The Low Carb vs Gluten Free Showdown

Image
For some people, low carb and gluten free diets are a way of life. These diets are designed to cut down on the amount of sugar and carbohydrates consumed. Diets that are low in carbs can lead to weight loss and may also increase blood pressure. However they can be dangerous. It is important to read labels and ensure you get the best nutrition you can get. In certain situations, people who are gluten-intolerant may feel uncomfortable and have digestive issues. Gluten can cause inflammation and damage to cells. Gluten can also trigger allergic symptoms in those who are sensitive to gluten.

Easy Low Carb Keto Chicken Recipe

Today I present my Chili Lime Chicken recipe. If you’re tired of boring, dried-out chicken breasts, then this recipe is for you. With four simple steps, you’ll be on your way to a delicious meal. Let’s get started. We’ll begin with our marinade by mixing together some chili powder, salt ground black pepper some garlic powder onion powder some Cayenne pepper and a substitute equal to one teaspoon of regular sugar.

I weighed myself this morning and I’ve had to higher carb days over the weekend, and this morning I weighed in at 114 point 2 pounds, so that is 1.4 pounds up from my lowest weigh-in last week and that’s, because I have more carbs. I also did a big quad and calf session in a new gym, which I feel like when you use new equipment, you can kind of trigger new muscles because it’s just it is. It is a different exercise when it’s a slightly different machine, and I definitely feel that spark some things I can feel my calves are burning today and so are my quads. So I feel a bit inflamed around the muscle and that usually also adds up to up on the scales. So I’m, not too worried because I’m sure it’ll drop down tomorrow. Today is arm day cuz. I...
