Knowing how the body uses each nutrient and meeting the goals below will help you build meals that are healthy and satisfying.  \n Carbs  \nCarbs are the sugars and starches that your body breaks down into glucose to use for energy. It’s important for people with diabetes to closely monitor carb intake. Nutritious carbs like  \nwhole grains, legumes, and starchy veggies are higher in fiber. That causes a slower rise to your blood sugar level. Too many of the less nutritious kinds, like added sugars, can cause weight gain and increase your risk of diabetes and heart disease.  \nYour goal: When choosing carbs, opt for smaller portions ofthe more nutritious carb foods  . Avoid added sugars  .  \n Non-starchy veggies  \nNon-starchy veggies are low in carbs and calories and a great source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals.  \nYour goal: For most low-carb plans, you can fill half of your plate with a variety of nonstarchy veggies at each meal  . It’s generally not necessary to limit portion sizes like you do with other carb-containing foods—eat as much as you desire  .  \n Protein  \nProtein helps build and keep muscle. It also helps you feel full. Protein has very little impact on your blood sugar.  \nYour goal: Include protein when eating carbs  . This slows the rise of blood sugar following a meal or snack  . Opt for lean or plant-based protein sources  .  \n Fats  \nFats help your brain and nervous system work, and add great flavor and texture to food. When eaten alone, fats will not raise your blood sugar.  \nYour goal: Choose foods that contain healthy fats (polyunsaturated and monounsaturated)  . Limit saturated fats and avoid trans fats  . Saturated and trans fats can raise your bad (LDL) cholesterol levels  . Trans fats also lower your good (HDL) cholesterol levels  . Replacing saturated and trans fats with unsaturated fats can reduce your risk for heart disease  .  \n3  \nGetting to know the low-carb plans  \nWhen a person says they are eating “low-carb,” they could mean a number of things. Often, low-carb dieters focus on one of the most popular plans: the standard low-carb diet, the paleo diet, or the keto diet. Here’s what you need to know about the top three:  \nStandard low-carb diet:  \nThis plan limits foods containing carbs like grains, starchy veggies, and fruit. It is focused on foods that are higher in protein and f","cbCainP1pjpWcoV7","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainP1pjpWcoV7","pdf",2915197,16,"English","# Understanding the basics\n## Food and nutrients: carbs, protein, fats\n## Goals for choosing carbs, veggies, protein, and fats\n# Getting to know the low-carb plans\n## Standard low-carb diet\n## Paleo diet\n## Keto diet\n# Putting low-carb plans on the plate\n## Understanding food labels\n## Smarter low-carb snacks\n## 1-Day standard low-carb meal plan\n## 1-Day Paleo meal plan\n## 1-Day Keto meal plan","[{\"question\":\"What are the three basic nutrients, and how do they relate to low-carb eating?\",\"answer\":\"Low-carb plans focus on carbohydrates, protein, and fats.
