Study Shows Findings of Low Carb Diets On Heart Health
A study which ran over a period of 20 years, which was done to see if there were any links between coronary heart disease and a low carb diet. The researchers doing the study found there was no association at all, of having a low carbohydrate diet and (CHD) coronary heart disease, but other findings were.
“Their findings did suggest, however, an association between low-carb diets high in vegetable sources of fat and protein and a low risk of CHD.”
“Advocates of low-carbohydrate diets, such as the popular Atkins diet, claim that those diets may help prevent obesity and coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the long-term safety of those diets has been debated, particularly because they encourage the consumption of animal products, which are high in saturated fats and cholesterol and could potentially increase the risk of CHD. Prevailing dietary recommendations have advocated a contrary approach, recommending diets that are low in fat and high in carbohydrates as the best way to manage weight and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.”
Here we have yet another interesting study on the shall I or shouldn’t I eat a low carbohydrate diet.
