After this stage, subjects were randomly allocated to 1 of the 2 diets (LC or MC) and were instructed to eat ad
libitum for a 4 - wk period (days 4 — 31).

While the benefits of calorie restriction (CR — reducing food provisions relative to ad
libitum, «free choice» consumption)
for metabolic / aging - related disease prevention and longevity promotion are well documented in multiple organisms, the molecular basis
for these benefits is still debated... >> MORE
«Caloric restriction (60 % of ad
libitum intake) maintained only during the 2 - week experimental period did not affect collagen accumulation, but did result in decreased levels of the difunctional crosslink dihydroxylysinonor - leucine (DHLNL) in sponges implanted
for 10 days.»
Rats were singly housed, fed rodent chow, given water ad
libitum, and provided huts, bedding, chewable items, and cereal
for enrichment.
Mice were caged in groups of no more than five, fed mouse chow and given water ad
libitum, and provided huts, bedding and chewable items
for enrichment.
All mice were housed in our Association
for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care - accredited barrier facility on a 12 h light / dark cycle, and given ad
libitum access to food (NIH31 Diet, Harlan no. 7917) and water.
Compared to ad
libitum fed controls, rodents maintained on IER (100 % ER / alternate days)
for periods of 12 to 24 weeks typically exhibit lower post-treatment levels of fasting glucose 14, 16, 17, 29 and insulin.16, 17, 29 Using this particular IER protocol, Jiang et al28 have also demonstrated an increase in oral glucose tolerance and tissue insulin sensitivity (measured using a hyperinsulinemic - euglycemic clamp) after four weeks in healthy rats.
The decrease in insulin AUC to baseline values after 12 wk of the ad
libitum high - protein diet most likely reflects a decrease in the stimulus
for insulin secretion resulting from the overall decrease in energy intake by this point in the study.
Design: Appetite, caloric intake, body weight, and fat mass were measured in 19 subjects placed sequentially on the following diets: a weight - maintaining diet (15 % protein, 35 % fat, and 50 % carbohydrate)
for 2 wk, an isocaloric diet (30 % protein, 20 % fat, and 50 % carbohydrate)
for 2 wk, and an ad
libitum diet (30 % protein, 20 % fat, and 50 % carbohydrate)
for 12 wk.
While alternate - day fasting leads to calorie restriction over a two - day period in many rodent species, in some strains of mice, the animals managed to compensate
for the calorie deficit created on fast days by increasing their intake on feast days twofold and thus keeping the total calorie intake over a two day period at the same level as in mice fed an ad
libitum diet (17).
The fasting duration usually lasts
for 24 to 120 hours, followed by the refeeding period, during which the ad
libitum to food was permitted, thus forming a cycle.
Numerous subsequent studies have confirmed that a calorie restriction of 30 to 60 percent of ad
libitum intake increases the life span by similar amounts in a range of organisms including yeast, roundworms and rodents, while simultaneously decreasing or delaying the occurrence of age related diseases such as numerous cancers (including lymphomas, breast and prostate cancers), hypertension, stroke, diabetes, nephropathy, autoimmune disorders and other risks factors
for cardiovascular disease (3,4).
This diet included «chapattis, or flat bread, made of wholemeal wheat flour, lightly smeared with fresh butter, sprouted pulse, fresh raw carrots and fresh raw cabbage ad
libitum, unboiled whole milk, a small ration of meat with bones once a week, and an abundance of water, both
for drinking and washing.»
I await the data which indicates that a low fat, high starch, ad
libitum diet is superior to high fat, low starch / carb diets
for the treatment of diabetes.
(These experimental diets contained a higher percentage of fat than is typically observed in an ad
libitum LCD, and thus they were more characteristic of an ancestral Inuit diet or the ketogenic diet
for epilepsy.)
For each phase, they reduced calories for 11 days followed by 3 days of ad libitum (i.e. at one's pleasure) eati
For each phase, they reduced calories

for 11 days followed by 3 days of ad
libitum (i.e. at one's pleasure) eating.
Adhering to these traditional concepts the US Department of Agriculture has concluded that diets, which reduce calories, will result in effective weight loss independent of the macronutrient composition, which is considered less important, even irrelevant.14 In contrast with these views, the majority of ad -
libitum studies demonstrate that subjects who follow a low - carbohydrate diet lose more weight during the first 3 — 6 months compared with those who follow balanced diets.15, 16, 17 One hypothesis is that the use of energy from proteins in VLCKD is an «expensive» process
for the body and so can lead to a «waste of calories», and therefore increased weight loss compared with other «less - expensive» diets.13, 18, 19 The average human body requires 60 — 65 g of glucose per day, and during the first phase of a diet very low in carbohydrates this is partially (16 %) obtained from glycerol, with the major part derived via gluconeogenesis from proteins of either dietary or tissue origin.12 The energy cost of gluconeogenesis has been confirmed in several studies7 and it has been calculated at ∼ 400 — 600 Kcal / day (due to both endogenous and food source proteins.18 Despite this, there is no direct experimental evidence to support this intriguing hypothesis; on the contrary, a recent study reported that there were no changes in resting energy expenditure after a VLCKD.20 A simpler, perhaps more likely, explanation
for improved weight loss is a possible appetite - suppressant action of ketosis.
For the ad
libitum feeding days, participants were given a monetary allowance ($ 25) to purchase foods and beverages of their choice to consume in the lab on days 5 and 6.
Subjects were offered 2 high - protein (30 % of energy) ad
libitum diets, each
for a 4 - wk period — an LC (4 % carbohydrate) ketogenic diet and an MC (35 % carbohydrate) diet — randomized in a crossover design.
The next stage was the second ad
libitum feeding phase, again
for 4 wk (days 35 — 62), but with subjects switched to the other diet (MC or LC).
