I have been following the 17 day diet plan which is low carb. During a period of time off the plan, I developed increased skipped heart beats knows as PVCs. I've had them a long time, but recently they have been severe. Through some research as to why this was happening I stumbled upon the following info, which may give us all the more reason the stick to a low carb diet:

".... patients with wheat and gluten issues benefit from eliminating wheat and flour products. Most notable have been some cases of premature contractions (PVC) common skipped or extra heart beats that scare the heck out of people when they happen. PVCs are usually benign and can be triggered by stress......in gluten sensitive individuals, eating bread, bagels, crackers, pasta, and other grain-based food items can trigger PVCs." www.drsinatra.com
