Low Carb Diets

I recognised a certain trend among some North Americans to follow so called low carb diets. They reduce their "carb intake". I have to admit that I had no clue, what it meant. After having read my daily paper, I checked the internet for background information on low carb diets.

My conclusion: I stick to my diet. Not too much of the good stuff, a lot of sports, few alcohol... Imagine a nice steak with a thick sauce without French fries? Terrible idea. Besides, didn't I learn once that carbohydrates are good because they burn quicker than fat. So, what happens to those people who have almost no body fat? Well, this question is obviously no one, which I would have to bother about ;-) but I am curious.
