Low Fat vs. Low Carbohydrate Diet Strategies for Weight Reduction: A Meta- Analysis
Background: Overweight and obesity are a global crisis. Lifestyle interventions, including weight loss diets, are the first line treatment for this problem. In addition to energy restriction, some diets emphasize manipulation of macronutrient composition to promote weight loss. Such diets may be broadly classified into low fat and low carbohydrate diets. Objective: This meta-analysis was design...
متن کاملLow-Fat Versus Low-Carbohydrate Weight Reduction Diets
OBJECTIVE Low-fat hypocaloric diets reduce insulin resistance and prevent type 2 diabetes in those at risk. Low-carbohydrate, high-fat diets are advocated as an alternative, but reciprocal increases in dietary fat may have detrimental effects on insulin resistance and offset the benefits of weight reduction. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We investigated a low-fat (20% fat, 60% carbohydrate) ver...
متن کاملSystematic Review with Meta-analysis Very-low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet v. low-fat diet for long-term weight loss: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
The role of very-low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets (VLCKD) in the long-term management of obesity is not well established. The present meta-analysis aimed to investigate whether individuals assigned to a VLCKD (i.e. a diet with no more than 50 g carbohydrates/d) achieve better long-term body weight and cardiovascular risk factor management when compared with individuals assigned to a conventiona...
متن کاملComparison of Low-Carbohydrate Vs. A Low-Fat Diet on Prostate Cancer Biomarkers
Low-carbohydrate diets slow prostate cancer (PC) growth in mice, but PC-safety is questioned due to high-fat content. In this exploratory, ancillary and hypothesisgenerating study, we compared sera from PC-free men in a randomized trial of low-fat vs. low-carbohydrate diets for weight loss for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) effects and in vitro PC growth. Baseline and week-24 serum were applie...
متن کاملWeight Loss with a Low-Carbohydrate, Mediterranean, or Low-Fat Diet
To the Editor: How do Shai et al. (July 17 issue)1 explain why the subjects in their study regained weight between month 6 and month 24, despite a reported reduction of 300 to 600 calories per day? Contributing possibilities may include the notion that a food-frequency questionnaire cannot precisely determine energy or macronutrient intake but, rather, ascertains general dietary patterns. Certa...
