Yeah, it's interesting stuff. In my case, I was eating a ton of red meat, cheese, etc on a lower carb diet and my cholesterol shot up to dangerous levels. Steered towards chicken, fish, less cheese... and it went back to normal relatively quickly.
Not to say there weren't other factors, but those were the two big reductions in my diet without (knowingly) changing carbs much.
