Low-carb meals

What is a low-carb diet?

A low-carb diet is an eating pattern in which you eat a reduced amount of carbs, meaning fewer carbs than recommended. Low-carb meals contain as little bread, rice and pasta as possible.

Normally, the sugars in carbs give our body energy. With this diet, the idea is that you no longer get your energy from carbs, but from protein and fat. During the diet you eat roughly between 50 and 130 g of carbs per day.

It's also important to know that carbs are split into fast (simple) and slow (complex) carbs. Fast carbs are absorbed quickly by the body, but also broken down quickly. That's why these carbs soon make you feel hungry. Biscuits, sweets and crisps contain a lot of these carbs. Then there are slow carbs, which are absorbed more slowly by the body. So you can imagine that these work in your favour throughout the day. Wholegrain products are a good example of a source that is rich in slow carbs.

How can eating low-carb help you lose weight?

Unfortunately, you can't eat an unlimited amount of low-carb meals to lose weight. In the end, it still comes down to a negative energy balance. If you eat fewer calories than you burn, you lose weight. If you want to eat less to lose weight, you can choose to eat fewer carbs. By skipping carbs, you quickly end up with a negative calorie balance. But this does mean you have to eat more protein and fat! We recommend eating no more than 500 calories below your needs, so you lose as little muscle mass as possible and don't suffer from cravings. According to the Netherlands Nutrition Centre, a low-carb meal that is rich in protein can help you feel full for longer. That naturally makes losing weight a lot easier too! At PRAZ you can order low-carb meals that are rich in protein and always contain a good portion of vegetables for your vitamins!
