Survey Questions
Hi. In this video, we will look at 2 different meal structures. In previous videos, we have explored the foundational concepts of proper feeding. We will now look at 2 ways to implement this information into a structured approach.
Here are 2 different feeding structures:
-
Low carb or Keto
-
Low carb diets such as the paleo diet emphasize healthy animal meats, healthy fats, plenty of green vegetables, but very low carbohydrates. In keto, the only difference is that the carbohydrates are much lower. In keto, the only source of carbs becomes green vegetables. A sample meal would include a palm sized portion of protein, about 4 tablespoons of oil or a cup of nuts and an abundance of green vegetables. Basically, in a typical day, you would just make an effort to avoid carbohydrates. These options may be more suitable for those who have type 2 diabetes or suffer from a chronic lack of energy.

Low Glycemic diet
-
In low glycemic diets, you look to only consume carbohydrates that are slower to digest. In order to determine the speed of digestion of carbohydrates, you can refer to a glycemic index (which is easily found through Google). The glycemic index indicates the speed of digestion of different foods on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the number, the faster the digestion. It is best to aim to consume carbohydrates with a glycemic index below 50.
