Low-carbohydrate diets were associated with a 31% greater risk of death according to an analysis of 17 studies.
Conclusion
“Low-carbohydrate diets were associated with a significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality and they were not significantly associated with a risk of [cardiovascular disease] mortality and incidence,” the authors of the paper concluded.
