The Low-Carb Comfort Food Cookbook

If you’re searching for a diet program, consider the low-carb diet. For many people, this diet has provided excellent results, including weight loss, lower blood pressure, lower blood sugar, lower triglycerides, and amazingly, even lower cholesterol levels. The diet, however, is not for everyone. Some people have no enegy on this program, while others seem to thrive on it.

An important aspect to remember is that this is a LOW-carb diet – not a NO-carb diet. You need some carbs to maintain your health, and according to my doctor, a no-carb diet can do severe damage to your liver and kidneys.

What can you eat on this diet? Any meat, fish, fowl, or eggs. You can also eat most cheeses, butter, mayonnaise, ranch dressing, Italian dressing, and cooking oils. Low-carb veggies include green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, mustard greens, collard greens, turnip greens, lettuce, green onions, asparagus, yellow squash, zucchini, mushrooms, cabbage, peppers, red onions, tomatoes, and Brussels sprouts. You can also have cream and low-carb real whipped cream. Dill pickles and artificially-sweetend pickles and relishes are fine.

Beverages you can have regularly on a low-carb diet include unsweetened coffee and tea, along with diet sodas. Diet Hawaiian Punch is artificially sweetened, and it has lots of vitamin C. For milk, try the Hood low-carb, low-calorie milk. The chocolate milk is awesome, and it satisfies your taste for something sweet, rich, and chocolatey, and it will provide needed calcium.

Approved desserts include low-carb cheesecake, low-carb pumpkin pie, low-carb sweet potato pie, low-carb ice cream, artificially-sweetened egg custards, low-carb yogurt, and sugar-free puddings. Even though these have much fewer carbs than their sugar-laden counterparts, they do have a significant amount of carbohydrates, so eat them occasionally, for a treat.

What you need to avoid on this diet: potatoes, corn, carrots, acorn squash, butternut squash, regular pasta, white rice, white flour, sugar, peas, most fruits, regular milk, and bread.

200 Low-Carb Slow Cooker Recipes: Healthy Dinners That Are Ready When You Are!

Just a moment before you pick up that low-carb salad dressing from the grocery store shelf. Low cal, low carb, reduced fat, reduced carbs, and other so called healthy promotional phrases may all take on a entirely new meaning in the not too distant future.

FDA Deputy Commissioner Lester Crawford has indicated a food content labeling mandate will probably cause a substantial number of products to have their labels changed. Crawford indicated it will be an effort to “demystify the current confusion about carbohydrates.”

Many food makers have jumped on the “low-carb” band wagon. Companies hawk everything from traditional creamy and/or vinaigrette salad dressings, to low-carbohydrate Easter chocolate, as formulated and manufactured reduced in calories and carbs.

The FDA is concerned how food producing companies count carbohydrates, as it varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Some do indeed significantly cut carbohydrates. Others promote their products as reduced-carb, but only cut a single gram per serving. Surprisingly, these are priced to cost more too. Then there are some companies that leave ingredients out of their carb-count altogether. In some instances these practices actually yield good results. Take for example some breads: carbohydrates are cut by increasing fiber content, this is a change many low-carb critics embrace because most Americans don’t consume enough fiber.

As early as this summer, the FDA plans to determine precisely how many carbohydrates are allowed for a food product to be promoted or advertised as low-carb or reduced-carb.

It is expected the Food and Drug Administration will also tell the food manufacturers how they should count the grams as well.

The mystery, what exactly is ‘low-carb’?

Until FDA defines the terms, “reduced carb” or “low carb” these promotional descriptions will not be allowed on food labels. In fact the FDA has ordered some companies to quit using them. Pure De-Lite stopped labeling its dark chocolate bar “low-carb.” The manufacturer of Nature’s Own Wheat ‘n Fiber bread decided to change its name from the original “reduced carbohydrate” just before receiving FDA’s directive last year.

One trade group, the Grocery Manufacturers of America, represents most major brands. They have petitioned the Food and Drug Administration to define “low-carb” as 9 grams of carbohydrates per 100 grams of food, determined as a typical serving.

GMA nutrition director Alison Kretser, is not endorsing any particular weight-loss plan, but believes putting carbs on a level playing field with fat and other food ingredients is fair and prudent.

CSPI is a consumer advocacy group who wants low-carb defined as 6 grams per serving, and for “reduced carb” foods to have at least twenty-five percent less carbohydrates than original product versions.

You would think we could “all just get along” by eating green salads and using home made vinaigrette recipe dressings wouldn’t you?
