  • Title: [The significance of carbohydrates in reducing diets].
    Author: Zwiauer K.
    Journal: Infusionstherapie; 1989 Aug; 16(4):176-81. PubMed ID: 2680991.
    Abstract:
    The importance of carbohydrates in weight reducing regimens on different metabolic aspects is shown by comparing the effects of two extreme dietary regimens: 'ketogenic' diet, consisting primarily of proteins and fat and the 'mixed' diet, containing mainly carbohydrates. The effects on hunger and satiety, weight loss and nitrogen balance are discussed as well as influences on electrolytes, body fluids and the sympathetic system. Hormonal changes of the two dietary regimens and the impact on mood and subjective acceptance are compared. Though no recommendation for a particular dietary regimen is given, the different implications on the parameters described are pointed out.
