INTRODUCTION
How to Use This Book he high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet has been the longest uncontrolled nutritional experiment in history. The results have not been good. Perhaps you've noticed.
Perhaps you have been one of its victims. You're unable to lose weight, or if you have lost, it certainly hasn't been easy. You found yourself constantly fighting cravings, you were hungry a lot of the time, and you suffered with feelings of deprivation. You felt fatigued, like you were running on empty, and were still always battling the bulge, mostly unsuccessfully. |

Here's another interesting point in all of this -- when your body adds fat during this process of converting blood sugar to body fat, it has a blueprint of where to put that fat. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Then, when low carb came into vogue and consumers began to be (rightly) concerned with controlling their blood sugar, potatoes became "vegetable non grata" at the dinner table, because they raise your blood sugar quickly, producing a lot of the fat-storing hormone insulin. That's why regular old white potatoes didn't make my list of the world's healthiest foods. I just don't think they have enough nutritional wallop to counterbalance their effect on blood sugar. By the time it gets to your stomach, the body sees white potatoes as just a big lump of sugar. | | They write, coproduce, and host the PBS show low carb CookwoRx and can be reached at www.proteinpower.com.

"Any time you add different foods together, you get another response that would be different from the glycemic load or glycemic index of a food by itself," Dr. Bowden explains. "The glycemic impact of any meal is a product of the interaction of the different macronutrients—carbs, fats, and protein, and, of course, fiber. Usually the glycemic index alone is not a good way to choose foods. I like the glycemic load, but it's still not perfect, because it still only talks about foods in isolation. | | Although all low-carb diets differ in certain respects, all are based on the fact that food has a profound effect on hormones, including the fat-storage and fat-release hormones," explains Living the low carb Life author Dr. Jonny Bowden.
"The foundation of the low-carbohydrate movement has been the theory that controlling hormones by what foods you eat is at least as important for weight loss as calories are," adds Dr. Bowden, noting that regulating insulin and controlling blood sugar levels are central to the theory of all carb-watching diets.
But Dr. | | But amidst the reports about low carb's demise, most observers were missing the big picture. First of all, despite the naysayers, low-carb dieting in some form or another is here to stay, according to Opinion Dynamics, a market research firm that has tracked the movement since 2003.
"We expect it to stabilize at between 7 to 15 percent of the population [or about 15 million to 33 million people]," says Larry Shiman, vice president of the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based, full-service market research company, which specializes in the food industry. | | The legacy of the trend is that for many dieters, low carb still plays a substantial role."
Whether or not carb-restricted diets work (and upwards of 23 studies indicate they do, at least over the short term), the trend has had far-reaching implications. Before he died in 2003, Robert C. Atkins, M.D., was one of the more outspoken physicians to alert the public to the dangers of inferior, fiber-stripped carbohydrates and sugars.
Although the late diet doctor is, of course, best known for launching his much-criticized or much-lauded (depending upon with whom you're talking) low-carb diet, Dr. |

See book keywords and concepts |  In my opinion, a low carb diet is the absolute best strategy for dealing with PCOS naturally. It doesn't mean that other things won't help, but rather that the first place to begin is with diet. In fact, according to many experts, one of the biggest contributors to PCOS is poor diet, especially a high intake of refined carbohydrates. Because insulin resistance is such a huge contributor to the PCOS, a diet that helps control blood sugar and insulin is the first order of business. |

The recent desperate attempt of the food industry to boost sluggish sales of their products, after the dampening effects of the low carb craze, has caused it to heavily invest in serious "scientific" research to prove that their unhealthy products are not just safe, but even good for you. Although hard to believe, chocolate is now being pushed as a health food. Add chocolate to your healthy diet, and your heart health will improve. At least, this is what they are now trying to make you believe. | | Shortly thereafter, nutritionists considered them good for slimming, and the latest low carb craze dismisses them as junk food. Torn between various health doctrines, we look for perfect answers to our problems. In the end, when your body is exhausted because of trying to adjust to one diet after another, you may begin to realize that your body's requirements are totally unique and that they undergo constant changes, often from one day to the next. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Let me tell you how important this is: If you've read my other books—especially Living the low carb Life—you remember that insulin is an important hormone with multiple purposes that's made by the pancreas. Your body releases insulin when blood sugar goes up, as it does when you eat food, especially carbohydrates.
Insulin's jobs include escorting excess sugar in the bloodstream to the cells where it can be burned for energy. But in at least 2 5 percent of the population, this metabolic pathway doesn't work properly. |

See article keywords and concepts | | I'm not a huge supporter of the low carb lifestyle as practiced by most Americans, although I do support the avoidance of all processed carbohydrates as recommended by the Atkins program and other low carb dieting systems such as the Hamptons Diet.
Consuming refined carbs and added sugars will put weight on your body faster than any other nutritional strategy. The way to take it off is to avoid these foods for the rest of your life.

See article keywords and concepts |  People tried the Atkins Diet or the low carb diet, and for many people that didn't work. People tried the low fat diet years ago -- well that didn't work, because everybody just loaded up on carbohydrates and cookies. People tried all kinds of other things -- they tried stimulants, things that make you shake all day long because you have a lot of caffeine in your system. And gee, they found out that didn't work either, because it just made them hungrier.
So, typically, it's not the effort that stops people. It's the reliability of the system. Finding out what really works is the hardest part. |

Here's another interesting point in all of this -- when your body adds fat during this process of converting blood sugar to body fat, it has a blueprint of where to put that fat. For most women, the fat goes on the buttocks and the hips, potentially on the breasts, and eventually under the arms. For men, most of the that weight goes right to the belly, the gut, and only later will it move up to the chest area, the bottom of the neck, and maybe the buttocks and legs as well. |

See book keywords and concepts |  High protein, low carb . . . they're concepts that have dominated nutrition discussions in recent years. What's the truth? First, a very brief chemistry lesson: much of our body, including muscles, organs, skin, hair, and enzymes, is made primarily of protein. Protein is in every cell and is necessary for life. Protein, in turn, is composed of amino acids. Some amino acids are manufactured by the body. Nine others called essential amino acids must come from the foods we eat. |
