Results of a new study indicate that following a low fat diet can put you in a better mood than following one low in carbs
Boston (DbTechNo) - Results of a new study indicate that following a low fat diet can put you in a better mood than following one low in carbs.

This maybe just the news that many a husband has been waiting to hear… All joking aside this is a very interesting study finding.

Researchers analyzed 106 obese or obese adults from the country of Australia, dividing them into 2 groups.

The first group followed a low fat diet for a year, the other followed a low carb diet for a year.

Results of the study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, showed that while the moods of dieters were shown to be better while following both diet plans, those following a diet low in fat were found to be in a better mood longer than those participants following the low carb approach.

When it came to losing weight, both groups lost approximately the same amount on average.

    There are plenty of healthy options in food out there !

    1. Swine flu crisis might be a wake-up call against global warming, meat consumption and unclean environment.

    2. It looks almost certain the historic health care bill, or renewed American dream will come to pass as the best Christmas gift ever toward the end of this year.

    3. It is widely known that Obesity is epicenter of many different kinds of chronic diseases, as such, the implication of taking it under control can stretch to far more coverage for the uninsured and financial health across the spectrum.

    (( Costs of Preventable Chronic Disease account for around 75% of the nation’s $2.4 trillion medical care costs. U.S. health care spending is also expected to double in the next 10 years. and they are largely preventable — 80 percent of the risk factors are behavior-related. ))

    Now that modern society has been automated in many ways, overnutrition tends to play a devastating role in our health, and the food that stays long in the body looks more likely to become a source where germs, bacterias, viruses and more multiply, even causing cancer and the like.

    4. The loss driven by meat consumption seems to outweigh the gain from the fast food and meat industry.
