Why the study?
Does a very-low-fat, energy-restricted diet reduce C-reactive protein concentrations in healthy, obese women?
Does a very-low-fat, energy-restricted diet reduce C-reactive protein concentrations in healthy, obese women?
Energy restriction and weight loss on a very-low-fat diet significantly reduce CRP concentrations in healthy obese women, suggesting a reduction in low-grade systemic inflammation.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports weight loss reducing CRP in obese women; leaves open whether very-low-fat composition adds benefit beyond restriction.
Heilbronn et al. (2001) studied this question.
