Energy Macro Percent Usage

Diet	Carbs	Fats	Protein
Purina Rodent Chow	58%	13.5%	28.5%
High Fat	26.7%	35.8%	14.9%

Charts show blood glucose, body weight, and insulin levels where all worse for mice on the "high carb high fat" diet.

One Constant Macro	*	All macros change by more than 10%.
Constant Nutrients + Fiber	*	All three macros changed significantly. They incorrectly called the diet "High Carb High Fat". The "Standard Diet's" carbs where "Complex Carbohydrates" and higher fiber, while the "High Carb High Fat" carbs where "simple carbohydates" and low fiber.
Number of animals per diet	*****	Although multiple mice breeds were used, there were 18 - 20 mice per diet.
Length of Study	**	24 weeks
Funding Bias	*****	Grants from various health based organizations. Food industry not involved.
Total	2.8	Poor Quality Study
