Anything overly sweet, especially where sugar has been added, or starchy items such as rice, flour and bread are sure to be high in carbs. In addition, dried fruit and veg will tend to be higher in carbs as water has been removed, meaning the percentage of carbohydrates increases.<\/p>\n Low Carb Vegan Foods: Conclusions<\/h2>\nAs mentioned, people might choose to reduce the carbs in their diet for a number of reasons, whether health and wellbeing related, or because they want to slim down. How effective reducing carb intake is in relation to weight loss is open to question, but there is little doubt that carbs provide a fair amount of energy, and if you consume more energy than you use up, your body will store the excess energy, mostly as fat.<\/p>\n For people with diabetes, and potentially other health problems, such as obesity, attempting to follow a low carbohydrate diet can be advisable (though seek medical advice before embarking on such a course of action).<\/p>\n If you are a vegan who is seeking to reduce carbs in your diet, the good news is that many commonly consumed vegan foods are naturally low in carbs. Attempting to reduce your intake of sugary foods and white, starchy foods appears to be the healthiest option, whilst increasing the intake of dietary fibre (also a carbohydrate), is likely to have other health benefits.<\/p>\n It is fair to say that some carbs are less good than others, but as with most things relating to nutrition, it is all about striking a balance that is right for your circumstances. Eating a vegan diet that contains plenty of veg, especially of the green and leafy variety, plus nuts, seeds, legumes, some fruit, and healthy sources of vegan protein<\/a> is likely to stand you in good stead\u2026 even if you do have the occasional bar of vegan-friendly chocolate<\/a> or portion of vegan ice cream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2287,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.veganfriendly.org.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/food\/2286"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.veganfriendly.org.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/food"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.veganfriendly.org.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/food"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.veganfriendly.org.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.veganfriendly.org.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} |
