As Janie points out; it is economic where bribery and monetary gain rules the day for the scientist/researcher and it is beyond a multi-billion dollar business industry to keep you the consumer in absolute darkness[3]?

36:27 Over 70 clinical trials have been done on a low carb diet, but researchers CANNOT get their studies published.
39:15 Researchers in the field of nutrition science stay within the realm of acceptable discourse in their field. This is why the new science about carbohydrate restriction came from people not in the field of nutrition.
