Episode #4 Dropping the Fat
Low carb and Atkins induction phase uncovered
Many people think that the induction phase of a low carb diet is just used at the beginning of the diet but in truth it can have many uses. It’s the part of a low carb diet where carb intake is at it’s most restricted but strangely enough – while some people find it a little difficult to begin with it is probably the one part of the diet that people find the easiest to follow. In this episode I unlock why that is and outline a few of these alternate uses – some of which may surprise you.
Burning Question – Do we need vitamin and mineral supplements
Vitamins and minerals are again a minefield. Some experts say you need them – some are adamant you don’t. If you do take them, which ones should you take? The answer is actually fairly straightforward as we’ll see in the program. Would you be surprised to learn that a few of the most eminent experts have changed sides and now agree with me or maybe they’ve just given into common sense.
Healthy Clicks – Tasty treats in store at this rather good web resource
Find something good to eat can often be a bit of a chore. I’ve been all over the web and to be frank there are many recipes labelled as low carb that are about as low carb as candy floss. Also many people try to adapt say dessert recipes by just substituting artificial sweeteners in place of the sugar – sometimes this works and the dish turns out fine. But why poison yourself? Anyway, in this item we visit one of the better web resources -an excellent website that allows you free access to many of it’s excellent tried and tested recipes and you don’t even have to sign up.
