Abstract in brief

  • Short-term studies show that higher protein diets can have positive effects on health outcomes like body fat and cardiovascular risk factors, but the long-term impact remains unclear.
  • The meta-analysis of 15 randomized controlled trials found no significant long-term differences between low and high protein diets in weight, blood lipids, blood pressure, or blood sugar levels, though high protein diets improved fasting insulin levels and HDL cholesterol when diabetic subjects were excluded.
  • Overall, the study concludes that high-protein diets do not have clear long-term benefits or harms for obesity, cardiovascular health, or blood sugar control, suggesting it's too early to recommend them specifically for managing overweight or obesity.

Not likely. "According to the present meta-analysis of long-term RCTs, high-protein diets exerted neither specific beneficial nor detrimental effects on outcome markers of obesity, cardiovascular disease or glycemic control." https://t.co/XXUInCZzJB https://t.co/gFcfXalqLv

2013年ウィーン大学研究者による15のランダム化比較試験(RCT)のメタ解析でも、「高たんぱく質ダイエットは長期的に肥満を改善しない」という結果が出ていますね。 https://t.co/vDEcnkiUvu https://t.co/QzUCNu8qlo

たんぱく質はダイエットに不可欠だが、必要以上にとっても痩せるわけではない。 2013年、高たんぱく質ダイエットに関する信頼性の高い15本の論文をまとめて分析した研究では、高たんぱく質ダイエットは長期的に肥満改善の効果は見られない、と結論づけている。 適量が大切。 https://t.co/vDEcnkimFW
