Low carb diets, such as the keto diet, have increased in popularity in recent years, but many experts wonder if the health effects of a more restricted diet could have negative consequences.
Researchers from the University of Toronto in Canada recently conducted a study to explore how low carb diets can affect bacteria linked to colorectal cancer.
The researchers used mice in their study and studied them on low carb, normal, and Westernized diets and different strains of bacteria.
They focused on whether these diets impact certain bacteria and how that may contribute to colorectal cancer development.
