A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (2005, vol. 293, pp. 43--53 ) came to the conclusion that it doesn't matter which diet you follow, if you become health conscious and improve your food choices, you WILL loose weight.
The study followed participants assigned to 1 of the 4 currently popular diets, Ornish, Atkins, Zone and Weight Watchers.
| Dr. Robert Griffith MD, commenting on the study said " This study shows that there is little difference between four different types of diet - low-carb, balanced carb-protein-fat, low-calorie, and low-fat. All four had a high (over 50%) drop-out rate, and produced only moderate weight loss and cardiac risk reduction. It's obvious that sticking with a diet will achieve a better result in both weight reduction and lessened cardiac risk factors. No single diet was better than another in these respects, or more effective than another. So, forget the latest fad diet. Instead of spending time and money trying to determine which diet is the right one, you should start one that you believe you can stick to - and then stick to it! |
