简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of change in diet quality (carbohydrate restriction versus fat restriction) on body composition, fat distribution, cardiometabolic risk factors, physical function, and quality of life in aging adults with obesity.
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of change in diet quality (carbohydrate restriction versus fat restriction) on body composition, fat distribution, cardiometabolic risk factors, physical function, and quality of life in aging adults with obesity. Data from previous studies support the hypothesis that consumption of lower-CHO, higher-fat food sources rich in high-quality proteins and essential fatty acids, such as whole eggs, has beneficial effects on metabolic health. The study will test the hypothesis that a reduced CHO higher- fat, egg-rich diet induces selective depletion of total and abdominal adiposity, preserves lean mass, and reduces inflammation and oxidative stress. In turn, these favorable changes in body composition, fat distribution, and metabolic health will confer improvements in physical function in obese, aging adults.
Results from this study will form an empirical basis for developing an easily implemented, non-pharmacologic treatment (i.e. change diet quality by incorporating more low carbohydrate, whole foods such as eggs) to prevent or reverse sarcopenia and other age-related diseases of metabolic origins.

研究组 & 干预措施
Egg-based diet (EBD)
This arm will provide ≤25% energy from CHO, 25% energy from protein, and ≥50% energy from fat. EBD participants will be asked to consume ≥2 eggs per day along with other protein sources including meat, fish, pork, and poultry. Carbohydrate (CHO) sources will be primarily derived from leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables and CHO intake will be equally distributed across meals throughout the day.
干预措施: Egg-based diet (EBD) (Other)
Carbohydrate-based diet (CBD)
The CBD group will be asked to avoid whole egg consumption when possible during the 8 week intervention period. They will be counseled to consume a low fat diet with 55:25:20 %energy from CHO:protein:fat. This diet will place an emphasis on consuming lean meats, low fat dairy, whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables.
