...medical feild to answer this ? about low carb diets and heart failure? im really overweight, and i just recently (4 days ago) started a low carb diet, i have already lost atleast 5 pounds but i am only consuming less than 10 grams of net carbs a day! all im eating is protein, chiken, steak and eggs and cheese. i heard that because your body runs on carbs your heart can stop and you can go into cardiac arrest if u do this? is this true, will my heart stop because im so overweight and i stopped consuming carbs? any info/advice is welcome! thankswill going on this type of diet and fluctuating between eating regularly like 200 grams of carbs a day to 10 grams, can that in any way cause someone to become diabetic
