This is far more interesting...

  So, the "low Carb group" (Q1):
    had higher % of smokers,
    had higher % of diabetics,
    exercised less,
    had higher % of men.
I don't trust the study results at all.

It's possible to control for these factors by adjusting your expected outcomes accordingly. Not saying they did since I haven't bothered to read the study though.
