New Study Provides Support For Those Who Advocate A High ProteinDiet For Weight Loss And Better Health
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0720091015.htm
or http://www.the-aps.org/press/journal/04/19.htm Was Atkins Right? New Study Provides Support For Those Who Advocate A High Protein Diet For Weight Loss And Better Health The authors of “A long-term high-protein diet markedly reduces adipose tissue without major side-effects in Wistar male rats,” are Magali Lacroix, Claire Gaudichon, Celine Morens, Veronique Mathe, Daniel Tome, and Jean-Francois Huneau, all from the Physiologie de la Nutrition et du Comportement alimentaire, Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon, Paris; and Antoine Martin, at the Service d’Anatomie pathologique, Hôpital Avicenne, Bobigny, both in France. Their findings appear in the Articles in Press section of the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology. The journal is one of 14 scientific publications issued each month by the American Physiological Society (APS) (www.the-aps.org). Conclusions This unique long-term study found that in male rats, a protein intake of three times the requirements did not produce any adverse effects on the renal and hepatic functions, on oxidative stress or on the calcium balance. On the contrary, exchanging carbohydrates for proteins was beneficial regarding body composition, basal triglycerides, glucose, leptin, and insulin plasma concentrations. The results of the present study agree with the idea that long-term dietary management is of major importance to preventing obesity. This study will not settle the long-standing debate regarding the merits of a high protein diet. However, these findings will provide support to those who advocate such a regimen for weight loss and better health. -- ................................ Keepsake gift for young girls.
