Low Carb Eating Introduction
No matter who you are or where you happen to come from, you have undoubtedly heard all about the various low carb diets, and you might be wondering what its all about. If so, then good for you! The last thing you want to do is jump into a diet if youre not sure what it will do to your system. The first thing you need to know of course, is what a carbohydrate is. The official definition is a group of organic compounds in foods and other living tissues. These can include cellulose, starch and sugars. Assuming you are active, you can eat as many carbohydrates as you want, but most people will need to control their food intake.
What are the benefits of a low carb diet exactly? There are quite a few, actually, though it should be noted that some of the results have yet to be scientifically proven. Oftentimes these results happen within two weeks, and they can include increased energy, reduced cravings for sweets, higher concentration, and even an improved mood. Compulsive eating usually disappears, and at some point the individual will start to notice improved dental hygiene.
While the side effects we mentioned above are fairly common, there are some that are not so common. For example, there are some who claim an improvement in chronic joint or muscle pain, and those with constant headaches also report a major improvement. These improvements also include gastrointestinal symptoms like heartburn, and a vast change in skin appearance. One other rarely reported improvement, one that has yet to be proven is a improvement in PMS. While it might be considered a long shot, you have nothing to lose by giving it a try.
To be perfectly honest, this book is a goldmine of recipes and routines, all of which are designed around getting you the weight youve always wanted. As you open this book for the first time you will probably notice that it is full of gluten free recipes. These, for the most part, will include wheat free recipes such as honey sweetened bread, the wheat free bagel, and even a cheesy bacon and broccoli dish. Your choices when it comes to mean planning are virtually limitless.
One of the biggest problems when undertaking a diet of course is the simple fact that you will have temptation to deal with. This temptation is a matter of course. Everywhere you look, you have to contend with sweets, high fat foods, and bad carbohydrates. Honestly, every retail store seems to have some type of deli, and they tend to place the most fattening foods right out front. To make it even worse, theyll even package it for you! If that isnt a temptation, we dont know what is. That said, you need to start your diet as soon as possible. Before you start it however, you may want to get any cravings out of your system. Have that greasy sandwich, eat that chicken leg, or finally, down that 64 oz steak that youve had your eye on. Think of it as your last meal before the diet. As we said before however, once you start your diet in earnest, many of the cravings you previously had will simply disappear. You will begin to enjoy the recipes in this book, and eventually, you will begin to integrate other recipes into your diet. If you really want it to be effective, try creating your very own meal plans. From Sunday, al the way to Saturday, you can create an incredible meal plan using the recipes listed right here in this ebook. In addition to that, you might take ideas from other ebooks to create an incredible variety. Before you know it, youll have a great routine that leads you to a healthier state of being.
Unlike many other ebooks on this subject, this one contains medical evidence, assuring that there is validity in these claims. From the medical research, to the medical benefits, you will find that everything is supported, and your health is at the forefront. In addition to that, there is a beginners guide to the Mediterranean diet and using it to your advantage. This diet is not a fad, nor is it harmful like the Atkins diet.
At the end of the book you will find a health and wellness guide dedicated to teaching you proper procedures. For example, how to eat, when to eat, and how to treat your body, and gain the maximum results.
Each chapter in this book discusses a different course, allowing you to carve out your diet rather than simply giving you one. You must remember that you and you alone are in control of the diet in its entirety. You have the ability to make it work, even if it might seem impossible at the moment.

Chapter 1: Cooking Wheat Free What Does it Mean and What are the Benefits?
If you have decided to start eating wheat free or your doctor has recommended a wheat free diet, you may wonder what cooking wheat free really means. Many people mistake a wheat free diet for a gluten free diet. While they do have some similarities, they are not the same. While wheat does have gluten in it, other grains can have gluten as well. This means that wheat free foods may still have gluten in them, which is important for individuals to consider if they need to avoid both wheat and gluten. If you are just avoiding wheat and not gluten, you do have some extra options when you change your diet. A wheat free diet includes avoiding anything that contains wheat or wheat by products.
