About this ebook
Did you know that humans are naturally starch eaters? While we have been fed with information on diet fads such as low-carb and high-protein, these are actually not diets optimized for humans. And yes, surprisingly, they are characteristic of the diet of cats, which may be amusing for some. It’s not exactly a bad diet, but it may not be beneficial for everyone.
Recently, we have seen a barrage of dieting plans consisting mainly of protein-rich food such as meat and fish and devoid of carbohydrates especially those that are rich in starch.
What if all of these popular diet plans are harmful? What if a starch-based diet is a healthier way of losing weight while at the same time warding off common health problems that include obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and a host of other illnesses that stem from the kind of food we eat?
Good nutrition is after all a major component of healthy lifestyle living. Time and again, poor diet and nutrition have been identified by experts as one of the major causes of diseases which in turn could result in a life not worth all that is supposed to be enjoyed and eventually premature death. In this day and age of new and emerging diseases, it has become imperative, more than ever that our food choices should be given prime importance for overall well-being and not just to maintain a healthy weight but also to help prevent diseases.
There has been an increasing trend lately on various forms of diet plans that promise a healthier lifestyle and which at the same time will help you lose weight. In this article, we will help you break the misconception about a starch-based diet being one of the major enemies of healthy eating, and why cultures that mainly have potatoes and rice as the staple parts of their diets have been eating it right after all.

It stands out not only for its nutritional benefits but also for its ease of adoption in daily life. The foundation of this diet rests on foods that have sustained civilizations for millennia, bringing a sense of tradition and time-tested wisdom to our modern plates.
