                                      The case against low carb diets

                                      Most of the bad side-effects stated, like tiredness, diarrhea, constipation, or headaches are only temporary, but critics contend that low carb diets are not without serious long term side effects. 
                                      Multiple studies over the years have proved that eating too much animal fat causes increased risk of cancer, coronary problems and other inflammatory disorders.
