The Harvard Gazette reports that reduced consumption of starchy vegetables is associated with less weight gain.

But then irresponsibly adds false information:

"This is the same reason that low-carb diets — often promoted as beneficial to weight loss — don’t work, Wan explained."

Has Dr. Wan not read an entire body of peer-reviewed literature on the effectiveness of low carb diets for weight loss?

If Dr. Wan doesn't like low-carb diets, that's fine, but she shouldn't be spreading misinformation. It reflects poorly on @HarvardHealth
