-run because they took concept to its extreme figuring that if low-carb diets were good, then no-carb diets must be better? Wrong!One of primary reasons why low carb diets are so successful for a lot of people is that it forces them to remove nutrient-deficient junk food from their daily food intake. In last 20 years average North American diet has become so polluted with refined foods, sugars, and unhealthy fats that average American is now clinically obese!
Low carb diets owe their success to common sense more that any “diet revelation”. When was it ever acceptable to consume donuts, soda pop, Big Macs, deep-fried French fries and pizza on a daily basis? As people’s lives became busier advent of fast food and convenience food grew by leaps and bounds. This was all very convenient for busy families trying to get food on dinner table in time, but only now are we realizing true cost of this convenience.
