Low Glycemic Diets Help to Stabilize Your Mood and Boost Your Stamina

By Kathryn Barry

Low Glycemic Diets usually contain a decent amount of animal foods and not so much fruits or grains.

Why Should You Be Aware of Carbohydrates?

Glucose is a simple sugar that your body and especially your brain uses for energy. Mainly to be found in foods that contain carbohydrates or sugar.

Your brain relies on glucose for functions like learning and your muscles rely on glucose as its fuel to get you around.

You might think it's okay to indulge in carbohydrates because it's good for your brain. However, while a little glucose seems to be a good thing, too much glucose has the opposite effect.

Two Low Glycemic Diets I Personally Experienced

The Atkin's Diet involves the restriction of carbohydrates in order to get your body to burn it's own fat. Your body prefers to burn glucose over fat which is why the restriction of carbohydrates is necessary.

Glucose from carbohydrates is first in line and will be metabolized before fat. This will create fat storage instead of fat burning when too many carbohydrates are consumed.

I did this diet for about 3 years and I felt like super woman. I was able to work 6 days a week, care for my young child, and cook most of my own meals.

Because I only needed about 6 hours of rest every night, this enabled me to get a lot done during this time period.

Taking really good natural-supplements helped this diet tremendously and I noticed when I stopped taking them the diet became harder to do.

My Favorite Low Glycemic Diet

The Primal Diet is very similar to the Atkin's Diet, but there are a few differences.

Watching your carbohydrate intake is much easier on this diet because grains and legumes are not part of this raw food diet. Fruit is also not a big part and only small portions are suggested. Supplements are not required and mineral water is the only suggested water to drink.

Raw animal products such as raw dairy and raw meats make up most of this diet. Drinking your vegetables is recommended over chewing them and raw coconut cream is one of the fats used.

I absolutely loved raw milk and even gave this to my young child. I noticed she had no dental cavities while drinking raw milk, but when I stopped the raw milk along came the tooth decay.

My endurance was greatly affected by the consumption of raw eggs and raw meat. It is actually very filling and satisfying food.

The soothing effect of eating raw fats helped me to experience a grounding type of calmness that I will never forget. I wasn't 100% raw because of the social aspect of this diet and still was able to achieve a state of health I now crave again. - 17268
