U of I study shows how to lose weight without losing bone
A higher-protein diet that emphasizes lean meats and low-fat dairy foods as sources of protein and calcium can mean weight loss without bone loss–and the evidence is in bone scans taken throughout a new University of Illinois study.
The research, which compared the results of a high-protein, dairy-intensive diet with a conventional weight-loss diet based on […]
