Didn't mean to imply I had the facts (studies) to back this up. This
is my personal observation as well as what I hear from various e-mail
lists/net/etc. I have seen quite a few people start on a low-carb
diet and their blood profiles improved (as well as the fat dropped,
and all the other things I have read and heard about happening
when one starts low-carbing). If any of them went back to carbs
the weight gain, etc. returned. This statement is simply my
reflection on the fact that I usually see bad cholesterol numbers
in the same people who have the classic symptoms of eating too
many carbs and being affected by them.
