Low-carb and Mediterranean diets beat low-fat for weight-loss, lipid changes at two years
I posted this yesterday at 7pm, but it never got here. Listen to the ADA
(still nut-jobs). -------- Beer-Sheva, Israel - Both a low-carbohydrate diet or a Mediterranean-style diet may be "effective alternatives" to a low-fat diet, with more favorable effects on lipids and/or glycemic control, new research suggests [1]. The two-year study, which managed to keep almost 85% of the 322 study participants on one of the three diets for the entire period, offers the hope that weight-loss diets can be tailored to personal preferences, without sacrificing efficacy, researchers say. "Several recent one-year dietary studies have led the American Diabetes Association to state in January 2008 that low-carb diets should be considered for a maximum of one year," lead author on the study, Dr Iris Shai (Ben Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel), told heartwire. "The current two-year study suggests that one low-fat diet doesn't fit all, meaning that the old paradigm should be reconsidered." http://www.theheart.org/viewArticle...._id=tho16jul08 |

They make is sound like LC or Mediteranean diets are some second choice alternative to the usual LF diet when in fact both produced results that were superior to LF, including cholesterol improvement and C reactive protein. And then for good measure, they throw in the i year limit, which clearly implies they still think LC is dangerous. |

The Only if you eat that Mediterranean food in the same quantity as the slender inhabitants of that part of the world. two-year study, which managed to keep almost 85% of the 322 study participants on one of the three diets for the entire period, offers the hope that weight-loss diets can be tailored to personal preferences, without sacrificing efficacy, researchers say. ``Tailoring for personal preferences'' is simply another way of saying ``Reducing the amount of the preferred type of food.'' Doh. |
