Low-Carb Diets: 3 Reasons Why They Don’t Work
I know you’re curious, but first, you should know that the word “diet” is misleading. A “diet” isn’t something you do to lose weight; a diet describes how you eat. Regardless of what your diet is called, it’s important to know that the foundation behind losing weight (fat) is to consume less calories than you take in. There are many urban legends behind the low-carb diet, and we’ve got some science to explain why they’re true or false.
Picking the right low cost medical insurance plan can be difficult. Most people who need a low-cost plan have strict financial obligations that prevent them from spending too much on their health care. Unfortunately, the same budget limits also mean that they may get stuck with plans that don't provide adequate coverage and be forced to pay high deductibles later.
Many people are thrown off by the prospect of getting a major medical insurance quote because they don't quite understand the concept. These plans are somewhat different from our fixed-dollar coverage plans, and while both have their advantages, it's well worth learning about major health insurance policies. Here are a few of the top questions people ask us on the subject:
Whether you realize it or not, there are many kinds of health insurance plans available to you. Some of these are designed to cover routine visits to the doctor and clinic. Others are useful for shouldering ongoing prescription medication costs.
Many people do not realize that the cost of their health insurance coverage is directly related to their health. Someone who is 20 years old, has no family history of cancer, doesn't smoke and is a healthy body weight will pay far less for medical coverage than someone who is 60, smokes regularly and is obese. If you are unsure of what the cost of insurance health care might be for you personally, then discover how the cost of insurance can change depending on various factors related to health and aging.
Confusion Persists as October 1 Approaches

The cost of preventive care, hospital stays, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures and other medical services can be significant. You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to find the best health insurance plan that money can buy. Although this sounds like a tall order, it can be surprisingly simple and even fun.
You're no doubt already aware that health insurance is an essential part of your personal safety net. By carrying an affordable and robust health insurance policy at all times, you ensure that you won't deplete your family's financial reserves by seeking medical care for an illness or injury.
Prominent health insurer Aetna, along with other industry giants UnitedHealth and Cigna, announced in late May 2013 that they would be pulling out of California’s health insurance marketplace—one of many opening in states across the nation on October 1, 2013.
