Salt Lake City, UT, April 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Keto or low-carb dieting has become a trusted way to lose weight fast for over a century. Though it has taken on many names and forms, drastically reducing one’s intake of carbohydrates and sugars makes a world of difference for conditions such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, candida, and several others. Diet Doc – the nation’s leading medical weight loss program, suggests that consumers understand a few key principles of the keto diet before getting started, because like most dietary changes, there can be a few drawbacks for dieters if they have not gotten proper medical advice beforehand.
To begin, keep in mind that low-carb diets revolve around the glycemic index. The glycemic index is a numeric marker, indicating the impact that certain foods have on one’s blood glucose levels. When reducing carbs and sugar from the diet, it’s important to first understand where your current blood sugar levels stand. Diabetics or pre-diabetics should consult with their physician on the right balance of carbs and/or insulin to maintain their health. However, for those mainly interested in weight loss, selecting carbs on the lower end of the glycemic index is a great start (this usually results in a high vegetable or fruit diet).
Be sure that you avoid kicking carbs entirely. Many dieters make the mistake of eliminating high-fiber carbs, important grains, along with several key vitamins and minerals in the process. Another concern is the overconsumption of protein, which has famously occurred on the South Beach or Atkins diets. Eating large amounts of protein with saturated fat to replace carbs might result in some pounds lost, but it can also have negative impacts on the heart and surrounding arteries. Ensure that you still maintain a balanced diet with lean proteins and veggies to protect your heart. If you are an active person, cutting carbs drastically can result in low energy/performance, as well as reduced muscle gain. That’s why Diet Doc offers low-carb programs and powerful carb-blocking medications that are medically-supervised and tailored to your unique weight loss and health specifications.
