Here is the problem with the report of adverse cardiovascular effects in the
SPECT scans. 3/4 of the participants were not doing the diet correctly. By
adding fats and protein while continuing carbohydrates, the results are to
be expected....

A recent study of 11,000 people found that only one in
four of those claiming to be on a low carb diet were
actually significantly cutting carbs at all.443 Another
survey, commissioned by former Surgeon General C. Everett
Koop's organization Shape Up America!, found that most
people claiming to be on Atkins, or another of the low
carb fad diets, didn't seem to even know where carbs were
found.444 Most didn't know, for example, that tomatoes
were high in carbs. Thankfully, about half of them didn't
know apples had a lot of carbs, and 1 in 6 even thought
steak was a carbohydrate.445 Thankfully most people on
Atkins are actually not on Atkins.
