An international study of more than 135,000 people from 18 countries has found that people with high-carb diets are more likely to have poor health than people with high-fat diets.
But before you start reaching for the bacon, a New Zealand expert says the results mean little for the average Kiwi.
The study, presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress and published in The Lancet, suggests that a high-carbohydrate intake is associated with a higher risk of total mortality compared with a low-carb diet. Meanwhile, a high-fat intake was associated with a lower risk of death compared with low-fat diets.
The researchers suggested a healthy diet would have 50-55 per cent carbs and about 35 per cent fats.
