Hollywood Diets Plans That Work: Low Carb and Slow Carb

Low Carb diets made such a huge splash with Atkins in 2002 that about 10% of American adults were on the diet in 2003. The fervor quickly died down as nutritionists frowned at the focus on high-fat meat and the exclusion of many fruits and vegetables. It did, however, change how many Americans view carbohydrates, or “carbs”, and a general mainstream shift away from low-fat dieting.

Although low-carb is not as popular as it once was, many of the diets now in vogue do focus on ‘good carbs’ over ‘bad carbs‘. The Paleo diet, Ketogenic diet, and low glycemic diets are all types of lower carb diets. Even Atkins has a new focus which includes fruit but still limits ’empty’ foods like white bread.
