Is lchf for Non diabetics also?

[Zapp]

Hi I have been trying to lose weight and have been unsuccessful in my attempts. My doc suggested lchf diet, if I could. But after going through articles I was wondering if this diet is ok for non diabetes. am a vegetarian no eggs, and main aim is to shed around 10 -15 kgs of extra weight

Yes it is. But LCHF alone may not work. You must stay physically active.

Yes LCHF diet is, in fact, good for weight loss as it reduces the level of insulin in the body. High insulin is required for fat storage. Low insulin levels help the fat to come out of the cells to be used as a source of energy. David Ludwig in his book Always Hungry has explained beautifully the role of insulin in obesity.
