Low-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 کاملVegetarian diets and weight status.
The increasing global health problems of overweight and obesity are associated with coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, osteoarthritis, and certain cancers, among other health concerns. Vegetarian diets are associated with reduced body weight, lower incidence of certain chronic disease, and lower medical costs compared with non-vegetarian diets. We reviewed the literature to ascerta...
متن کاملThermodynamics of weight loss diets
BACKGROUND: It is commonly held that "a calorie is a calorie", i.e. that diets of equal caloric content will result in identical weight change independent of macronutrient composition, and appeal is frequently made to the laws of thermodynamics. We have previously shown that thermodynamics does not support such a view and that diets of different macronutrient content may be expected to induce d...
متن کاملChanges in total body nitrogen during weight reduction by very-low-calorie diets.
Body composition measurements, including total body nitrogen (TBN) by in vivo neutron activation analysis, were made on 11 female volunteers before and after an 11-wk very-low-calorie diet (VLCD) [1695 kJ (405 kcal) 6.7 g N]. Mean body mass index (BMI) changed from 32.1 to 26.2 kg/m2, corresponding to a mean weight loss of 16.2 +/- 2.4 (SD) kg. The mean loss of TBN was 125 +/- 57 g, equivalent ...
متن کاملOA02.01. Effect of macronutrient composition of weight loss diets on reduction of the inflammatory marker hsCRP
Methods In the two-year POUNDS (Preventing Overweight Using Novel Dietary Strategies) LOST trial, overweight and obese adults were randomly allocated to one of four weight loss diets with targeted percentages of energy derived from fat/protein/carbohydrates (20/15/65%; 20/ 25/55%; 40/15/45%; 40/25/35%, respectively). All participants received tailored diet prescriptions with a 750 kilocalorie d...
