Yep, my kids are on a modified low carb diet. My whole family is on this eating plan because I believe that it is so much more healthy than the flawed govt guidelines and food pyramid(of course eating 11 servings of grains a day will make you fat!) I have an 11 year old son who is stick thin and a 10 year old daughter who is overweight. I have checked with her doc and have the go ahead to try low carb with her.
This is an interesting article from the National University of Health Sciences on the subject…
