Low Carb Diva

July 25, 2011

Normally I don't post twice in one day but I can't help it today. If you are pregnant please do not follow the doctors orders of a low fat diet.


Seriously babies need fat. It helps their brains develop! They also need cholesterol which you can get from the devil of all foods saturated fat (gasp..the horror of even suggesting it).

If your doctor tells you to eat lots of fruit, veggies, lean meats and low-fat cheeses ask them how is the baby's brain supposed to develop on apples, bananas and romaine lettuce. When you get a stock answer tell them they are a moron and find another doctor!

I am starting to wonder if autism can also be linked to this supposedly healthy diet they want women to go on. Not to mention all the chemicals in the processed food and diet sodas women consume during pregnancy.

I just wish people would stop demonizing fat. Tune in later this week for my rant on Paula Dean.
