Every 15-20 years the low-carb diet is resurrected under a different name. In the late 60’s Irwin Stillman popularized the “Stillman Diet”. In the early 70's, Robert Atkins of the "Atkin's Diet" fame brought low-carb back to the forefront. He didn't have much success with it at the time, but had MASSIVE success when it returned in the early 1990's.

It's now 2019 and the low carb has been re-branded as the "ketogenic diet" and it is hotter than Houston in September.

It'll be around a while I have a feeling so let's dig in a little and talk about the science behind low-carb diets.

Today we are going to focus on what actually happens to your body when you restrict carbohydrates to make you better educated on the entire scenario.

Food packaging is ridiculous. Companies know that we have short attention spans and that we’re on a mission to look for healthy options.

Often they use these facts to confuse and mislead us by plastering the front of the package with buzzwords and bolt font highlighting things that we believe to be “healthy” all while hiding the ugly truth.
