Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

This particular low carbohydrate diet does not contain large amounts of meats as compared with more typical low carbohydrate diet plans. As a result, the intake of saturated fats and cholesterols in this diet are likely lower than in other low-carb diets. There are studies that suggest that high levels of saturated fat intakes, coupled with high levels of refined carbohydrate intakes, may increase the levels of LDL in the blood.
