Blood Metabolomic and Proteomic Signatures of Total, Healthy, and Unhealthy Low-Carbohydrate Diets in the UK Biobank

Key Points

• The aim is to investigate the associations of metabolomic and proteomic profiles with adherence to low-carbohydrate diets.
• Analyzed plasma samples from UK adults
• Measured metabolomic and proteomic profiles
• Classified diets into total, healthy, and unhealthy low-carbohydrate diets
• Identified distinct plasma profiles for each diet type
• Link between low-carbohydrate diets and cardiovascular disease risk was noted
