Check out this article. It may be a bit out there but it makes some
interesting and very valid points.

"For the past 20 years, doctors, politicians, nutritionists, marketing
vice presidents, and anyone else who could manage to get a platform
have been telling us that we should eat lots of carbohydrates. "Cut
down on fats, load up on carbohydrates." That was the message. If you
didn't consume massive quantities of carbohydrates, you were doomed to
ill health, or worse. The problem is, they were wrong. And not only
were they wrong, their advice has caused and is causing millions of
Americans to suffer. Obesity levels, incidences of depression and
anxiety, and — shudder — cholesterol levels are all up dramatically
over the past 20 years, and it's not a stretch to point to excessive
carbohydrate consumption as the single most important contributor to
all these conditions."
