Brief Summary:
This study will compare the safety and effectiveness of a low carbohydrate diet Atkins Diet with a high carbohydrate diet conventional USDA diet
Detailed Description:
Despite the considerable mass appeal of popular diet books such diet approaches lack data to support their efficacy and safety Despite its widespread use for more than 30 years the Atkins diet has never been evaluated in a large randomized controlled trial This study will assess the short-term and long-term clinical effects of a low-carbohydrate diet and a high-carbohydrate diet in overweight and obese men and women
Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to the Atkins diet low-carbohydrate unlimited fat and protein or a conventional USDA diet high-carbohydrate low fat The study will evaluate the effects of each dietary approach on changes in 1 weight and body composition 2 metabolic and organ function 3 exercise tolerance Each participant will be enrolled in the study for 2 years
