Study Summary
This pilot study is a randomized, controlled clinical trial to compare anthropometric and metabolic changes associated with six months of weight management by means of a very low carbohydrate diet or a calorically-restricted low fat diet. We hypothesized that the low fat diet would be associated with more weight loss and improvement of cardiovascular risk factors than the low carbohydrate diet.
