What is often not mentioned about that particular study is that the low carb group was advised to ; choose vegetarian sources of fat and protein and to avoid trans fat.' so it wasn't a meat heavy diet.<a href="http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1204792" target="_blank">http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc1204792</a>  You wouldn't though be the first to adopt a low carb Med diet.Here is a blog written by a US doctor who advocates this type of diet.<a href="http://diabeticmediterraneandiet.com/low-carb-mediterranean-diet/" target="_blank">http://diabeticmediterraneandiet.com/low-carb-mediterranean-diet/</a></blockquote>
