Too often peo­ple are put off by diets.  “Diet is a four-letter word.  And it begins with die.”  They think more about what they’re going to do with­out, than what they’re going to gain or the goal they’re aim­ing to achieve.  They look at diets as ends in them­selves and there­fore as a life-sentence to foods they don’t like and not enough of those.

I don’t know any­one who goes on a diet just for dieting’s sake.  The secret to suc­cess is to keep the real goal in mind. Think about the ben­e­fits — to lose weight, feel bet­ter, and have much bet­ter con­trol over your dia­betes. You are also greatly delay­ing and pos­si­bly pre­vent­ing life-threatening com­pli­ca­tions down the road.

Besides, this diet doesn’t exactly leave you hun­gry. You can eat all sorts of deli­cious foods and plenty of it.

That’s one of the rea­sons that the low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet is becom­ing more pop­u­lar in the dia­betes community.

Not only that, but the low-carb diet is now gen­er­ally accepted by the dietary and med­ical com­mu­nity.  Even the Amer­i­can Dia­betes Asso­ci­a­tion which for­merly frowned on the low-carbohydrate diet now acknowl­edges it as a legit­i­mate treat­ment (albeit short-term, in their view) for diabetes.

The rea­son to fol­low a low-carbohydrate diet is sim­ple.  Dia­betes is a dis­ease of car­bo­hy­drate intol­er­ance. More car­bo­hy­drates in the diet require more insulin to counter-act them, which is the very oppo­site of what we’re try­ing to do.  Fewer car­bo­hy­drates require less insulin, it’s as sim­ple as that.
