Very Low Carb Eating Plan

January 17, 2022

On a very low carb eating plan, you'll eat 20 to 50 grams total carbohydrate per day.  This is, as named, very low carb compared to the average eating plan.  Other key features of this plan are:

• Moderate in protein and high in fat compared to average eating plans
• Hydration is very important and some will need electrolyte drinks
• Similar to "Atkins" and ketogenic eating plans

Being more of an extreme eating plan, it is important to be aware of your current health and work with a healthcare provider on this plan.  Work with a dietitian/diabetes educator on a very low carb eating plan.
