Tip of the Week
You may have noticed that the volume and variety of low-carb foods at our local grocer has diminished recently. New research shows that when it comes to nutrition and weight-control the trend is a positive one. A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that consuming adequate protein and not limiting carbohydrate intake keeps us full and aids in both weight loss and control. Research at the University of Washington School of Medicine kept the percentage of carbohydrate of their test diets constant, while varying the percentages of protein and fat. Their results showed that protein is more satisfying than fat and that eating a low-fat (20 percent of calories), moderate protein (30 percent of calories) and moderate carbohydrate (50 percent of calories) diet is most effective in staying satiated and maintaining a healthy weight.
