I always get this question, "Why don't we hear the health authorities and health experts preach about low carbohydrate if it is really so good? All they preach about is the "balanced diet" and the food pyramid.
Yes, I agree that we do not hear anything about low carbohydrate spoken by the health experts and authorities; in fact, they are very much against it.
The experts claims that we need to have a balanced diet according to the food pyramid which is high in carbohydrate, a little of vegetables and vegetable, lesser meat and very little oil and fats.
So, we end up believing them because they are the experts.
If you did not know, data reveal that obesity level is exploding at an alarming rate. If what the experts preached about balanced is really helping people, then why is obesity level going upward?
Because the balanced diet do not help lose weight, the food pyramid do not help lose weight, the real main cause of obesity is carbohydrate and the food pyramid precisely fuel the body to put on fats, hence the exploding level in obesity rate.
But the health experts and authorities are the experts, are we not supposed to believe them?
Do the experts really know everything and the truth?
Let me ask you a question, is the Earth round (spherical) or flat?
Of course everyone knows that the Earth is round.
If you claim that the Earth is round back in the 16th century, you would be label as a fool. Everyone and every experts claim that the Earth was flat, it was thought that if you "travel to the edge of the earth, you will fall off (like a waterfall with an infinite bottom)".
The experts told everyone that the Earth was flat, and everyone believed them.
It was until Ferdinand Magellan's; despite all that the experts say discover that the Earth is indeed round in shape and sailed around the world. If everyone, including Ferdinand believed what the experts say, maybe today we will still think that the Earth is flat.
Another question to ponder your thoughts, do the Earth revolve around the Sun or do the Sun revolve around the Earth?
Of course, it is the Earth revolving around the Sun.
Did you know that at one time, it was believed that the Earth is not moving but it is the Sun revolving instead? People would think that you are crazy if you claim that it is the other way around.
I hope that this article opened your mind about low carbohydrate and not to take the words and advices of the experts and authorities easily.
I personally testify and thousands online (you can check them out) that the low carbohydrate will help you to lose weight. I personally lost over 20 kilograms in 7 months, simply by learning to cut out carbohydrate from my every day meals.
Once you start cutting out carbohydrate, your body starts to burn fat without any exercises, but it will compliment the diet perfectly if you take up some exercises.
