[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2227301, member: 41816"] They won't take the slightest bit of notice of any n=1 results. I suspect that any such contributions will be immediately discarded. All they are interested in is feedback on their analysis of the very carefully selected studies. I haven't read the full doc, just skipped to p74 and onwards. Interesting outcome. Looks like the general conclusion is basically 'we looked really really really hard for something to prove LC is harmful, and we can't find it, but we are still going to mutter cautionary speculation about long term dangers'. Here are the last two paragraphs [I]In general, no adverse events were reported with lower carbohydrate diets, but study duration did not extend beyond 12 months in the majority of primary RCTs. The effect of lower carbohydrate diets over several years in adults with T2D are unknown. Several gaps were identified in the evidence base. No trials provided information about the type of carbohydrate consumed (for example, those with differing free sugar or fibre content, wholegrains compared to refined starch) or considered how this could affect the outcomes of interest. In addition, few trials assessed longer-term effects (beyond 12 months) of lower carbohydrate diets, and none considered hard endpoints such as diabetes complications, CVD events or mortality.[/I] [/QUOTE]
