With chronic diseases, one of the most deceptive “sleights of hand” with numbers is the use of relative risk to report the size of an effect found in a study.

This week, we summarize the top five news articles and studies in the low-carb realm, plus the wall of shame.

The Telegraph: Bringing home the bacon: what happened on my first low-carb ultra marathon Alfie had met with Professor Tim Noakes a few weeks prior to the race, and learned about running on an alternative fuel: fat. Most athletes (and let’s be frank, most people in general) believe that runners need to load up on carbs for fuel. Professor Noakes told Alfie that there is no benefit in eating carbohydrates; instead, he should focus on fat as his fuel source.
