LCHF Low Carb High Fat diet EatPlayLove video 1 of 6
(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 15, 2014 ) Melbourne, Australia -- Low Carb advocates looking for the latest information on LCHF (Low Carb High Fat) eating can attend Low Carb Melbourne scheduled for Saturday 15 November 2014, 9am - 5pm (Doors and trade tables open at 8am). The venue is St Kilda Town Hall, 99a Carlisle St, St Kilda (corner Brighton Rd) in Melbourne, Australia.
Low Carb Downunder is sponsoring this year's event, which will cover key issues such as:
Jimmy Moore - What is going on in the low carb world?
Vicky Kuriel, Acacia Health - Case reports from a LCHF dietician
Dr Zeeshan Arain - Why some people don't lose weight on LCHF
When asked about the reasons behind creating this event, the host of the event, Low Carb Downunder said:
"The event will discuss such questions as - Is a well formulated low carbohydrate higher fat (LCHF) diet the most effective diet for well-being, weight optimisation and long term health?".
One of the keynote speakers is Vicky Kuriel from EatPlayLove.com.au . She is the only dietitian in Melbourne (and possibly one of the only dietitians in Australia) who sees patients in private practice for LCHF nutrition.
Kuriel will begin with speaking about her personal experiences with LCHF and then how this lead her to change the way she practices as a dietitian. From being frustrated and disillusioned with the profession, because she was not assisting her patients achieve the results they were after, she is now re-invigorated and excited about how nutrition, or more specifically LCHF, can really change someone's life and move them in the direction of their goals.
Kuriel will then discuss four case studies, all very different
1. Maggie - an expert dieter who has never been able to lose weight and keep it off. The desperation she felt and how her life has changed since adopting LCHF. Now, 20kg lighter, no more joint aches and pains,has begun training for her first 5km fun run, happier. Feels like this is NOT a diet but a lifestyle that she will continue for the rest of her life easily
2. Susan - Shocking gut issues (diagnosed as Irritable bowel syndrome) so bad that this was impacting on her quality of life. Unbelievable turn around in just 3 weeks on the LCHF diet she is 90% better. Other benefits experienced - appetite control; discovered how unbelievably delicious food with fat is!
3. Hilary - an incredible example of how the right attitude and making a commitment to one's health can really pay dividends. An example of a complete lifestyle change - not only nutrition but exercise, sleep, relationship, support network, behaviour changes, mindset changes. An unbelievable transformation.
4. Joseph - an endurance athlete who is no longer reliant on carbohydrate to fuel his performance. The journey to becoming fat adapted and discovering that there is an alternative to highly processed high carbohydrate supplements that athletes generally rely on.
Kuriel has a six-video series about LCHF available at her web site EatPlayLove.com.au, free when joining her mailing list.
Low Carb Downunder, organizer of the new Low Carb Melbourne, announced their Nutrition event will be held in St Kilda Town Hall in Melbourne on Saturday 15 November 2014.
One of the keynote speakers will be Vicky Kuriel from Acacia Health.
