This is a low-carb food pyramid and its one that I have been using as a guide since I started this lifestyle. It makes it very easy to see what types of food you can eat more or less of.
The great thing with a low-carb lifestyle is that you can eat lots of foods, cooking becomes essential as you have to work with these foods and create great healthy meals.
You have to remember that not all food types are equal,if you take a Avocado which is a super food and has many great benefits in a low-carb lifestyle. If you look at its position on the pyramid its near the top which means only eat a little why? Avocado despite all of its great benefits also has a high fat content so you don't want to be eating to many of them. (I do love them though) So you do need to check out each food and that's where the pyramid is really helpful.
So get your cook books out (see below) and forget the packaged and processed rubbish that we now call food and get cooking.
Remember the pyramid is only a guide to help you out.
