A low carb diet is a type of diet that reduces the amount of carbohydrates consumed in order to promote weight loss and better health. This type of diet typically limits the amount of carbohydrates eaten to between 50–150 grams per day, with the majority of the carbohydrates coming from non-starchy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and some fruits. The goal of a low carb diet is to reduce the body’s reliance on glucose for energy, which can help to reduce hunger and cravings, and promote weight loss. Additionally, this type of diet can help to reduce blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol levels, and reduce the risk of certain chronic diseases.
