People who are just starting to lose weight and are not particularly knowledgeable in dietary terminology may get confused when deciding on their diet.
If everything is clear with protein, without it the body will have a hard time, then what to do with fats and carbohydrates, especially when something needs to be cut.

Low fat content
This diet is chosen by those who want to lose weight. The diet reduces the number of calories, which helps to lose weight.
