Carbohdrates give the body energy and starchy carbohydrates go straight into the muscles and the liver and carb blockers are supposed to stop carbohydrate passing through your system.
Carbohydrates
also hold water and when carbohydrates are reduced the body loses weight by drying out and subsequently losing muscle stores.
All fruit and
vegetable matter has fibre and the body needs fibre to help get rid of waste. One of the problems of extreme low carb diet plans such as the Atkins diet is that the continual reduction of carbohydrate can lead to the digestive system slowing down causing constipation.
The human body only needs about 21 grams of fibre a day but if you leading a low carbohydrate diet this can be difficult to reach.
You need to be careful if the reason you have chosen a low carbohydrate diet is due to a lifestyle that does not involve a lot of exercise.
Do carb blockers work?
If you want to follow a low carb diet but are not disciplined you can use carb blockers in association with a low carb diet and exercise. Good carb blockers like Dietrine that use natural ingredients are reported to block up to 70% of carbs going through your body.
Low carb easy diet plans still need to give you enough fibre
The amount of carbohydrate that your body needs depends on your level of activity and your weight with those who are very active and
do a lot of heavy work or weight lifting needing the most carbohydrate.
The Atkins diet was the pioneer of the low carb diet advocating reducing daily carbohydrate intake to around 10 to 20 grams per day. The Atkins
diet saw many followers suffer constipation and as a result has reduced in popularity.
The Atkins diet has largely been replaced by natural slimming low carb easy diet plans which sometimes include carb blockers and which rank carbs according to their impact on blood sugar levels and diets that advocate non starchy high fibre carbohydrates like salads and low sugar fruits.
The Atkins diet, which at certain stages, recommends reducing carbohydrates to a low 10-20g a day and saw many converts suffer constipation, has sunk from popularity.
Its place has been taken by the Glycaemic index trend, an old system rather than a diet, which ranks carbohydrates according to their impact on blood sugar levels.
