Emphasize non-starchy vegetables
Vegetables are a great source of fiber and minerals. They also contain phytochemicals, which are plant-based substances, many of which serve as antioxidants and protect you from disease.
However, not all vegetables on a low-carb diet are made equal, limit starchy vegetables like potatoes and corn, which are best consumed in moderation and in small amounts. It's crucial to concentrate on non-starchy vegetables if you're trying to reduce your carb intake. Non-starchy vegetables, such as greens, cauliflower, peppers, mushrooms, and others, are one of the food groups you're likely to stock up (and fill up) on when you first start a low-carb diet. Artichokes, asparagus, broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, and tomatoes are among a long list of non-starchy vegetables recommended by the American Diabetes Association.
