Carb Dieting Secrets
DIETING SUCCESS TIP NO.
12: CONSIDER EATING SALMON OR MACKREL FOR
BREAKFAST
Yes this may seem odd, but it is one way to work in
Omega-3
fatty acids that are good for you and add some variety to your daily
diet. After a few months you may tire of eating eggs and bacon
for breakfast. Substituting fish will give you the protein and
healthy fish oils you need.
You can try canned salmon or mackerel in croquettes for a healthier
sausage substitute. Or you could simply eat cold leftover salmon
the next morning with dill sauce.
SUCCESS TIP NO. 13: USE LETTUCE LEAVES INSTEAD OF BREAD
This tip can seem a bit odd at first but if you try it you will
probably grow to love it. Instead of eating breads and buns with
your sandwiches and hamburgers, why not try leaves of lettuce?
You can make a double cheeseburger with onions, pickles and tomato
wrapped in a whole lettuce leaf. Or you can make tasty wrap
sandwiches with lettuce instead of tortilla and bread.
This will help increase your good carb and fiber intake while giving
you more variety in your diet.
SUCCESS TIP NO. 14: EAT A FRUIT DESSERT
Okay, we all want a little dessert sometime, but how do you have your
dessert and your low-carb diet too? Why not try cheese with fruit
slices or berries? Better yet, why not try cream with
berries? You could even try sweet pineapples or strawberries with
cottage cheese?
Berries are sweet and high in fiber and nutrients and dairy products
are high in protein. If your low-carb plan will allow it, this is
a sweet and tasty alternative to more sugary desserts.
An added benefit is that the protein in the dairy products and the
fiber in the fresh fruit will make these desserts more filling.

Low Carb vs. High
by: Moss Greene
Low carb diets can be classified as food plans that require keeping carbohydrates as low as 3% and never more than about 25 to 30%. This is much lower than the 50 to 60% recommended by most good scientists and valid research. Low carb diets include programs like Atkins, Protein Power, The Zone, Sugar Busters and the South Beach diet.
As you can see by the chart below, the Ornish and Pritikin diets at 70% and 80% carbs, are definitely high carb. One means used to distract people’s attention away from the fact that the Atkins diet is basically an unhealthy food plan is to compare a low carb diet to a high carb diet. However, neither one is the best solution.
