I've done low carb diets in the past, but I'm not convinced you that you lose more fat (cos you want to keep your muscle normally) perse.
BUT your blood sugar can be more stable on them, I definitely got that effect in the past where my blood sugar was wildly unstable due to eating any carbs (this has now settled).
They seem to work better for people that are already on the way to diabetes and that need to lose fat, and I found my skin improved on them too.
But I think that is due to cutting milk (I only eat skyr/fage now and have tiny bits of milk) and bread/pasta (which I should not eat too often)
