Indigenous Nutrition Research and the Low-Carbohydrate Diet Movement:Explaining obesity and diabetes in Protein Power [PDF]
Low-carbohydrate diets were particularly popular in English-speaking Western countries in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Based on a critical analysis of the bestselling low-carbohydrate diet book Protein Power (Eades and Eades 1996), this paper examines

Low and very low carbohydrate diets for diabetes remission [PDF]
Dietary interventions that restrict carbohydrate intake for the management of diabetes are of particular interest to researchers, healthcare providers, and patients. Based on evidence of moderate to low certainty from 23 randomized trials (n=1357), evidence synthesis suggests that patients who adhere to low or very low carbohydrate diets for six months
