Many low carb diets restrict or eliminate one or more plant foods for a variety of reason including being the cause of Americas obesity and diabetes epidemic. Most studies show people eating high carb diets tend to maintain a healthy weight and live longer, healthier lives.

Some low carb diets limit daily carbohydrates to 50 grams a day or less. A keto diet may limit carbs to 5 percent of total calories.
Carbohydrates come from plant foods that are high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and 1000’s of plant chemicals (phytochemicals).
To allow low carb dieters to eat more carbs, some diets use net carbs. Net carbs subtracts fiber and sugar alcohols from total carbs. Fiber and sugar alcohols do not increase blood glucose like sugar and starch.
Most natural foods have little or no sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols are used to make highly processed low carb foods like protein and energy bars, cookies, cakes, and candy. Foods most people should limit from any diet.
