Here is a free review in 2008 (note the authors):

Dietary carbohydrate restriction in type 2 diabetes mellitus and metabolic
syndrome: time for a critical appraisal.

ABSTRACT: Current nutritional approaches to metabolic syndrome and type 2
diabetes generally rely on reductions in dietary fat. The success of such
approaches has been limited and therapy more generally relies on
pharmacology. The argument is made that a re-evaluation of the role of
carbohydrate restriction, the historical and intuitive approach to the
problem, may provide an alternative and possibly superior dietary strategy.
The rationale is that carbohydrate restriction improves glycemic control and
reduces insulin fluctuations which are primary targets. Experiments are
summarized showing that carbohydrate-restricted diets are at least as
effective for weight loss as low-fat diets and that substitution of fat for
carbohydrate is generally beneficial for risk of cardiovascular disease.
These beneficial effects of carbohydrate restriction do not require weight
loss. Finally, the point is reiterated that carbohydrate restriction
improves all of the features of metabolic syndrome.

Wow!!
"The initial mean HbA1c in 2003 in the low-carbohydrate group was 8.0
ą 1.5 % (controls: 7.9
ą 1.5 %). At the end of the 6 months study period it was 6.6 ą 1.0 %
(controls: 7.3 ą 1.8 %),
and after 12 months it was 7.0 ą 1.3 %. It has since remained stable
and is 6.8 ą 1.3 % after
44 months.
<snip>
In the low-carbohydrate group bodyweight and HbA1c is still
significantly lower than before
start. The bodyweight of 7 patients (43 %) is still 10 % below the
initial weight, the original
goal of the study. The success rate almost 4 years later is thus 43 %
as compared to zero in
the control group. "

Nah - he thinks the internet is full of misinformation, far too
dangerous to go there; but he's clearly read paper stuff I've dropped
on his desk before.

I bet the PDF version doesn't look like it came from the internet. :-)

Change is inevitable.
Liberals need to learn that "inevitable" is not a synonym for "good."
Conservatives should learn that "inevitable" is not a synonym for "bad."
