Greek religion, having no creed, did not proselytize. In the heyday of the polis, the Greek religion was spread by the founding of new poleis, whose colonists took with them part of the sacred fire from the hearth of the mother city and the cults of the cityâs gods.
According to the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, carbohydrates should make up 45 to 65 percent of a person's total daily calorie intake. Any amount less than this could be considered low carb. For someone consuming 2,000 calories a day, this is about 225 to 325 grams of carbohydrates per day. Most low-carb diets limit carbohydrate intake to between 50 to 150 grams per day, depending on the diet.
Comparing to the Recommendation. Normally you should be getting 45 to 65 percent of your calories from carbohydrates, states the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010. So if you stick to a 2,000-calorie per day diet, youâll need 900 to 1,300 calories from carbs, or 225 to 325 grams daily. Following a low-carb diet that only allows you to have 50 grams per day, for example, means that youâll be getting less than 25 percent of the recommended amount.
