Low-carbohydrate
high-fat (LCHF) diets are at least as effective as other dietary
strategies for reducing body weight, with the additional advantage of
increased satiety and spontaneous reduction in energy intake.
LCHF
diets are an effective dietary strategy to improve glycaemic control
and reduce hyperinsulinaemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus and in
otherwise healthy patients with insulin resistance.
LCHF
diets have unique effects on blood lipid concentrations and
cardiovascular risk factors, characterised by decreased blood TG, ApoB
and saturated fat concentrations, reduced small LDL particle numbers and
increased HDL-C concentrations. The effect on LDL-C concentrations is
variable.
