Low-carb diet out-performs low-fat diet in the weight loss stakes

Low-carb diet out-performs low-fat diet in the weight loss stakes

Whether a low-fat for low-carb diet is, overall, best for weight control is perhaps one of the most discussed, not to mention contentious, issues in nutrition. There are, in fact, several studies that have found low-carb diets to be generally superior to low-fat regimes in terms of weight loss. One such study was published this week in the New England Journal of Medicine. This two-year study found that not only was a low-carb diet better than a low-fat one in terms of weight loss, it also led to superior improvements in blood fat levels too.
