To lose weight and improve health, many people turn to diets. Government statistics, in fact, demonstrate that about 65% of Americans are obese but 38% have turned to dieting.
And according to a recent survey by the National Health Institute, about a third of overweight Americans who are trying to lose weight, are doing so by eating less carbohydrates (carbs) largely because of the increased popularity of fad diets like Atkins Diet and the South Beach Diet.
The terminology "low-carb" wasn't really coined until around 1992 when the USDA announced America's model food pyramid included six to eleven servings daily of grains and starches. However, low-carb dieting dates back more than 100 years before the trendy Atkins diet to 1864 with a pamphlet titled Letter on Corpulence written by William Banting, as close to the first commercial low-carb diet as you could get.
The most famous low-carb high-protein diets in the world today are:
1. Atkins Diet 2. Carbohydrate Addict's Diet 3. Hampton's Diet 4. The Glycemic Index Diet 5. NeanderThin 6. Protein Power 7. Schwarzbein Principle 8. Somersizing 9. South Beach Diet 10. Sugar Busters! 11. The Zone 12. Thin for Good 13. The 7-Day Low-Carb Rescue and Recovery Plan 14. Living Low-Carb
