I don't think low-carbers eat a lot of fat, we eat normal food as it exists in nature, and we avoid low-fat processed food.
The reason our health stabalizes this way, is because we're back to eating what our ancestors ate, and what our bodies have adapted to through time.
When we start eating sugar and low-fat processed foods, hydroginated oils, and flour, etc. we basically assault our bodies with foreign objects that we have yet to adapt to, and may never adapt to. The result is syndrome X, and allergic reactions, symptoms that coincide with the increased amounts of sugar, refined and processed foods, and low-fat unnatural food..
