Here's some good low-carb related news. The Swedish Dietary Science Foundation aims to do high-quality research on how to treat health problems using positive dietary changes. They're very positive to the potential of low-carb diets and they've now completed funding for two studies involving low carb.
The first study will investigate the potential of a low-carb diet to improve IBS, and has already started. The second study will be the largest study ever to attempt to stabilize blood glucose in people with type 1 diabetes using a dietary change (i.e. fewer carbs).
2017 has been a great year for the foundation, as explained in the post below:
