| Study: Protein Increases Fat
Loss |
| Everyone who works out
understands, or should
understand, the importance of
a diet high in protein
for building
muscle.
What isn’t so obvious,
however, is the
importance of a high-protein diet for
burning fat,
particularly that of the abdominal
variety.
You
see, one of the most
effective dietary weapons in
our fat-fighting arsenal is
something called the
“thermic” response to
food.
What that means is when we
eat, our
bodies burn calories to digest the food. And
more calories
burned can mean more fat
lost.
Recently
researchers from Arizona
State University investigated
the thermic response of a
standard high-carbohydrate
diet (60 percent carbs, 15
percent protein and 25
percent fat) and a higher-protein diet (40
percent protein,
30 percent carbs and 30 percent
fat).
The
thermic effect was
found to be significantly greater
— to
the tune of an extra 58 extra calories
burned after each meal — aong those
on the higher-protein
diet.
