Title: Reducing diets in rats. Author: Hegsted DM, Gallagher A, Hanford H. Journal: Am J Clin Nutr; 1975 Aug; 28(8):837-40. PubMed ID: 1146742.

Loss in body weight and body fat was similar in all groups. The only significant dietary effect observed was a modest increase in the body protein content of the animals fed the high protein diets. Low carbohydrate--high fat--high protein diets, as expected, showed no advantage as reducing diets when compared to other diets on an equal calorie basis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
