Most of the longest living people eat a high (complex) carbohydrate diet. What benefit do you see in lowering carbohydrate intake, unless you're conflating e.g. processed white bread with sweet potatoes?

Being able to control my weight, my appetite, much improved HbA1c, lower LDL/TG levels, increased energy levels, no more food cravings, and fasting as part of my daily life. whereas none of these was possible on my high Complex carbs years, and i'm not talking for white bread but whole grains, beans and legumes.
