People's perceptions of low carb food A great many people have now taken to trying at least one of the newest diets out there that maintain that one should replace carbohydrates with protein. And the food manufacturing industry has hopped along for the ride, marketing many foods as low carb food. But fewer carbs does not mean fewer calories and often times the difference in the amount of carbs between the regular food that you used to eat and those same things now labeled low carb food is very slight indeed. There is no standard for low carb food Just because the label claims that what's inside is a low carb food does not necessarily mean that it is any lower in carbs than the regular version of the same food. It could be that the same product is sitting in the two differently labeled foods. How can that be, you might be asking. Well the fact is that there is simply no standard that defines what a low carb food really is, even if it has the Atkins label on it. The FDA has no actual definition of low carb food and none of the labels that you see at the grocery store have ever been approved by the FDA. So don't be fooled by anything "official." Essentially, any food can be labeled a low carb food. And the other damaging fact still remains and that is that the key to losing excess weight is still to cut calories. When you replace the carbs for protein with entirely low carb food, yes, the carbs are gone. Yet you still end up with the same amount of calories as protein has as many calories as carbs do, and with the added fat that many of the replacements have you are adding even more calories. Fat has twice as many calories as carbs. The labels will often speak of "net impact carbs" which is the total amount of carbs in the product minus those from finer, but the carbs from fiber are still regular carbs.
