Whilst I'm sure that is true, it certainly won't be true for the entire human population.

I strongly suspect that my excellent reaction to low carb diets is because I haven't evolved the ability to consume them as well as other humans. Clues include oral allergy to birch pollen and my 'output' when I eat dairy and grains is less than optimal.

I don't believe low carb works for everyone. It doesn't work for my wife. But it is a useful tool, that I'm very glad I found.

My post refers to the paleo diet, which is not a low carb diet. Their principles are completely different.
