I don't think "Protein Poisoning" is of serious concern. The dietary guidelines people could find no suitable upper limit for protein. But I agree that it would be better to know more about these diets.
They also only followed metabolism for 7 days when it takes several weeks to adapt to low or high carb, so you kind of need to see what the markers look like at six weeks plus for this kind of study.
Q:So was the fat intake for the low carb group and which band (% protein) had the elevated insulin resistance?
Since we do know that over eating Protein, causes Protein Poisoning, if intake is more than 35% of your diet.
