hey guys I’m back for another video and

unfortunately I’m I’m really sorry to

tell you this but low-carb diets that

are now linked to atrial fibrillation I

know this is this is really this is

really scary because we’re gonna have to

all go back to our high carbohydrate

diets you know based on this study yeah

I don’t even know why I need to do this

video because this is ridiculous they

did a study and they found a link

between low carb and atrial fibrillation

which is a problem of the heart couple

problems with the study okay first of

all is it’ll questionnaire is an

observational study which is the least

credible of all studies why because

there’s an unlimited number of variables

that could cause this they showed that

the low-carb group increased risk for

atrial fib by 16% if we compared to the

high carb group if we compared the

low-carb to the moderate carb group it

was an increase in risk from two atrial

fib by eighteen percent that’s pretty

scary

Wow increased by 16% or 18% and the

researcher who led the study stated

while the research shows an association

okay it can’t prove cause an effect

alright guys so what is the big problem

with this study right here how they

defined low carbohydrates their

definition is forty four point eight

percent of the total calories being

carbohydrates guys that is not low-carb

when you do keto you’re only doing five

percent of the total calories being

carbohydrates they’re doing it you know

mere forty five percent that is a high

carbohydrate diet so really the so

called low carbohydrate study didn’t

even evaluate low carbohydrates so

basically what they do is they take a

group of people who are consuming a high

amount of carbohydrates and they split

up into three groups and then they’re

evaluating the relationship between high

carb to high carb high carb behind car

that’s what they’re doing okay and it’s

very interesting because every week you

see this new study that comes out that’s

scaring people okay well this is

completely false study because they’re

putting doubt in people’s mind when

they’re not even evaluating low carbs

it’s actually kind of ridiculous I mean

the next thing you know they’ll probably

come out with something like I don’t

know

cheeto crotch where your private parts

now have bad odor when you do keto or

something like that that would be

hilarious

so you know my viewpoint on this topic I

want to know your viewpoint what do you
