I wish they would do these tests on true low-carb diets. If you look at all the studies that say fat is bad, they are on diets that include high carbs as well. Fat is not stored in the body without excess insulin, you get excess insulin with high carbs (over simplification, I know).

On top of that, mice and rats are not carnivores. Their systems are not made to deal with more protein. They need carbs more than humans. So you can't test them on a true low-carb diet, which also makes the comaprison with low-carb bogus because you'll kill the rodents on a diet on which we thrive.
