Congratulations! You’ve taken your first steps to a low carb lifestyle.
The Low Carb Programme is a free initiative developed by GPs at the Freshwell Health Centre. It has helped many people lose weight and improve their health through adopting a real food low carb lifestyle. Initial results show an average of 8% weight loss at 12 week follow up, with some participants going on to achieve diabetes remission.

- 18 years or older,
