On 7/11/19 at 6:30 PM EDTCutting back on the calorie equivalent of six Oreo cookies per day could lower a person's risk of developing conditions like heart disease, according to researchers.
During the first six months of the trial, the participants went to weekly counseling sessions. Meanwhile, a control group of 75 continued their diet as normal, and visited researchers once every six months. The participants wrote down how much they ate in food diaries. "These findings suggest the potential for a substantial advantage for cardiovascular health of practicing moderate calorie restriction in young and middle-aged healthy individuals, and they offer promise for pronounced long-term population health benefits," the authors wrote.
Co-author Carl Pieper, associate professor of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics at the Duke University School of Medicine, told:"To our knowledge, this is also one of first studies to study the effects of caloric restriction in people who are already at a healthy weight. Dr. William E. Kraus, lead author of the study and a cardiologist and distinguished professor of medicine at Duke University Medical Center, commented in a statement:"There's something about caloric restriction, some mechanism we don't yet understand that results in these improvements. We have collected blood, muscle and other samples from these participants and will continue to explore what this metabolic signal or magic molecule might be.
