It’s an ongoing debate in the nutrition world: Is one kind of diet—say, low carb or low fat—better than another for weight loss?

Now, it looks there’s another wrinkle to add to the mix: The BMJ just published a report, which found that people who followed a low-carb diet burned more calories than those who consumed a high-carb diet.
