low-carb

Description

Low-carb describes a dietary ideology so fervent it believes carbohydrates to be the opiate of the masses. It zealously exiles bread, rice, and even gluten to wage a self-proclaimed war of digestion for the sake of freedom. Its practitioners engage in a tug-of-war between hunger and nutrition with the passion of bodybuilders defying death. Yet the specter of carbs lurks in the midnight fridge, luring the rational mind toward sweet moral decay. In the end, one’s willpower often ends up betrayed by a humble leafy green.
