I have found that when my carbs go too low, as on Atkins Induction or zero carb, I start to feel edgy, and it doesn't go away. I assume this is caused by the cortisol I'm putting out, to keep gluconeogenesis going. When I was younger I didn't experience this, but now, at 57, I do. It's probably the result of a sluggish liver, compromised by fructose, alcohol, and PUFA. The OD has enough carb to keep me from getting edgy. For the sake of my liver, I favor starches (obviously in small quantities) over anything with fructose.
