Study Summary
The aim of the proposed study is to provide important data on weight loss efficacy in overweight and obese adolescents on an isocaloric higher protein diet vs a lower protein diet utilizing the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) MyPlate nutrition guide. The investigators hypothesize that the higher protein diet will result in greater weight loss due to increased satiety and better dietary adherence.
