Diet Tip - Low Fat Diets

Low fat diets reduce the bad, LDL, cholesterol while low cabohydrate diets have no effect on the LDL levels. However, low carbohydrate diets raise the good HDL cholesteol and lower triglycerides and improve control of the blood glucose (sugar) level whereas as low fat diets actually lower the HDL level and raise the triglyceride level.
