low-carb high-fat (lchf) diets
Low-carb high-fat (LCHF) diets are dietary approaches that primarily focus on reducing carbohydrate intake while increasing the consumption of fats. These diets aim to limit the intake of foods that are high in carbohydrates, such as bread, pasta, and sugary foods, and emphasize the consumption of fats from sources like meat, fish, eggs, nuts, and healthy oils. The primary goal of LCHF diets is to shift the body's metabolism from relying on glucose for energy to burning stored fat, which advocates argue can lead to weight loss and improved overall health.
