I've made a new video against low-carb diets

I am quite sure that's not the case. Vegetarian diets are lower in fat and protein, but are higher in carbohydrates.
I have said this in the video, I have said this on this forum, and I will say this again: "If that were true, how it is that around 5% of children put on a ketogenic diet (a low-carbohydrate low-protein diet that is supposedly beneficial to epilepsy) develop kidney stones, compared to virtually none of the children who are not following a ketogenic diet? Are you suggesting those 5% of children were not following the ketogenic diet properly, but were eating some crazy-high-protein diet? Do you have any evidence of that?".
The link between sugar and type-2-diabetes is complicated. Fructose does cause temporary insulin resistance, but there is little evidence that fructose in the amounts it is usually eaten today can cause type-2-diabetes (permanent insulin resistance). Sugar consumption in the US reached its peak somewhere in the 1990s and has been falling ever since, yet the type-2-diabetes rates continued to grow.
Are you kidding me? Your body needs protein for just about everything, not just for gluconeogenesis.

Come back when you have your medical degree.

Well, I will never have a medical degree, as I am a computer science student, not a medicine student. Also, people with a medical degree know about nutritional science only slightly more than an average person, so it would not be relevant here. Besides, even though I am a computer science student, people on this forum do not trust me what I say about computers, so why would they trust me about nutritional science if only I had a medical degree?
