Eating Dairy Linked To Weight Loss
Health New Digest recently published an article outlining a new clinical trial published in Obesity Research (the journal of NAASO, the Obesity Society) provides more insight into why consuming dairy foods is linked to weight and fat loss.
“The design of this study is very strong as all of the subjects consumed both diets at different times and served as their own controls,” noted Edward Melanson, Ph.D., lead investigator and assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado. “Our data suggest that when you restrict calories slightly and increase calcium intake by increasing the number of low-fat dairy servings, the amount of fat you burn over 24 hours is increased. However, the precise explanation of how increasing dairy servings impacts fat metabolism and body weight is still unclear.”
