On a recent BBC Horizon, two identical twins went for a month on two separate diets. One of the twins ate a high carb low fat diet, the other did the reverse.
By the end of the experiment the one with the worse metabolical and biological outcomes was the twin on the high fat low carb diet. In fact the doctors told him to stop as he was becoming pre-diabetic.

- JoeAltmaier 13y agoSounds like it was bad, for those two. Hard to draw any further conclusions from that.
- yeureka 13y agoIt was definitely bad for both of them, however the twin on the high fat low carb diet fared much worse even though he was consuming less calories than the carb binging twin.
- eddiedunn 13y agoThe doctors were uneducated, he was not at all becoming pre-diabetic.
