“…It has been suggested previously that a low-fat diet may compromise intakes of tocopherols, which are found in vegetable oils (52,53). In the Nutrition and Breast Health Study, it also was published previously that plasma levels of g-tocopherol (but not a-tocopherol) decreased significantly in both low-fat arms (39).…”

Background: A change in diet is known to affect micronutrient levels in blood but to what extent diet can affect micronutrient levels in the breast is not yet well established. Methods: Healthy, premenopausal women with a family history of breast cancer were randomized across four diet arms for 1 year in a 2 Â 2 factorial design study: control, low-fat, high fruit-vegetable, and combination low-fat/high fruit-vegetable diets. Subjects were asked to collect breast nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) at 0, 6, and 12 months, and levels of micronutrients were measured in the fluid. Results: A total of 122 women were enrolled, 97 were retained for 12 months, and sufficient NAF for analysis was available from 59 women at baseline, 49 at 6 months, and 50 at 12 months. Repeated measures mixed-model ANOVA was used to model the data using cholesterol levels and lactation

“…[71][72][73][74] However, those studies were not included in our systematic review for Ն1 of the following reasons: the design was not a randomized control trial, 72,73 body weight was not a primary outcome, 74 the intensity of intervention varied (ie, very-low-fat diets combined with other intensive lifestyle changes were compared with usual care), 74 or longterm follow-up data were not included. 71 Protein Evidence of long-term effectiveness (Ͼ1 year after treatment) of a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet (also known as a protein-sparing modified fast [PSMF]) is extremely limited.…”

Recommendations for Treatment of Child and Adolescent Overweight and Obesity

In this article, we review evidence about the treatment of obesity that may have applications in primary care, community, and tertiary care settings. We examine current information about eating behaviors, physical activity behaviors, and sedentary behaviors that may affect weight in children and adolescents. We also review studies of multidisciplinary behavior-based obesity treatment programs and information about more aggressive forms of treatment. The writing group has drawn from the available evidence to propose a comprehensive 4-step or stagedcare approach for weight management that includes the following stages: (1) Prevention Plus; (2) structured weight management; (3) comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention; and (4) tertiary care intervention. We suggest that providers encourage healthy behaviors while using techniques to motivate patients and families, and interventions should be tailored to the individual child and family. Although more intense treatment stages will generally occur outside the typical office setting, offices can implement less intense intervention strategies. We not ony address specific patient behavior goals but also encourage practices to modify office systems to streamline office-based care and to prepare to coordinate with professionals and programs outside the office for more intensive interventions.

In practice, however, treatment of childhood obesity is time-consuming, frustrating, difficult, and expensive. In fact, choosing the most effective methods for treating overweight and obesity in children is complex at best. This is especially true for primary care providers, who have limited resources to offer interventions within their offices or programs and few providers to whom they can refer patients.The need for evidence-based treatment recommendations is a critical health care issue, because obese children and adolescents are at risk for developing many of the comorbidities seen in obese adults. Studies demonstrated that fasting serum glucose, insulin, and triglyceride levels and the prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance and systolic hypertension increase significantly as children become obese (BMI of Ն95th percentile). 1 Even children and adolescents who are overweight (BMI of 85th to 94th percentile) are at risk for comorbidities. Therefore, interventions using dietary modifications, increased physical activity, and behavioral therapy may be beneficial for overweight children and adolescents, with more-aggressive intervention directed toward obese children and adolescents. 2 Health care professionals, however, may find it difficult to determine which interventions will be most efficacious for their patients. To date, no clinical trials have determined whether specific dietary modifications alone (ie, without behavioral interven...

“…In this study, the 21 food groups mentioned above were the predictor variables in the RRR, while the RRR response variables were the consumption of carbohydrates and fat (both in grams per day). These response variables were chosen because of their known importance to weight variation 36,37,38 . The RRR procedure calculates X and Y-scores 15 ; in the present analysis, the X-scores were derived from the intakes of each food group (the predictor variables) and the Y-scores were based on the intakes of carbohydrates and fat (the response variables).…”
