Default Talk me through this new study please!

I'm transitioning from a mostly whole foods plant focused diet, to a moderate carb diet that's greatly reducing my whole grains, fruit and legumes intake while increasing fat and protein. And then I read this, which lines up with so many of the other things I've read about whole grains, fruit etc being important for long term good health etc. Sooo, for those of you who have who've been doing lower carb a lot longer than I have-please take a look at the article/study and convince me that I haven't made a mistake by switching over to a lower carb way of eating

(the sodium part of the study lines up with what I've read in other places, so no argument there)

https://www.bloombergquint.com/onwe...h-sodium-intake
http://www.healthdata.org/research-...analysis-global

This is the part that really got to me (from first link) "Of the top 10 dietary factors that cause the highest number of deaths globally, eight of them are related to low intake of healthy foods rather than high intake of unhealthy foods."
But most of these foods are the ones I've been cutting way down on/out, since I started switching to lower carb last week.... so is my diet going backwards?
