An evaluation of a low-carbohydrate diet for the treatment of obesity in a ‘real life’ dietetic weight management clinic [PDF]
This dissertation aimed to investigate whether a low-carbohydrate diet could achieve clinically significant weight loss (≥5% body weight) in obese patients seen over a six month period. Patients were seen at an NHS specialist weight management service in

Isoenergetic feeding of low carbohydrate-high fat diets does not increase brown adipose tissue thermogenic capacity in rats [PDF]
Low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LC-HF) diets are popular for inducing weight loss in overweighed adults. Adaptive thermogenesis increased by specific effects of macronutrients on energy expenditure has been postulated to induce this weight loss.

Long-term weight maintenance and cardiovascular risk factors are not different following weight loss on carbohydrate-restricted diets high in either monounsaturated fat or protein in obese hyperinsulinaemic men and women [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine after 52 weeks whether advice to follow a lower carbohydrate diet, either high in monounsaturated fat or low fat, high in protein had differential effects in a free-living community setting. Following weight loss on

Effects of proportions of dietary macronutrients on glucocorticoid metabolism in diet-induced obesity in rats. [PDF]
Tissue glucocorticoid levels in the liver and adipose tissue are regulated by regeneration of inactive glucocorticoid by 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11beta-HSD1) and inactivation by 5alpha- and 5beta-reductases.
