How the Low-Carb Market Has Changed
There was a time in the low carb craze when manufacturers were making a plethera of food items and your local grocery store was jumping in to profit on the enthusiasm of the market. Low Carb Specialty stores were cropping up in many neighbrohoods and taking in hefty profits.
However... those days have changed. What was a booming market, quickly began to fall after the death of Robert C. Atkins, MD, who was thought by most to be the founder of the low carb lifestyle.
Today, many pre-made low carb foods can still be found on grocery store shelves (such as marinades, salad dressings, and pasta sauces,) but the new craze seems to be "whole grain." Some of the products pushed as being lower in carbs are not... and you should always watch labels for "high fructose corn syrup" and other high-carb ingredients.
When in doubt, purchase low carb foods through a specialized retailer such as The Low Carb Connoisseur, or Netrition. Then you can be assured they are right for you - as these retailers are conscious of ingredients and "true" carb levels.
Happy Shopping!
