Adhering to the low carb diet is much easier when you have low carb recipes that also contain a good amount of protein and healthy fat. This is what the Low Carb Mug Meals Cookbook presents to you.

The low-carb, ketogenic diet provides an effective way to lose weight and become healthier. Most of the recipes in this book have less than 10g of carbs per serving and they will give your weight loss goals an extreme boost! Your body will lose weight almost effortlessly, you will start dropping those stubborn pounds and your health will be rejuvenated. Lets take a quick look at the science behind the success of the low-carbohydrate diet. Carbohydrates consist of glucose, a type of sugar. When glucose gets into the body, it provides the fuel needed by the cells for everyday work. Cells need a lot of energy for breathing, blood flow and the various continuous activities of a living body.

This energy is provided in the form of glucose. When you eat food that gives your body the glucose it requires continually, the body does not have to get additional fuel from stored fat cells. Therefore, the fat cells will not reduce and you will keep on adding weight. When a person turns to a low-carbohydrate diet, the natural supply of glucose from meals is restricted. The body cells are no longer getting all the glucose they need continually from food and they have to look to other sources. The fat and protein eaten in the low-carbohydrate diet are taken through a process called ketosis.

The body works hard to transfer the fat and protein to glucose in your liver. This requires the burning of a larger amount of calories than if you were eating carbohydrate-dense foods. Furthermore, when your diet is limited in carbohydrate, your blood sugar levels will not be impacted. You will not experience spikes in blood sugar levels with the attendant boost in insulin levels. After a spike in blood glucose levels, the individual usually has a craving for sugary foods which leads to eating a lot of carbs. On the other hand, when your carbohydrate intake is controlled, you can easily regulate your appetite since sugar cravings are minimal.
