I'd wonder if your strains aren't due to low carb so much as low calorie.
Also, while I think low-carb can be good, I doubt the universal applicability of "50-100 grams of carbs for easy weight loss." When I went paleo, I did cut out all grains, and then seeing no improvement, almost all fruit, and saw no weight change. However, it's possible I was still eating over 100 grams of carbs, and second, I know I have a non-normal endocrine system, so maybe that was getting in the way.
