Low-Carb Diet Decreases Inflammation

Inflammation promotes blood vessel disease, heart attack and stroke. A study found that a low-carbohydrate diet reduced markers of inflammation and blood fats better than a low-fat diet in people with the Metabolic Syndrome (MS). MS is a group of symptoms linked to poor metabolic health that include insulin resistance, abdominal fat deposits, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, low HDL (the good cholesterol), inflammation, type 2 diabetes and blood-clotting abnormalities. Low carb diets reduced inflammation and improved blood-clotting regulation better than low-fat diets in people with the Metabolic Syndrome. (Lipids, 2008)
