I'll confess that trying to read through this study game me a headache but one thing was immediately apparent to me ... how does this study apply to you ?

It's a study of fat in the diet. Carbs are not mentionned at all.

Typically a low carb diet will result in drastically lowered triglycerides and an improvement in your ratio of HDL to LDL.

Just browse through the various forums and you will see testimonial after testimonial about improved blood work.

And if you are truely worried, there is a simple solution. Just get your blood checked before starting low-carb and then again after a few months on the diet. That should be all the proof you need
