Successful Weight Loss
A Seminar by Robert Buist

ENTER THE LOW FAT DIETSENTER THE LOW FAT DIETS
1950’s Ancel Keys - recommends low fat diet1977 George McGovern - low fat
dietary goals1984 NIH - fat is a greasy killer
1985 to 2002 Five major studies- fat not linked to heart disease
Profits drive food productionProfits drive food production
We started to eat more starches and refined carbohydrates because these were the cheapest macro nutrients for the food industry to produce with the highest profits
LOW FAT DIETS DIDN’T WORKLOW FAT DIETS DIDN’T WORK
Fat 9 calories /gProtein & Carbs 4 calories /g
Reducing the fat calories didn’t cause weight loss because we ate more carbohydrates (refined grains, flours and corn syrup.
Today we are hungrier than in the 70’s
OBESITY EPIDEMICOBESITY EPIDEMIC
Over 63% Australian men and 47% women are overweight or obese
Aust. Bureau Stats. Nat. Nutr. Survey 1998
Beware low fat foodsBeware low fat foods
Low fat foods contain increased sugar to maintain calories
eg. light beers, yogurts
Failure ofFailure of high carbs / low fathigh carbs / low fat dietsdiets
Lack of phytonutrients High glycaemic response foods Elevated triglycerides The wrong fats Exaggerated insulin response
Importance of insulin controlImportance of insulin control
High GI carbohydrates Í High insulin Í Glucose stored as fat ( Obesity ) Í Insulin resistance ( Syndrome X ) Í Higher insulin levels Easier to store fat Harder to lose weight
VISCERAL OBESITY andVISCERAL OBESITY and SYNDROME X SYNDROME X
Increased waist - hip ratio Abnormal glucose tolerance Insulin resistance Hypertension Hyperlipidaemia Chronic stress / Cushings Syndrome
Insensitivity may be protectiveInsensitivity may be protective
“Insulin resistance may actually be an adaptation to make it harder for the body to store fat as the body becomes more obese”
WHY ARE YOU STILL HUNGRY WHY ARE YOU STILL HUNGRY AFTER A FULL MEAL AFTER A FULL MEAL
High GI carbs cause an insulin spike
Blood glucose drops below pre-meal levels
High insulin prevents fat burning Low blood sugar causes craving
Health ramifications of the GIHealth ramifications of the GI
“The GI concept implies that the primary cause of Syndrome X, Heart Disease, Type 2 diabetes and Obesity is the long term damage caused by repeated surges of insulin that come from eating high GI starches and sugars”
The Glycaemic Index (GI)The Glycaemic Index (GI)
Describes the ability of carbohydrate in food to raise BLOOD GLUCOSE levels.
Glucose GI 100
High GI > 70
Medium GI 56 - 69
Low GI < 55
FACTORS AFFECTING GIFACTORS AFFECTING GI
Starch gelatinisation (heating bursts grains)
Fibrous coat / milling ( starch exposure)
Amylose / amylopectun (enzyme access)
Fibre viscosity (eg. legumes, apples, oats)
Acidity (eg. grapefruit, lemons, salad dressing)
Fat influence (reduces total meal GI)
CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF STARCHCHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF STARCH

The Role of FibreThe Role of Fibre
SOLUBLE FIBRE is viscous, slows down digestion and harder for enzymes to attack e.g. apples, oats, legumes
INSOLUBLE FIBRE is not viscous, doesn’t slow digestion but can delay access to enzymes and water to starch unless refined, then it doesn’t work.
Olive oil and vinegarOlive oil and vinegar
A side salad with a high GI meal lowers blood glucose and insulin response

….must have low GI
(because carbohydrates eaten alone
have a stronger effect on blood
sugar)
GI also applies to DiabeticsGI also applies to Diabetics
Sugar doesn’t cause diabetes Sugar is not contraindicated (but also not recommended)
The glycaemic response of the
whole meal is what counts
Glycaemic Load (GL)Glycaemic Load (GL)
GL= (GI x amount carbs/serve) /100 GL(pumpkin) = (75 x 4)/ 100 = 3
Carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, peas, onions, plums, cherries and salad vegetables contain little carbohydrates but plenty of phytonutrients. Eat freely.
LOW GI LUNCHESLOW GI LUNCHES
Fish, lean meats, chicken, eggs (0) Sushi (48), stuffed vine leaves (30) Thai noodles with vegetables (40), Torilla with beans and tomato (39), Ravioli (39), tabbouli (30), lentils &
rice (24), pasta marinara (40), dhal (40), most noodle soups.
GI of MIXED MEALSGI of MIXED MEALS
Adding a low GI food e.g. lentils (dahl) GI 30, to rice GI 80, will lower the glycaemic effect of rice
(50% x 30) + (50% x 80) = 55.
(Protein and fat also delay stomach emptying)
A meal with a very low GIA meal with a very low GI
Example: beans
lamb rice olive oil stringy vegetables
Our Ancestors - Hunters/ GatherersOur Ancestors - Hunters/ Gatherers
Ate more protein - small birds, fish, animals, shellfish, organs
Ate less carbohydrate - fruit & vegetables, herbs, seeds, roots, berries
Fat the same but different composition - more omega-3’s
No cereals until 10,000 years ago
High Fat, High Protein DietsHigh Fat, High Protein Diets
Dr Atkins Diet Revolution (1972)
Insulin was so low that muscles and tissues burned fat for energy, i.e. a ketogenic diet
KETOSIS KETOSIS verses verses KETOACIDOSISKETOACIDOSIS
DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS:blood glucose high, osmotic diuresis, NO INSULIN, increased respiration, vomiting, dehydration, electrolyte loss and hypotensive shock.
MILD KETOSIS:Blood glucose low, no diuresis, no vomiting, no increased respiration as insulin still present but controlled. Acidosis is usually asymptomatic.
Effect of Ketogenic DietEffect of Ketogenic Diet
Reduces insulin levels Reduces glycogen stores Blocks glucose to fat Burns body fat Decreases addictive cravings
The Role of Glucagon The Role of Glucagon
As insulin and glucose drops, glucagon causes glycogen breakdown…
LIPOLYSIS in adipose tissue Ketogenesis Glycogenolysis
Initial Wt Loss on Ketogenic DietInitial Wt Loss on Ketogenic Diet
Depletion of 500g glycogen (total body
reserves) leads to 2.0 kg water loss 1g carbohydrate binds 4g water (muscle
and liver glycogen)
Ketogenic DietsKetogenic Diets
constipation due to lack of fibre increase oxidized lipids (LDL) due to
lack of phytonutrient antioxidants extra load on kidneys and liver mental judgment impaired on ketones
compared to glucose strenuous exercise difficult without
glycogen stores
Almost universally effective in weight loss but have the following problems:

but Insulin index is 3x higher
...possibly because milk proteins are insulinogenic (anabolic) - drives glucose, fatty acids and amino acids into cells for growth
A Safer Ketogenic DietA Safer Ketogenic Diet
Carbo’s low GI and high phytonutrients
Safety depends on phyto-
nutrients, minerals
Protein trimmed of cutaneous fat
Fats mono and omega-3
FAILURE TO DISTINGUISH FAILURE TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN FATSBETWEEN FATS
Margarine (trans isomers)Polyunsaturated (lowered immune function)
Saturated fats (elevate HDL but contain oxidised cholesterol)
Monounsaturated (more stable, marbled fat, less unsaturation
Omega-3 oils (decreased inflammation, cardiovascular risk
FISH OILS IN WEIGHT LOSSFISH OILS IN WEIGHT LOSS
Omega-3 oils enrich membrane phospholipids with EPA and improve insulin sensitivity and glucose control
FISH PROTECTS KIDNEYSFISH PROTECTS KIDNEYS

WARNINGWARNING
High fat and high protein have been associated with insulin resistance.
Hence carbohydrate handling ability is decreased.
