Protein And Bone Loss
Researchers have found that a high-protein, low-fat dairy diet may help prevent bone loss in people trying to lose weight. In a study of 130 middle-aged people, one group ate a high-protein weight loss diet that included cheese, yogurt, and low-fat milk, while the other group ate a high-carbohydrate weight loss diet. At the end of the study, the high-protein diet group had higher bone density than the high-carb diet group.
