Low-carb or low-fat

Over 12 months the low-fat group lost 5.3 kg and the low-carb group 6.0 kg. The 0.7 kg difference was not statistically significant. The trial specifically tested whether genotype or insulin secretion explained the outcome and found no interaction. Pick whichever pattern you can actually keep up.
