Isn't this just another low carbohydrate diet?
No, HiPaCC is a high carbohydrate diet with short phases of low carbohydrate intake to promote fat loss and to ensure that any excess carbohydrates are not stored as fat.
What makes HiPaCC different from all these other diets that seem to come and go every year?
First, HiPaCC believes that carbohydrates are essential for energy and thus comprise an essential part of the HiPaCC diet. Second, HiPaCC encourages treat days to ensure that the body does not enter a fat-retaining fasting mode. Third, HiPaCC promotes moderate exercise to encourage fat loss. Fourth, HiPaCC is about cycling and stimulating the metabolism rather than just cutting calories.
Is HiPaCC just another stressful diet I won't stick to?
HiPaCC is affordable, straight-forward, easy-to-follow and is designed to be lifestyle compatible, with treat days to break the mental siege of dieting.
Is it really true that you can lose weight on a diet which contains up to 3,000 kcal per day?
Absolutely, with moderate exercise, a quickened metabolism and a balanced diet, even those who have struggled with diets in the past have been able to lose as much as 20% of their body fat in just 8 weeks on the HiPaCC diet.
Exercise program? I thought that this was supposed to be a diet!
As little as a half hour's fast walking or gentle cycling every day is all you need to stimulate your metabolism and lose fat! You can do this on your way to work or to get your lunchtime sandwich!
Is this another one of those metabolism diets where drugs are taken?
No, HiPaCC is an all natural, balanced and healthy approach to weight loss!
