Practice Reading: Reading and Writing Fill in the Blanks ID: #31473 High-protein Diet
Instructions
In  our  studies,  those  people  on  a  high-protein  diet  lost  the  same  amount  of  weight  as  those  on  a  higher-carbohydrate  diet,  since  the  two  diets    an  equal  amount  of  kilojoules  and  the  same  amount  of  fat.  However,  body  composition  (that  is,  the  ratio  of  fat  to  muscle)  showed  greater  improvement  among  those  people  on  the  higher-protein  diet.  When  the    in  other  studies  were  allowed  to  eat  until  they  were  no  longer  hungry,  those  on  the  higher-carbohydrate  diet,  even  after  more  than  a  year.  The  reduction  in  hunger  and  the  beneficial  effect  on  muscle  provided  by  the  higher-protein  diet  is  mostly  related  to  its  protein  content,  while  the  reduced  triglyceride  levels  and  enhanced  fat-loss  seem  to  be  related  to  its  lower  amounts  of  carbohydrate.  The  diet  is  healthy  because  its  protein  comes  from  lean  red  meat,  fish,  chicken  and  low-fat  dairy  products,  all  of  which    good  nutrition.  A  high-protein  diet  in  which  the  protein  comes  from  protein  powders  and  supplements  is  unlikely  to  be  healthy  unless  the  supplements  and  are    with  vitamins  and  minerals.
