The biochemistry of low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets
Current Opinion in Endocrinology, Diabetes & Obesity, 2020Purpose of review To summarize the underlying biochemical basis for low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets (LC/KD) and provide mechanisms to account for demonstrated effectiveness. Recent findings LC/KD continue to have success, to outperform other diets as well as most drugs for ...

American family physician, 2006
Americans spend dollar 33 billion annually on weight loss products and services, and a large portion of this money is spent on low-carbohydrate diets. Because of their higher protein and fat content and lower fiber and carbohydrate content, concerns have been raised about the potential health consequences of low-carbohydrate diets.

The Low-Carbohydrate Diet in the Treatment of Obesity
Postgraduate Medicine, 1972Obese patients are not likely to follow a diet that is unpalatable and unsatisfying. With the low-carbohydrate diet, patients limit carbohydrate to about 50 or 60 gm a day and eat as much protein and fat as they want. This plan gives palatability, satisfaction of hunger, good nutrition, and a deficit of 1000 cal a day or more.

A Century of Low-Carbohydrate Diets
Nutrition Today, 2006This article is a primer on low-carbohydrate diets: their history, how they have measured up in clinical trials, and how to work with them today. For more than a century, low-carbohydrate diets have cycled in and out of fashion, each time returning with the promise of quick and easy weight loss.

A Randomized Trial of a Low-Carbohydrate Diet for Obesity
New England Journal of Medicine, 2003Despite the popularity of the low-carbohydrate, high-protein, high-fat (Atkins) diet, no randomized, controlled trials have evaluated its efficacy.We conducted a one-year, multicenter, controlled trial involving 63 obese men and women who were randomly assigned to either a low-carbohydrate, high-protein, high-fat diet or a low-calorie, high ...

Low‐carbohydrate diets: nutritional and physiological aspects
Obesity Reviews, 2006SummaryRecently, diets low in carbohydrate content have become a matter of international attention because of the WHO recommendations to reduce the overall consumption of sugars and rapidly digestible starches. One of the common metabolic changes assumed to take place when a person follows a low‐carbohydrate diet is ketosis.

Low-carbohydrate diets: An update on current research
Current Diabetes Reports, 2009The diabetes and obesity epidemics have stimulated research to assess the benefits and potential risks of low-carbohydrate diets. Carbohydrate comprises less than 45% of calories in carbohydrate-restricted diets, but very low carbohydrate ketogenic diets may restrict carbohydrate to 20 g initially with variability in the carbohydrate level subsequently.

Low carbohydrate diet is vindicated
BMJ, 2003For years authorities such as the American Heart Association and the US Department of Agriculture have recommended a high carbohydrate, low fat diet for cardiovascular health and weight loss, while Americans have grown ever fatter. Meanwhile Dr Robert Atkins' low carbohydrate “steak and eggs” diet books have sold 10 million copies and led to anecdotal ...

The effect of a low-carbohydrate diet on bone turnover
Osteoporosis International, 2006Low-carbohydrate diets have become popular as weight loss techniques. These diets are high in protein, saturated fats, and omega-6 fatty acids. They also lead to a ketogenic state. These factors could lead to increased bone turnover. This study was designed to see whether a low-carbohydrate diet would lead to increased bone turnover in humans.Thirty ...

Low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets revisited
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2008There has been continued interest in the physiological, nutritional and clinical aspects of low-carbohydrate diets. This review will discuss the effects on appetite regulation, metabolic parameters, body weight and body composition, the role of glycemic index and glycemic load, as well as long-term outcomes.Low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets appear ...
