A member asked:

If i'm on a low carb diet, is the carbs from fruits and veggies okay to have?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Veggies yes fruit no: If your are trying to lose body fat , fruit can derail you. Todays fruit are bred to be large, sweet and low in fiber. Stick to berries, and only in summer, when they are in season.
