This is a corrigendum to the original article (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28074888) with the following correction:

Since the publication of the original article, the author has noticed that the references at the end of the third paragraph of the section ‘Experimental falsification of the carbohydrate–insulin model’ are incorrectly cited as 13, 14, where they should be 19, 20. The correction is given below:

‘In concordance with the model predictions, carbohydrate restriction led to increased fat oxidation reaching a maximum within a few days and remaining constant thereafter. However, neither study found the predicted augmentation of body fat loss with carbohydrate restriction. Rather, despite the reduction in insulin secretion, both studies found slightly less body fat loss during the carbohydrate restricted diets compared with isocaloric higher carbohydrate diets with identical protein.19,20’

However, for some strange reason, this published corrigendum goes on to incorrectly state the following:

The authors also noticed an error in reference 9. The correct reference is: Pahlavani N, Jafari M, Rezaei M, Rasad H, Sadeghi O, Rahdar HA, et al. L-arginine supplementation and risk factors of cardiovascular diseases in healthy men: a double-blind randomized clinical trial. F1000Res 2014; 3: 306. doi:10.12688/f1000research.5877.1.

The original reference 9 is actually correct and the author is mystified as to the source of this error.
