Study Notes
Energy Balance and Obesity
- Energy balance refers to the equilibrium between the calories consumed through food and beverages and the calories expended through metabolic processes and physical activity.
- The importance of energy balance:
- Weight management
- Metabolic health
- Physical performance
- Nutrient availability
- Cognitive function
- Hormonal regulation
Obesity Prevention and Management
- Balanced diet
- Active lifestyle
- Family and friend support system
- Policies and regulations
Herbs for Weight Loss
- Cardamom:
- May support weight loss
- Animal study found that cardamom powder reduced belly fat in rats on a high-fat, high-carb diet
- Fenugreek:
- May help control appetite and reduce food intake
- Studies found that fenugreek fiber increased feelings of fullness and reduced hunger and food intake
- Ginger:
- May aid weight loss
- Review of 14 human studies showed that supplementing with ginger decreased body weight and belly fat
- Ginseng:
- May aid weight loss
- Study found that taking Korean ginseng twice daily for eight weeks resulted in quantifiable reductions in body weight
- Turmeric:
- May aid weight loss
- Study found that taking curcumin twice daily for one month was effective in enhancing fat loss and decreasing belly fat
Protein and Weight Loss
- Protein changes the levels of several weight-regulating hormones:
- Increases levels of satiety hormones GLP-1, peptide YY, and cholecystokinin
- Reduces levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin
- Digesting and metabolizing protein burns calories:
- Thermic effect of protein is higher (20-30%) compared to carbs (5-10%) and fat (0-3%)
- Protein burns more calories (increases “calories out”):
- High protein intake tends to boost metabolism and increase calories burned
- Study found that overfeeding with a high protein diet increased calories burned by 260 per day
- Protein reduces appetite (fewer calories):
- High protein intake leads to an automatic reduction in calorie intake
- Study found that protein at 30% of calories caused people to automatically drop their calorie intake by 441 calories per day
- Protein cuts cravings and reduces desire for snacking:
- Study found that protein can have a powerful effect on both cravings and the desire to snack at night
- Protein helps prevent muscle loss and metabolic slowdown:
- Eating plenty of protein can reduce muscle loss, which helps keep metabolic rate higher as you lose body fat
