Moreover, it has been proposed that the kidneys can come under too much strain and that the related change in blood acidity levels can cause the loss of bone, but some of the studies trying to test the theory have struggled to find real evidence of damage to the kidneys or bone damage.
Reducing carbs might mean missing out on essential nutrients from healthy foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, specifically those provied by vegetables, grains and fruits.
