According to common sense to loose weight you need to consume less calories. Therefore it was proposed to cut down on fat because it contains a lot of calories. Therefore low fat foods were created. However the results of consuming low fat food were disappointing. Therefore they came up with another idea: low carb diet. The result? Which approach is better?
The study from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, done on 322 volunteers, show that people who eat low carbs or Mediterranean diet loose more weight and get more benefits for their heats. The explanations of this fact may be as follows:
1. Low fat food may be bulked up with starch.
2. Starch causes blood sugar and hence insulin swings, resulting in appetite increase. Same as low nicotine cigarettes: less nicotine, but more cigarettes taken.
