This simple diet change will make you lose TWICE the amount of … – Daily Star

YOU can lose double the amount of weight if you do this.

GETTY

Vegetarians can get a bit of a hard time but they might be onto something.

A new study has confirmed that a vegetarian diet can make you lose twice as much weight as a carnivorous one.

Researchers from the Committee for Responsible Medicine found that not only will it help you lose weight, it will also reduce muscle fat and boost your metabolism.

Lead author, Dr. Hana Kahleov said this finding is particularly important for people with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.

Hana said Vegetarian diets proved to be the most effective diets for weight loss. However, we also showed that a vegetarian diet is much more effective at reducing muscle fat, thus improving metabolism.

This finding is important for people who are trying to lose weight, including those suffering from metabolic syndrome and/or type 2 diabetes. But it is also relevant to anyone who takes their weight management seriously and wants to stay lean and healthy.

The research team studied 74 people with type 2 diabetes who were randomly assigned to either a vegetarian diet or a typical anti-diabetic diet.

The vegetarian diet was more or less vegan as it consisted solely of fruits, vegetables, nuts seeds, grains and legumes and the participants were limited to one portion of low-fat yoghurt per day the only animal product.

Participants on both diets consumed 500 calories less per day than they would if they were to maintain their weight.

Over the course of six months, those on the vegetarian diet lost nearly 1st while those on the other diet lost just half a stone.

The researchers also looked at how the diets affected the fat storage in the participants thighs.

Both diets proved similar in reducing their subcutaneous fat (fat under the skin).

However, subfascial fat (on the surface of the muscles) was only reduced on the vegetarian diet as was intramuscular fat.
