According to research, a low-glycemic-load diet enhanced weight
loss among certain volunteers on a reduced-calorie diet for
six months. The significant level of weight loss was limited
to those among the study participants who where considered
high-insulin-secreting. The findings could lead to more customized
weight-loss strategies in the future, though the results must
be replicated in a larger study before being considered definitive.
The study was performed at the HNRCA as part of a trial
funded by the National Institutes of Health. Half of the participants
were randomly assigned to a low-glycemic-load diet of 40 percent
carbohydrates, 30 percent protein and 30 percent fat. All
participants lost some weight as a result of restricting calories,
but those who lost the most had high baseline levels of insulin
secretion and ate the low-glycemic-load diet.
Apart from low glycemic diet, weight loss can be attained
by using diet
pills such as phentermine, Adipex and Xenical.
Diet pills are very effective for attaining short term weight
loss.
