More like low carb and high fat diet (good fats like olive oil, nuts and fatty fish) are associated with lower heart disease plus it reverses type 2 diabetes in some, but they will figure it out, eventually. Yeah, my wife and I are living proof.
A side note: About half the population, depending on their ancestry, does quit well on a higher carb diet,

Are you seriously saying you know better than the scientist who did extensive research based on your anecdotal evidence with n=2?

When the 1 in n=1 is yourself, it's the most important result of all.

Sure, when you make decisions for yourself. Not when you are advising others or giving your truth as the full truth.
