High-Protein Diet
More research is needed before experts can make sweeping recommendations that people boost the protein in their diets, according to the American Dietetic Association.
But some new research hints that protein may be able to satisfy hunger better than either fats or carbohydrates.
For example, in a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people were put on a diet in which:
· Fat was reduced to 20% of calories
· Protein was increased to 30% of calories
· Carbs made up 50% of diet
People on that diet reported that they:
· Were more satisfied
· Less hungry
· Lost weight
Another study in the Journal of Nutrition combined a high-protein diet with exercise. People in that study had:
· Enhanced weight loss
· Improved blood fat levels
