High Protein- Low Carb- Low Fat Recipes
"Howard H." wrote in message m...
I am currently on a high protein diet, not Adkin's, just a custom diet. I eliminate as many carbs as possible and use as much low fat products while still cooking and eating " normal" foods. Most cookbooks do not combine lo carb, lo fat and high protein in their recipes. My girl and I are interested in recipes that follow these guidelines. Any recipes would really be appreciated. Thanks, Howard I've been low-carbing for over 3 three years using a similar approach to yours, ie. eating real food. I've found that amount of fat consumed has little effect on weight gain or loss. It's not the calories, it is the state of the body which is affected hormonally, ie insulin, by refined carbs. If you are restricting fat to control weight, you will be wasting the most satisfying aspect of good food. If you are restricting fat for fear of heart disease, be aware that the science that suggests that fat causes heart disease is very spotty and highly questionable. I do not concern myself with restricting any fats except for keeping away from margarine and other hydrogenated fats and my blood work is bang-on in terms of good and bad cholesterol. That is after over 3 years of eating this way. TC |
