Discuss any one reason why the low-carb diet in this case, could have reduced blood cholesterol in the people. Would this be typical for most low carb diets, why or why not?

As a result, the intake of saturated fats and cholesterols in this diet are likely lower than in other "low-carb" diets. There are studies that suggest that high levels of saturated fat intakes, coupled with high levels of refined carbohydrate intakes, may increase the levels of LDL in the blood.
