"Regardless of Carbohydrate, Protein or Fat Content"

The conclusion of the title of this page is way off.

Where is the elements of the study with 10% carbs, or 5% carbs, or less ?

Weight loss (Atkins, Taubes, Montingnac, Banting, Mendosa) over the last 150 years is known to be easier and faster with carb restriction. Particularly high GI carbs.

The conclusion, and perhaps the skew in favor of "no difference" is designed to support the bankrupt AHA-lead hypothesis of of a carb heavy food pyramid, and the suggestion that cutting calories is the way to go.
