Stop Breaking Your Head Over a Low-carb or Low-fat Diet Plan!

3/11/2018

​What diet worked for your friend or even your husband might not work for you! Losing weight too takes trials and errors sometimes to work just fine as genes, family and the environment define what, why and how much you eat. If one diet did not do the trick, try adapting some other diet. Some are for a low-carb diet and some others support a low-fat diet. There is no more need for confusing yourself any more as studies have proved that 1-year weight loss was similar with a healthy low-fat or a low-carbohydrate diet. Also, neither insulin secretion nor genotype proved useful to decide whether one diet was better over the other for any individual.

This study also falsified two of the most common assumptions:
  1. While initial trials proved that overweight people would enjoy increased weight loss when they followed a low-carb or low-fat diet depending on their genotype, this assumption was falsified.
  2. Also, individuals with increased insulin secretion did not benefit from greater weight loss when they followed a healthy low-carb diet.

Different Diets for Different Kinds of People
We discuss over different diets and repent why certain diets don’t work for us when it has done wonders for our friends! Instead of focusing on the best diet plan, it would be great if we divert our attention on the best diet for us as diet works differently on different individuals.

The participants included in the study were educated and could afford high-quality foods. All of them were between 18 and 50 years (mean age 40) of which 57% were women with a BMI of 28 to 40. The study did not include postmenopausal women or individuals with too much hypertension, diabetes, metabolic syndrome or other criteria. The participants were given a set of general instructions that asked them to:
  1. Include ample healthy vegetables, minimally processed nutritious whole foods that are cooked at home as much as possible.
  2. Avoid taking foods with refined sugars, flour and trans fat. Exercise was also a mandatory part of their diet program.
  3. Eat in such as way that it did not make them feel hungry or crave for foods. For instance, soda might be low-fat, but it was not healthy. Lard might be low-carb, but avocados are a better choice.

The participants also gave blood tests to check insulin levels and for genes related to fat and carbs metabolism. After 12 months, the results showed that participants who followed a healthy low-fat diet lost 5.3 kg while those who followed a healthy low-carb diet lost 6.0 kg which proves no great difference between the two diets. The participants showed no relationship between weight loss and insulin/genotype too. But one case of concern was that the results varied between a 30-kg weight loss to a 10-kg weight gain which researchers now feel could be the work of microbiome, epigenetics or some different gene expression pattern which needs further probing.

One thing that is proved beyond doubt is that, any kind of diet insists on eating less sugar and refined flour and eating more vegetables. Also, this kind of diet plan would not be a one-time plan but a kind of plan that could be incorporated into your daily lifestyle. So low-fat or low-carb, neither is more or less effective and both help you shed excess calories in the same ratio. The best way to pursue a diet plan is to get in touch with a registered dietitian nutritionist at www.firsteatright.com who can design the best diet plan suitable for your body composition.
