Low Carb High Protein Diets

With the explosion of so many new diets flooding the world today promising extreme weight loss, many health professionals are concerned with people’s health. One popular diet of today that is raising many red flags with these professionals is the low carbohydrate/high protein diet.

First, too much protein is very hard for the body to break down and can damage the kidneys and liver. Second, high protein usually means high in fat, which can lead to cardiovascular problems. Third, the expense involved and repetitious nature of the diet may make it difficult to sustain. Finally, one will tend to crave simple sugars from a diet such as this. This is due to the fact that there is such a carbohydrate restriction.
