A Flexible Formula
In a study of four weight loss plans, the number of pounds people were able to shed didn’t differ much -- as long as the diets were fairly low in saturated fat and cholesterol, were high in fiber, reduced people’s calorie intake, and included 90 minutes of weekly exercise. Each diet group also experienced better cholesterol, better blood pressure, and better triglyceride levels -- and metabolic syndrome dropped across the board.
