Well, true on the blood sugar response, but you can also lower the blood sugar response by not eating high-glycemic-index foods in the first place. Or, you could eat resistant starches if you really want a starch. So I don't necessarily disagree with you, but unless you're living a very active lifestyle I think it'd be better to remove carbs than add fiber.

The thing is basically nobody eats enough fiber, so that's one big ticket optimization you can make. And the trouble with "eat less carbs" is that people take that and run with it, and cut out fruits and veggies, which is not going to help them.

I agree people should eat less carbs in general, but we need to be careful. Ultimately, replacing kale or something with bacon, which is basically tobacco in meat form, isn't going to improve their health. Eat less carbs, eat more protein, but eat the right protein, and the right carbs.
