This diet ranges from eating a variety of lean meats, fruits, and vegetables with a small amount of whole grains, to the extreme of eating only meat, nuts and dairy products.

The core theory of a low carb diet is to remove insulin spiking foods from the diet and replace them with foods that allow for a sustained release of energy and have better nutritional profiles. What are insulin spiking foods? White bread, refined sugar, and high starch vegetables like carrots, corn, peas and potatoes. Better choices are dark green vegetables and whole grains. The low-carbohydrate diet is a good choice for diabetics.
