No single diet will ever be ideal for every single human, but the Low Carbohydrate High Fat lifestyle checks more boxes than perhaps any other; especially for those with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or extra weight around the middle.

 
 

What is LCHF?

  • - a lifestyle high in healthy fats and low in carbohydrates;

    - emphasizes eating whole, unprocessed foods and discourages highly processed, packaged items.

  • The ketogenic diet calls for strict limits on carbohydrates whereas LCHF is lifestyle with more flexibility.

  • Studies show that low carbohydrate nutrition can effectively reverse and manage insulin resistance. By improving blood sugar, you decrease the need for medication and reduce your risk of health complications.
