From the top-selling author of The Good Carb Cookbook comes a comprehensive and motivating guide to the good-carb lifestyle. Lately, low-carb diets have been all the rage, but until recently little scientific research has been available regarding their effectiveness and potential health consequences. Now, studies are proving that low-carb diets do work and, contrary to popular belief, they don't pose health risks-if they are done right. But with so many diets to choose from, it is hard for many people to find a program that is realistic for their lifestyle and to which they can adhere. Nationally recognized nutritionist Sandra Woodruff demystifies the process and explains how anyone can tailor a low-carb plan to their individual needs to achieve long-term weight loss. She provides hundreds of delicious recipes, innovative menu plans, instructive cooking tips, and helpful advice for eating out. The healthy eating plan in Secrets of Good-Carb/Low-Carb Living includes lean proteins, healthy fats, and good carbs to not only lose weight but also to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels and help correct metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance. Now anyone can get better results from their low-carb diet or formulate a new eating plan specifically for their needs. With Sandra Woodruff, low-carb living never tasted so good!

Does a High Carb Diet Make You Fat, Hungry, and Lazy? The answer may surprise you, but the science says no The truth is that people can be healthy and lean eating a huge variety of diets. This should tell you that the answer to better health and fat loss isn't found in cutting one specific macronutrient from your diet, like many low-carb gurus would have you believe. So then why has the Paleo diet gotten so much attention lately? Surely some of the claims about carbs, sugar, and insulin must be true, right? Does being a "Fat Burner" Give you Incredible Energy and Melt Off Your Bodyfat? Low-carbers would have you believe that all of our hunter-gatherer ancestors ate low-carb diets and that being a "fat burner" (instead of a "sugar burner") leads to all sorts of magical effects like, boundless energy, superhuman athletic performance, better health--all while it melts off your bodyfat almost overnight. Yet, there's simply no evidence that low-carb diets were standard fare for our hunter-gatherer ancestors--there are countless tribes who ate huge amounts of carbohydrates and were perfectly lean and healthy. The studies are clear that in general, athletes on low-carb diets perform worse, not better. And there is a huge difference between being a "fat burner" and actually burning off your bodyfat. (They aren't the same thing, so don't get confused and be scammed out of your money by falling for this gimmick ). In reality, the science shows all of these claims around being a "fat burner" to be nothing more than a bunch of pseudoscientific myths. Move Beyond the Battle of the Macronutrients... ...and into the new era of health and fat loss In "The Low Carb Myth" by Ari Whitten and Dr. Wade Smith, MD, you'll learn the truth about low-carb diets and what you really need to be doing to lose weight, look great, and be healthy. You'll learn... The secret that's really driving the obesity epidemic (it's not carbs OR fat) The secret that's really driving the diabetes epidemic-it's not sugar or carbs How to break free of carb myths and pseudoscience, and eat carbs again The secret factors that really control your fat loss destiny (No, it's not the carb to fat ratio of your diet) How to finally have better health and a leaner body (without the crazy and unsustainable diets ) Most importantly, they will show you how to put carbs back on your plate while still slashing body fat.

By now, the low-carb diet's refrain is a familiar one: Bread is bad for you. Fat doesn't matter. Carbs are the real reason you can't lose weight. The low-carb universe Dr. Atkins brought into being continues to expand. Low-carb diets, from South Beach to the Zone and beyond, are still the go-to method for weight-loss for millions. These diets' marketing may differ, but they all share two crucial components: the condemnation of “carbs" and an emphasis on meat and fat for calories. Even the latest diet trend, the Paleo diet, is—despite its increased focus on (some) whole foods—just another variation on the same carbohydrate fears. In The Low-Carb Fraud, longtime leader in the nutritional science field T. Colin Campbell (author of The China Study and Whole) outlines where (and how) the low-carb proponents get it wrong: where the belief that carbohydrates are bad came from, and why it persists despite all the evidence to the contrary. The foods we misleadingly refer to as “carbs" aren't all created equal—and treating them that way has major consequences for our nutritional well-being. If you're considering a low-carb diet, read this e-book first. It will change the way you think about what you eat—and how you should be eating, to lose weight and optimize your health, now and for the long term.
