RE: 1 Week Into My Low Carbohydrate, High Protein Vegan Diet.. Lessons Learned & Food Ideas!

in #health6 years ago

These are some great meals, looking delicious!

But 30-40% carb for low carb o.O?

Why not more fat instead :D? The fat from Avocado and beans that you have is not bad :D.

Thanks, I am still personally learning about these issues, but this link goes into more depth as to why higher protein is a good choice..

In terms of fat vs. carbs - one relevant aspect is that fat has twice as much calories per gram as carbs, so you would need to eat significantly less to get the right carbs for you - which may or may not be an issue depending on each individual's needs. I am sure I will be able to give a more detailed response once I have learned more!
