First Law of Thermodynamics Energy can neither be created or destroyed
Calorie intake Calorie expenditure - Calories stored (change in adiposity) =

• 21 obese young adults, studied for 7 months
• 10 to 15% weight loss on a standard low calorie diet
• Then studied during weight maintenance on each of three test diets with the same calories: - Low fat (60% carbohydrate, 20% fat, 20% protein) - Low glycemic index (40% carbohydrate, 40% fat, 20% protein) - Atkins very low carb (10% carbohydrate, 60% fat, 30% protein)

Long-term effects of macronutrients on body weight

Methods
• 811 overweight/obese adults, studied for 2 years
• Assigned to 4 diets designed to differ in macronutrients - Carbohydrate: 35 – 65% - Fat: 20 – 40% - Protein: 15 – 25%
• Intervention: individual and group behavioral counseling
Results
• No difference in body weight according to diet group

Behavioral Diet Studies Characteristically little weight difference between diets
Sacks. NEJM 2009, 360:859-73
POUNDS LOST Study Major Limitation: Did not achieve targeted dietary goals
• Reported maximum differences in intakes less than half intended: - Fat intake range: 9% absolute difference - Protein intake range: 5% absolute difference
• Even these relatively small differences may be overestimated, due to social-desirability bias inherent to self reporting
• Biomarkers demonstrated poor compliance at 2 years: - No difference in triglycerides (marker of carbohydrate intake) - Nonsignificant difference in N2 excretion (protein intake) - RQ differed only slightly throughout study among diets (.81-.84)

DIRECT Study
Shai. NEJM 2008, 359:229-41
Methods
• 322 obese adults, studied for 2 years
• Assigned to 3 diets designed to differ in macronutrients - Low fat, calorie-restricted - Mediterranean, calorie-restricted - Low carbohydrate, not calorie-restricted
• Intervention based at a work site, with partial food provision
• Completion rates approaching 90%

Summary & Conclusions
1. The conventional approach to weight loss, the calorie-restricted diet, has poor efficacy in an environment with unlimited calorie availability
2. An alternative approach aims to reduce anabolic drive, leading to reduced adiposity with ad libitum conditions
3. Reduced anabolic drive may be achieved by lowering carbohydrate amount and/or glycemic index, and other qualitative changes in diet
4. Findings from behavioral RCTs must be interpreted cautiously, as they often fail to achieve significant changes in dietary intakes
5. Future research is needed to compare strategies to improve dietary composition vs. reduce calorie intake in the treatment of obesity

Closing Thought These ideas may be provocative, but they aren’t new
The editors of a leading medical journal wrote:
“When we read that ‘the fat woman has the remedy in her own hands – or rather between her own teeth’ . . . there is an implication that obesity is usually merely the result of unsatisfactory dietary bookkeeping. . . [Although logic suggests that body fat] may be decreased by altering the balance sheet through diminished intake, or increased output, or both . . . [t]he problem is not really so simple and uncomplicated as it is pictured.” JAMA 1924, 83(13):1003
