Post-menopausal obese women (n = 24; HIP = 9; LOP = 15; mean age = 58 ± 6.6; mean BMI = 33.0 ± 3.6) were provided meals from our GCRC kitchen for 5 months. Body composition was assessed by dual energy absorptiometry. The HIP group lost 8.4 ± 4.5 kg and the LOP group lost...
Researchers report for the first time that consuming nearly a third of daily calories as lean protein – for example, lean meats without the skin – speeds up a person’s metabolism③ during sleep and that higher protein intake increases the burning of calories and fat during th...
Chicken is a good source of lean protein that boosts satiety and helps build lean muscle mass. Even though it’s best to opt for a plant-based protein, if you can’t imagine your meal without meat, chicken can be an option too. A cup of cooked and chopped chicken contains 38 grams,...

A reduced ratio of dietary carbohydrate to protein improves body composition and blood lipid profiles during weight loss in adult women. Claims about the merits or risks of carbohydrate (CHO) vs. protein for weight loss diets are extensive, yet the ideal ratio of dietary carbohydrate to prot.....
Energy restriction is a common therapeutic approach for weight reduction, but the most effective macronutrient distribution of the hypoenergetic diet as well as the role of the metabolic processes involved require further investigations. To study the effect of a high protein (HP) hypoenergetic diet ...
Improving Diet, Exercise, and Lifestyle for Women Study VAT visceral adipose tissue Introduction Weight loss in overweight and obese persons through diet and/or exercise can confer a host of metabolic benefits (1, 2). Although energy restriction alone often leads to weight loss, the tissue compos...
Area Under the Time Concentration Curves (AUC) were using trapezoidal functions for insulin, which was the primary outcome measure, as well as secondary outcomes measures including postprandial glucose, triglycerides, urea, and BCAAs. Total BCAA was calculated as the sum of valine, leucine, and is...
