The Battle of the Diets: Is Anyone Winning (At Losing?)


ADVERTISEMENTS
By admin On January 23, 2009 Under Diet Programs

Welcome back!

January 17, 2008 presentation by Christopher Gardner for the Stanford School of Medicine Medcast lecture series.

The case for low-carbohydrate diets is gaining weight. Christopher Gardner, PhD, assistant professor of medicine at the Stanford Prevention Research Center, has completed the largest and longest-ever comparison of four popular diets using real-world conditions, which he discusses - the lowest-carbohydrate Atkins diet came out on top.

I think it’s copyright issue.

As for low-carb dieters failing to maintain the initial carb intake, they aren’t supposed to if on Atkins specifically. Induction is a rather extreme restriction of carbs and is meant to last for *at least* two weeks. Atkins says it’s ok to extend beyond that if you think you can. At some point, ALL Atkins dieters are supposed to increase their carbs to a level that simply allows them to maintain, rather than loose, weight.

I wish you would have talked more about lipolysis and ketoacidocis. They are a necessary component to the Atkins Diet but many people are not aware or do not understand them. I have lost 14% of my weight over the past 5 months on
Atkins and suffered with obesity for over 12 years. Also, if you do not get enough calories in your diet, you will go into starvation mode and your body will hold onto its stored fat for dear life! I wish you would have talked about its influence on your study. TY
