Did they screen the participants for kidney damage and cancer before the trial?
How many (percentage) got kidney failure and/or cancer?

Carbohydrates and PUFA cause insulin resistance (and diabetes) down to the mitochondria level. The destruction of cells can result in cancerous cell storm mostly due to weakened immune system. Cancer cells can only survive on glucose. Normal cells survice on glucose and fat. The body makes all the sugar it needs from fat/protein...Obviously! Just like all carnivores!

Do you disagree that carbohydrates and PUFA oils (proven to damage blood vessels - and every cell in your body) cause macular degeneration?

I have been on a low carb diet (Thanks Dr Atkins and Drs Eades) for 30 years. I have been on a near-zero carb diet for the last 1.5 years...I even managed to quit coffee, which I still miss. My eyesite is now just starting to get a little fuzzy and I have been staring into computer monitors all my adult life. No kidney/cardiac failure or cancer yet.
There are some animal food sources that have nutrients critical to good eye health. I hope you have researched that.
