It doesn't mean that the diet isn't right for you. It just means that most methods of dieting appear to be similar in terms of efficacy long-term

And since virtually ALL diets have the same long-term adherence - low - extolling one above all the others simply isn't very well-supported evidentially

I suggest you look at actual low carb diets (<130gm/day) vs others and then you will find a difference https://phcuk.org/rcts/

That particular download seems to almost perfectly prove my point. Innumerable tiny (n<30!) studies that show big benefits but not a single large long-term result that ws statistically significant This is why I prefer systematic reviews, such as the one I cited

You are mistaken, the CSIRO study of Low Carb in T2D shows results out to 2 years

1. The CSIRO study was fairly small at 2 years (n=61) 2. They found no difference in the majority of variables (weight, HbA1c, systolic/diastolic blood pressure, HDL, TC, body fat, fasting glucose) which in many ways provides further evidence for my argument

I think your bias is showing, the authors though the results were significant, with better lipid effects and more medication reduction. The HDL was maintained or increased and TG were lower.pic.twitter.com/mmGa8g5dbN

Everyone thinks their own work is significant. That is hardly surprising

OMG - Published in peer review journal with clinically and statistically significant results and you, with no clinical or dietetic qualifications feel confident to dismiss it. Such confidence in own opinion, the patients have a significant disease that should be taken seriously

I mean, not what I said nor what I implied. You are taking my words out of context for the millionth time

Apologies. I didn't mean out of context. I meant misrepresenting my opinions.
