very much in favor of certain types of
low carb diets, particularly higher
protein, diets with moderate carb restriction... i use

protein for contest prep myself... unfortunately, what pervades much of the
low carb world still today, is this belief that
calories do nt matter or
calories do nt count or what you alluded to, that you can have a
calorie deficit and not lose fat... whats really happening is that
low carb / higher
protein can be a
very good way to automatically control appetite and
calorie intake, and is also often important for some peoples health given their metabolic status (not
very carb tolerant, etc)... its also unfortunate that many in the
low carb community are among the ones to suggest that exercise is a waste of time, etc etc, which is also not true and does great disservice to many who listen...

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.
