[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 1672158, member: 365308"] Thanks for posting here about the study. Very glad that philanthropists are assisting this important work. I note that the president's doctor is advising a low fat diet following his medical so am glad that we are moving from anecdotal stories about the ketogenic diet and more into garnering evidence to discover more truth. The reason that folks are being asked to lose weight prior to the study is that its purpose is to understand the best way to maintain weight loss; we all know its possible to lose mass in the short term but that most people cannot keep that weight off. Most feeding studies also rely on ensuring compliance though feeding diaries which are notoriously inaccurate so I am glad that these people will be in a more controlled environment. I also note that there is to be an [I]eat what you like of whatever diet you are assigned [/I]to measure impact on appetite hormones etc. thus it may turn out that you can eat chicken wings (though not in bbq sauce) ' until you puke' and still lose weight. That may be because if allowed to eat fat most people probably won't eat chicken wings til they puke unless the wings are slathered in msg and sticky sweet sauces! This is a treatment intervention type study so they are not looking at the root cause of why people get metabolic syndrome which as others hve pointed out is not clear other than it associates with sugar /fructose consumption.
