September 22, 2006, Newsletter Issue #33: How Many Carb Grams Is In a Low Carb Diet?

Tip of the Week

A diet is considered a low carbohydrate one if you consume below 100 effective carb grams a day (total carbs minus fiber grams) but most of such diets start with more serious carbohydrate limitation to induce ketosis.

The bad news is, only the clinical ketogenic diet and the ketogenic diet used by bodybuilders really calculate how much carbs get into your blood-stream because if you don't count the protein to fat to carb ratio, you cant tell whether your diet is truly ketogenic or not.

The only diet designed for regular dieters that pre-calculates the ketogenic ratio (so called "Fat Burning Index") is bantadiet.com - it's available online and is free so there's no risk for you in taking a look.
