Description

SummaryIn this Nutrition Science Bites episode, Professor Clare Collins interviews Professor Christopher Gardner from Stanford University about his research testing a head to head comparison of low fat versus a low carb diet. In the DIETFITS study (Diet Intervention Examining the Factors Interacting with Treatment Success) he found major variation in individual responses to each diet. Prof Gardner shares insights on genetic and metabolic factors influencing weight loss and how individual metabolic differences affect change in body weight in response to each diet. They discuss the importance of personalising dietary approaches, and psychological factors that influence being able to "stick" to diets or not. The conversation covers gender differences in diet adherence, influence of social norms and the need for ongoing support to achieve weight related health goals and the importance of food quality over calorie or kilojoule restriction.More about the DIETFITS study here https://med.stanford.edu/nutrition/research/completed-studies/diet-study.htmlChris's Glazed Eggplant, pumpkin and tempeh bake: https://nomoneynotime.com.au/healthy-easy-recipes/chriss-glazed-eggplant-pumpkin-and-tempeh-bakeAre you in a position to make donation to support Our No Money No Time website?
