Florida-based heart surgeon Dr. Philip Ovadia says that a low-carb diet is the best way to avoid heart disease, not fearing meat.

You don't need to cut down on carbs as it too has nutritional value. Incorporate carbs with these meals for a balanced diet.

High intake of foods like refined carbohydrates, processed meats, and alcohol can lead to inflammation. Chronic inflammation increases your risk of metabolic disorders and cardiovascular disease.
