Low-Carb High-Fat: A Paradigm Shift in Nutrition
Abstract
Gone are the days when doctors would advise their patients to minimize fatty foods and use non-caloric artificial sweeteners as substitute for table sugar, and nutritionists would recommended avoiding fat for weight- loss and to get rid of that extra pound protruding from your body. However, a number of recent studies argue in favour of a paradigm shift in nutrition- from high crab low fat diet ( a typical South Asian diet) to low- crab high fat diet( Mediterranean, East Asian, Atkins, or Paleo diets)
