Guest guest Posted October 14, 2002 Report Share Posted October 14, 2002 We've said it before, we'll say it again....All diets work, and no diet works! High protein diets " work " for the short term by creating both a calorie deficit and water loss. Carbohydrate is stored in your body as glycogen which is chemically bound to water. Eliminating this essential nutrient group means the fluid loss appears to you as weight loss on the scale. Low carbohydrate diets also mean you sacrifice fiber, phytochemicals, antioxidants and B vitamins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
