Eating More and Properly For Loosing Weight


This article details the latest research that deals with effective weight loss through proper eating.

According to the November 26 2010 evening bulletin of the Greek Television station ET1, recent research suggests that a high protein low carbohydrate diet will lead to a full stomach and effective weight loss.

A number of people may at one or another point in their lives experience a weight problem. Many people who feel, or are, overweight try to eliminate the extra pounds either by eating less; this crash attempt many times leads to detrimental health effects.

Undoubtedly, overweight issues should be first be brought to the attention of a qualified physician and dietician who is the most suitable to prescribe a proper strategy that will eventually, with patience lead to the desired effects. Crash diets frequently lead to weight gain rather than weight loss since the individual’s body, or metabolism , responds in such a way as to lead the individual to massive eating, or pigging out, to replace the perceived loss of energy.

High Protein Low Fat

One of the largest research projects called Diogenes, and dealing with proper nourishment and effective dieting has lead to the conclusion that effective weight loss (without any collateral damage or related side effects) can be accomplished by a high protein low carbohydrate diet. This diet must be accompanied by ample high fiber, fruit and vegetable intakes as university of Copenhagen researchers point out in their treatise in the New England Journal of Medicine.

The research which involved a group of about 950 individuals concludes that individuals following such a diet can eat to their limits, without incurring any extra weight while actually positioning their bodily functions towards actual weight loss.

The related control group which usually ate to the brim, actually gained about ½ a kilo in a six month period, while other groups following other diets gained about 2 kilos.

The consumption of high protein from foods such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs, low fat dairy products, beans and nuts leads to faster intake satisfaction than other food combinations, and effectively less fat.

Not The Atkins Diet

The strategy detailed by the Danish scientists comes terribly close to what is known as the Atkins diet, which is followed by a number of well known Hollywood celebrities. The scientists however emphasize that while the Atkins method involves 50% of daily calorie intake from protein, the Diogenes diet invokes a 23% protein based calorie intake.

A Wholesome Greek Salad

The latest research results suggest that a classical Greek salad, the crown jewel of the so called Mediterranean diet, which incorporates fresh tomatoes, fresh green peppers, olives, onions, cucumber, capers, parsley, topped with feta cheese and lavishly embellished with oregano and ample virgin olive oil may be an ideal food candidate for those wishing to engage in a fulfilling healthy and high energy low fat meal.
