Get Carbs, Cut Salt and Fat
I'm cooking up just the right low fat diet recipe for you! Make sure your low fat food routine is rich in one food source: Carbohydrates. At least seven prominent medical associations have come to the same conclusion. Under new guidelines a healthy diet should have less than ten-percent saturated fat; and no more than 30-percent total fat. More than 55-percent of total calories should come from carbohydrates.
Also, no more than 300 milligrams of cholesterol should be consumed each day. Salt intake should be limited to less than one-teaspoon, or 2000 milligrams. I know this may sound a little bland, so to add a little variety, include at least five servings of fruits and vegetables daily. Bon appetite!
