“…The average BMI reported in each of the remaining 35 studies ranged from 21.8 to 43 kg m −2 . Seven studies included data points for participants with an average BMI within the lean range (18–25 kg m −2 ) , nine included subjects within the overweight range (25–30 kg m −2 ) and 20 included subjects within the obese range (>30 kg m −2 ) . A high prevalence of diabetes and one or more components of the metabolic syndrome were reported in seven of the studies .…”

Protein leverage and energy intake

Increased energy intakes are contributing to overweight and obesity. Growing evidence supports the role of protein appetite in driving excess intake when dietary protein is diluted (the protein leverage hypothesis). Understanding the interactions between dietary macronutrient balance and nutrient-specific appetite systems will be required for designing dietary interventions that work with, rather than against, basic regulatory physiology. Data were collected from 38 published experimental trials measuring ad libitum intake in subjects confined to menus differing in macronutrient composition. Collectively, these trials encompassed considerable variation in percent protein (spanning 8-54% of total energy), carbohydrate (1.6-72%) and fat (11-66%). The data provide an opportunity to describe the individual and interactive effects of dietary protein, carbohydrate and fat on the control of total energy intake. Percent dietary protein was negatively associated with total energy intake (F = 6.9, P < 0.0001) irrespective of whether carbohydrate (F = 0, P = 0.7) or fat (F = 0, P = 0.5) were the diluents of protein. The analysis strongly supports a role for protein leverage in lean, overweight and obese humans. A better appreciation of the targets and regulatory priorities for protein, carbohydrate and fat intake will inform the design of effective and health-promoting weight loss diets, food labelling policies, food production systems and regulatory frameworks.

“…Aftereffects of the Stillman diet are easy fatigue, lassitude and mild nausea mainly because of the initial fluid loss. The Stillman diet is strongly recommended for short time period especially in middle-aged persons who may have coronary artery disease because of the large amount of animal products ingested [103].…”

High Protein Diet and Metabolic Plasticity in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Myths and Truths

2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by lipid accumulation within the liver affecting 1 in 4 people worldwide. As the new silent killer of the twenty-first century, NAFLD impacts on both the request and the availability of new liver donors. The liver is the first line of defense against endogenous and exogenous metabolites and toxins. It also retains the ability to switch between different metabolic pathways according to food type and availability. This ability becomes a disadvantage in obesogenic societies where most people choose a diet based on fats and carbohydrates while ignoring vitamins and fiber. The chronic exposure to fats and carbohydrates induces dramatic changes in the liver zonation and triggers the development of insulin resistance. Common believes on NAFLD and different diets are based either on epidemiological studies, or meta-analysis, which are not controlled evidences; in most of the cases, they are biased on test-subject type and their lifestyles. The highest success in reverting NAFLD can be attributed to diets based on high protein instead of carbohydrates. In this review, we discuss the impact of NAFLD on body metabolic plasticity. We also present a detailed analysis of the most recent studies that evaluate high-protein diets in NAFLD with a special focus on the liver and the skeletal muscle protein metabolisms.

“…The mean cholesterol level increased significantly from 215 mg per/100 mL at baseline to 248 mg per/100 mL at the end of the diet. Below are the Baseline triglyceride level measurements: 159, 93, 130, 174, 148, 148, 85, 180, 92, 89, 204, 182, 110, 88, 134, 84. Data Source: Rickman et al (1974) The sample is positively skewed with skewness = 0.23 and short-tailed with kurtosis = -1.52, mean = 131.25, SD = 40.74 and sample size is 16. There seems to be some concerns with the normality assumption about this set of data both from the histogram and the QQ plot.…”
