Why you might follow a low-carb diet

You might choose to follow a low-carb diet because you:

• Want a diet that limits carbs to help you lose weight.
• Want to change your eating habits.
• Want to better manage your blood sugar.
• Want to lower your risk of metabolic syndrome, heart disease or type 2 diabetes.

Check with your healthcare professional before starting any weight-loss diet, especially if you have any health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease or kidney disease.
