Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
A low carb diet usually do not cause chest pain. It's may be due to some change in diet which might lead to acidity problem and reflux leading to mild chest pain. Otherwise such low carb diet is not associated with chest pain. Try some antacid like pantoprazole.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
