Low carb, Paleo, Zone, South Beach…which way to go?

There are so many low carb diets out there, that it can be confusing as to which one to follow, or what is the best way to go.

There’s a really easy way of looking at all this.

First, never diet. All of these diets are based on solid evidence, but you must change your eating habits and the very way you look at various foods, in order to successfully achieve a fit body- but do not put yourself on a diet!

Second, realize that nutrition is going to be an ongoing quest to get right. However, you can be sure of a few things. Eating fruit, nuts, vegetables, grass fed beef, wild caught salmon, olive oil, and coconut oil are going to be a good base for what you eat no matter what. After that, you can start getting fancy and finding out about all the nuances of low carb eating.

That’s really it. It doesn’t have to be confusing or complicated.

Another hint to stay on track is to stay away from mainstream media! It’s easy to fall back to old ways of thinking if you are constantly hearing that messsage. Instead, check out sites like this one, marksdailyapple.com, and robbwolf.com for the latest in nutrition and for Healthy Mind Fit Body, the psychology behind losing weight, as well as the “best of” in nutrition and fitness.

    Hey guys,
    I discovered you when your podcast was mentioned on the Internet Business Mastery podcast. I’ve been catching up on your podcast and have made it to podcast 30. Everything sounds great but I’m new to low carb and have a couple questions that I can’t find on your site. I’m going to buy your book once I get my employment situation figured out (just graduated from college).

    What’s your opinion about dairy? Specifically things like cottage cheese and other cheeses (cheddar, swiss, colby jack, etc.).

    Also, do you have any good resources for recipes and other food ideas? Preferably free? I’ve been eating a lot of meat, nuts, veggies, etc. and a few recipes from the South Beach Diet book but need some more ideas so that I don’t get bored and start eating junk food again.

    Thanks and keep up the good work!
