減肥必勝食譜：高蛋白質
(法新社)2010年11月25日 星期四 12:05丹麥研究人員找出預防及治療肥胖的致勝食譜：攝取高蛋白質 ，並少吃精緻澱粉如白吐司和白米等。
哥本哈根大學（University of Copenhagen）生命科學院研究人員，拿歐洲官方飲食建議，與近期強調以蛋白質和碳水化合物控制食慾的飲食結構兩相比較，研究人員總結，歐洲官方飲食建議「不足以預防肥胖」。
這分代號為古希臘 哲學家「第歐根尼」（Diogenes）的專案研究，刊載於11月25日的新英格蘭 醫學期刊（New England Journal of Medicine）。第歐根尼崇尚自然的生活方式。
研究報告聲明：「如果想減肥，飲食應該富含高蛋白質、多吃瘦肉、低脂乳製品和豆類，減少攝取精緻澱粉卡路里，如白吐司和精緻白米等。」
報告說：「遵照此種飲食方式，可以吃到飽，不用記算卡路里，不必擔心體重上升問題。」（譯者：中央社陳禹安）

Abstract
Background
Studies of weight-control diets that are high in protein or low in glycemic index have
reached varied conclusions, probably owing to the fact that the studies had insufficient
power.
Methods
We enrolled overweight adults from eight European countries who had lost at least
8% of their initial body weight with a 3.3-MJ (800-kcal) low-calorie diet. Participants
were randomly assigned, in a two-by-two factorial design, to one of five ad libitum
diets to prevent weight regain over a 26-week period: a low-protein and low-glycemicindex
diet, a low-protein and high-glycemic-index diet, a high-protein and lowglycemic-
index diet, a high-protein and high-glycemic-index diet, or a control diet.
Results
A total of 1209 adults were screened (mean age, 41 years; body-mass index [the weight
in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters], 34), of whom 938 entered
the low-calorie-diet phase of the study. A total of 773 participants who completed
that phase were randomly assigned to one of the five maintenance diets; 548 completed
the intervention (71%). Fewer participants in the high-protein and the lowglycemic-
index groups than in the low-protein–high-glycemic-index group dropped
out of the study (26.4% and 25.6%, respectively, vs. 37.4%; P = 0.02 and P = 0.01 for the
respective comparisons). The mean initial weight loss with the low-calorie diet was
11.0 kg. In the analysis of participants who completed the study, only the lowprotein–
high-glycemic-index diet was associated with subsequent significant weight
regain (1.67 kg; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48 to 2.87). In an intention-to-treat
analysis, the weight regain was 0.93 kg less (95% CI, 0.31 to 1.55) in the groups assigned
to a high-protein diet than in those assigned to a low-protein diet (P = 0.003) and
0.95 kg less (95% CI, 0.33 to 1.57) in the groups assigned to a low-glycemic-index
diet than in those assigned to a high-glycemic-index diet (P = 0.003). The analysis
involving participants who completed the intervention produced similar results. The
groups did not differ significantly with respect to diet-related adverse events.
Conclusions
In this large European study, a modest increase in protein content and a modest reduction
in the glycemic index led to an improvement in study completion and maintenance
of weight loss. (Funded by the European Commission; ClinicalTrials.gov
