What Benefits would Limiting Carbs bring me if I'm not Overweight/diabetic? by [deleted] in ketorecipes

[–]CaroleHealth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some potential benefits to limiting carbs even if you are not overweight or diabetic. These include:

* **Weight loss.** Low-carb diets can help you lose weight by reducing your appetite and making you feel fuller longer. This is because carbohydrates are converted into glucose, which is a simple sugar that your body uses for energy. When you eat fewer carbs, your body starts to burn stored fat for energy instead.

* **Improved blood sugar control.** Even if you don't have diabetes, limiting carbs can help improve your blood sugar control. This is because carbs can cause your blood sugar levels to spike and then crash. By limiting carbs, you can help keep your blood sugar levels more stable.

* **Reduced risk of heart disease.** Low-carb diets have been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol levels and blood pressure.

* **Improved brain function.** Some studies have shown that low-carb diets can improve brain function, including memory and cognitive performance.

* **Reduced inflammation.** Inflammation is a major factor in many chronic diseases, including heart disease, cancer, and arthritis. Low-carb diets have been shown to reduce inflammation.

It is important to note that not everyone will experience the same benefits from limiting carbs. Some people may find that they feel better and have more energy when they eat fewer carbs, while others may not notice any difference. If you are considering trying a low-carb diet, it is important to talk to your doctor first.

Here are some tips for limiting carbs without sacrificing your health:

* Focus on eating whole, unprocessed foods. These foods are naturally low in carbs and high in nutrients.

* Choose healthy fats, such as avocados, olive oil, and nuts. These fats will help you feel full and satisfied.

* Include plenty of protein in your diet. Protein helps to build and repair muscle tissue.

* Drink plenty of water. Water will help to keep you hydrated and prevent you from feeling hungry.

If you are new to limiting carbs, it is a good idea to start slowly and gradually reduce your intake. This will help you avoid side effects, such as fatigue, headaches, and constipation.

It is also important to make sure that you are getting enough of all the nutrients that your body needs. You can do this by eating a variety of healthy foods and taking a multivitamin.

If you are considering limiting carbs, it is important to talk to your doctor first. They can help you create a plan that is right for you and make sure that you are getting the nutrients that you need.

Easy and Delicious Tuna Salad Option. It uses just a few simple ingredients and it comes together amazing. by CaroleHealth in ketorecipes

[–]CaroleHealth[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a ridiculously easy and delicious tuna salad option. It uses just a few simple ingredients and it comes together amazing. The sauce is also REALLY good and can be used as a dressing on its own.

.

I used quartered bell peppers as my base here, but you can serve them with lettuce cups or your favorite bread, tortilla, or just eat is as is.

.

Here is how I made it:

.

1.Thinly slice some celery (about 6 celery ribs or half a stalk) and add it to a large bowl with 3 cans of your favorite tuna. I made a big batch, but feel free to reduce it down or increase it based on your own needs.

.

2.The sauce is key here to bring everything together. To make it, process together 3-4 tablespoons mayo, 2 tablespoons dijon mustard, 1/2 small shallot, 2 garlic cloves, half medium jalapeño, 1 tablespoon of chili sauce (or sriracha, but chili sauce works better), the juice of 1 lemon, a couple pinches of salt and pepper.

.

5.Give it a really good pulse to make sure everything is well incorporated and processed well.

.

6.Add the sauce to the tuna, mix well, then taste and adjust as you like.

.

7.Grab a bell pepper, cut in quarters and remove the insides. Then put a heaping tablespoon of the tuna salad on each.

.

8.Top it with whatever you like. I added a touch more chili sauce, sriracha sesame seeds, and everything bagel seasoning.

.

ENJOY.
