本期节目话题背景
最近，有同学问了这样一道题“Describe something you do to keep fit and healthy”。不知道大家是否有健身的习惯，对于健身人士而言，除了日常的锻炼，日常饮食搭配也十分讲究。我就很注意自己的饮食习惯，一周中，我有五天都是在吃低碳水食物，只有其中两天才会正常饮食。这样的饮食习惯有哪些好处呢？咱们一起来聊一聊吧！
低碳水的饮食习惯除了能够帮助我减肥，还能督促我在家自己做饭。因为大部分餐馆里的食物都是米饭、面条等高碳水的食物，在家做饭不仅能帮助我保持健康饮食习惯，还能节省开销哦~

There are many things a person can do to keep healthy such as doing exercise, going on a diet or quitting alcohol and smoking. The thing I do however, is called a low-carb diet.
Carbs, or carbohydrates are a macronutrient — one of the three primary ways the body takes in energy. Carbs are mostly food like rice noodles, bread, some vegetables, fruit, and milk products. While they are essential to a healthy diet, they can be harmful in excess or eating too much.
I eat a low-carb diet pretty much five days a week and for the other two days, I eat normally because I need the energy from carbs to play basketball.
There are many benefits of eating a low carbs diet. Number one is weight loss. Since carbs can quickly turn into sugar in the body, eating too many will result in a higher level of insulin which is a hormone to tell body to store fat. Therefore, restricting your carb intake will directly lead to quick fat loss within several weeks. Another benefit of this diet is it makes me cook at home more. When we go out to eat, most of the restaurants food are carbs such as rice, noodles, bread, pizza, and burgers. So if I am on a low-carb diet, I eat out or order takeout lot less frequently. In this way, I can save money and also avoid food with high salt and sugar from restaurants.
