The problems associated with reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Elevated consumption of animal-based products could lead into high consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which a few authorities believe will increase the probability of heart conditions.
Remember, one point that is frequently overlooked, it is damned hard (though by no means impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a reduced carbohydrate diet.

(inlcudes onion, brussels sprouts, soya beans & tea)
The large family of compounds known as flavonoids found in these food types are thought by experts to have properties in fighting cancer.
