“…Furthermore, the literature has shown the benefits of a high protein diet on weight change (Castro et al, ; Soenen et al, ; Wycherley, Moran, Clifton, Noakes, & Brinkworth, ), diet‐induced thermogenesis (Westerterp, ), and a satiating effect, which could be important factors for weight loss and weight management during the postpartum period (Cuenca‐Sánchez, Navas‐Carrillo, & Orenes‐Piñero, ; Pesta & Samuel, ). Moreover, a high protein diet has a lower glycaemic index that seems to be more effective for body weight loss (Horan, McGowan, Gibney, Donnelly, & McAuliffe, ; Radulian, Rusu, Dragomir, & Posea, ); however, this finding is still controversial (Louie, Markovic, Ross, Foote, & Brand‐Miller, ). According to a study conducted by Thomas, Elliott, Fau, Baur, and Baur (), lowering the glycaemic load in the diet appears to be a more effective method of promoting weight loss and improving lipid profiles and can be more easily incorporated into a person's lifestyle when compared with conventional and highly restricted energy and low‐fat diets.…”
