Diet Comparisons: High, Moderate and Low Carbohydrate

While working at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, my supervisor C.J. Segal-Isaacson, asked me to coauthor a paper that compared three different types of diets: High carbohydrate, moderate carbohydrate and low carbohydrate. We chose Dean Ornish’s, “Eat More Weigh Less”, The American Heart Associations “TLC” diet and “Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution”.
While doing the research, we separated the data into these specific categories: Goals, nutrient composition and food consumed. A sample menu for each diet was added for people to be able to see which diet closely mimicked a typical day on their own food plan. I thought you might be interested in the differences between the diets and just where your diet pattern falls within any of the plans. You just may be surprised at the findings.
