Finally, a diet plan to help you lose extra pounds is here. Consuming more of proteins and less of refined carbohydrates can help in weight loss, according to a recent study led by Dr. Thomas Meinert Larsen of the University of Copenhagen.
Experts advise eating more of low-glycemic index(GI) carbohydrates like whole-grain breads to lose weight.
Glycemic index is an indicator of the rise in blood glucose levels after the consumption of a particular food.
Low-glycemic index carbohydrates diets produce "possibly a stronger satiating effect and more balanced blood sugar regulation," Larsen hypothesized.
938 people studied
