    Unfortunately, altogether too much misinformation exists regarding them.Folks who are pro-low-carbohydrate diets tend to present them as the quick and easy solution to everything including obesity. Easy weight loss without hunger or calorie counting is promised but never seems to pan out as well as we might hope.At the other extreme are the anti-low-carbohydrate folks who tend to present low-carbohydrate diets as nothing short of a nutritional disaster being perpetrated by a bunch of con men.The truth, of course lies somewhere in the middle.

Details on how to optimize low-carbohydrate diets for different goals (such as fat loss, bodybuilding and endurance performance) are discussed along with three distinct types of low-carbohydrate diets. In addition, the book includes a complete discussion of resistance, aerobic and anaerobic exercise physiology along with specific training programs for different goals and different levels of traineeAt 325 pages and containing over 600 scientific references, this will be your complete reference for ketogenic diets.Please note: this book does not include information on the ketogenic diet for adolescent epilepsy (the topic is discussed briefly).
