Low Carb Diets

The more popular low carb dieting became the more low-carb diets and products manufactures introduced to you the consumer. A few of the low-carb diets like the South Beach Diet distinguish between the beneficial and harmful fats but this just isn’t the case with all low-carb diets and products on the market. As a result many of the low-carb products are high in saturated and trans-fats, the type of fat that has long been known to lead to heart disease.

In the beginning those on low-carb diets do lose weight faster but by the end of the year there is neither significant difference in weight loss or health benefits in any other area. There are ample studies that a diet high in saturated and trans-fats put you at high risk for such diseases as heart, diabetes and cancer.
