Reduce Your Appetite

The worst negative effect of dieting is usually hunger. It is one of the key causes of the unhappy feelings and finally giving up that many people experience. But eating low-carb naturally makes you feel less hungry. Furthermore, studies consistently show that cutting off carbohydrates and increasing protein and fat results in much lower calorie intake.

People tend to substitute low-protein foods (grains, sugars) for higher-protein foods like meat, fish, and eggs. Numerous studies demonstrate how protein can enhance muscle mass, which is metabolically active and burns calories constantly, while also reducing appetite and boosting metabolism. Many nutritionists think that the key factor in the success of low-carb diets is the high protein content of those diets.
