Interesting conclusion:
> A low-carbohydrate diet based on animal sources was associated with higher all-cause mortality in both men and women, whereas a vegetable-based low-carbohydrate diet was associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality rates.
I'm not familiar enough with reading scientific whitepapers to judge if it's good science or not though.
As someone that isn't vegan, and thinks that low-carb diets are pretty good, I don't really want to believe this result. :)
- TedDoesntTalk 5y agoNote that vegans don’t necessarily eat low-carb diets. Not all vegetable sources are low-carb.
