Low-Carb versus Low-Fat Diets: Which is Right For You?

These days, when we hear the word “diet” we cringe.  We all hate the idea of denying ourselves the satisfaction of a bagel with cream cheese on a Monday morning or those slices of turkey bacon on a Sunday morning.  However, a recent study reveals that all sensible diets do actually show results and that people should pursue the one that is easiest for them.
​
The study by Dr. Bradley Johnston pooled nearly 7,300 individuals, specifically overweight to obese adults.  During the trials, Dr. Johnston randomized the adults and gave them each a specific diet to follow for a three-month period or longer.  The analysis showed that both low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets revealed weight loss.

Multiple studies have been conducted and are on going regarding the value and limitations of these specific diets.  This research has shown that for a diet to succeed it must match the individual’s goals and personal challenges. But above all else, consistency is key.
The good news is, there isn’t one specific miracle diet.  However, your diet does depend entirely upon you and the effort you put in to guaranteeing a healthier and happier life style.
