That was the headline in an article in today's paper. People were followed for two years; the average weight loss for both groups was the same: 15 lbs. The difference was the improved good cholesterol level for the low-carb dieters. This study was done led by Gary Foster, director of Temple University's Center for Obesity Research and Education; this study was funded by the federal government.
This study shows the same results that the grain-free people have been talking about! In the newspaper article it said : "Why the low-carb diet had a bigger effect on good cholesterol isn't known, the researcher said." It's interesting that no one seems to do research on separating grain free diets from other low carb diets. I think there's a correlation between eating grain-free and better health, including blood glucose levels, cholesterol levels, and iron levels.
I wish I could get federal money and have people study the results I've been getting on the way I've been eating...
