Summary

Study hypothesis: High protein diets have been shown to make people full and and help to retent of muscle mass. This study was designed to determine effects of a protein- enriched meal replacement (MR) on weight loss and muscle mass retention by comparison to an equal calorie carbohydrate-enriched MR.

Methods: Single blind, placebo-controlled, randomized outpatient weight loss trial in 100 obese men and women comparing two equal calorie meal plans.,1) 2.2 g protein/kg of LBM per day \[high protein diet (HP)\] or 2) 1.1 g protein/kg LBM/day standard protein diet (SP). Body weight, body composition, and lipid profiles were measured at baseline and 12 weeks.
