I'm providing more info, I knew I would cause a commotion, if you want to eat low carb, by all means eat low carb.

1) The importance of eating a healthy plant-based diet to prevent
type 2 diabetes has been emphasised in a new Singapore study. Greater intakes of vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and lower intake of red meat and sweetened drinks were associated with reduced
type 2 diabetes risk.
Professor Rob van Dam, NUS Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health, and senior author of the publication, said: "Our results are consistent with studies in other populations that a high-quality diet defined by an abundance of minimally processed plant foods such as whole grains, vegetables, fruit, nuts and legumes, but restricted intake of red and processed meat, and sweetened beverages were significantly associated with lower risk of diabetes."
2)The new
research showed that higher amounts of
protein in meals increased the amount of insulin needed by about 50 per cent. The results also showed that the amount of extra insulin needed varied significantly between different individuals.
3)The controversy about statins continues following a study revealing how the cholesterol-lowering drugs are associated with increased blood glucose,
insulin resistance and type 2
diabetes risk.
