Answer:

The correct answer is option C.  

Explanation:

Low carbohydrate diets cause muscle loss that can lose the metabolism of an individual and can lead to more fat storage in the body. If an individual gets low carbs his body starts breaking fat but going below a specific limit of carbohydrate intake can cause hearing, organ and muscle weakening as the protein of these organs begins to breakdown to amino acids to provide much-needed glucose.

Carbohydrate has a sparring effect on the proteins that limit the muscle catabolism process which means it reduces the breakdown of protein into amino acid so low carbohydrate disease can cause the weakening of these muscles and organs.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Over a period of time it will cause skin aging which appears as wrinkles and age spots. This can be removed by the use of antioxidant like Vitamin A, C, and E which donated an electron to the free radicals so that the free radicals doesn't have to take the electron from the cells of the skin.
