10 Low Carb Foods
Low Carb Food #3: Meat
As omnivores, we have evolved to eat meat in addition to fruits and vegetables. Meat is an excellent source of many essential nutrients, particularly protein and important fats. It is also tasty, comes in many flavours, and can be used extensively in cooking. Another solid benefit of having meat in your diet is that it is low in carbohydrates. In fact, most meats contain no carbohydrates at all.
If you are on a low-carb, high-fat diet then you are free to eat high-fat joints for extra flavour. Just remember to lay off sauces that might add and other high-carb accompaniments such as pasta and rice. Eat plenty of meat without the carbs, and you may well find that you soon begin to lose excess fat.
