Low-carbohydrate diets or low-carb diets are defined as
a dietary programs that reduce the consumption of carbohydrate for
weight control or for the treatment of obesity.
High-carbohydrate diet
is the maximun intake of carbohydrate dietary programs. Some experts
indicated that the program also promotes weight loss and reduce the risk
of obesity(a)
There is always a concern that very-low-carbohydrate
diets is the potential for increased risk of renal disease associated
with a higher protein intake. In the assessment of renal function in 68
men and women with abdominal obesity (age 51.5+/-7.7 years, body mass
index [calculated as kg/m(2)] 33.6+/-4.0) without preexisting renal
dysfunction who were randomized to consume either an energy-restricted (
approximately 1,433 to 1,672 kcal/day), planned isocaloric
very-low-carbohydrate (4% total energy as carbohydrate [14 g], 35%
protein [124 g], 61% fat [99 g]), or high-carbohydrate diet (46% total
energy as carbohydrate [162 g], 24% protein [85 g], 30% fat [49 g]) for 1
year. Body weight, serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration
rate and urinary albumin excretion were assessed before and after 1 year
, conducted by Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research
Organisation(1), showed that long-term weight loss with a
very-low-carbohydrate diet does not adversely affect renal function
compared with a high-carbohydrate diet in obese individuals with normal
renal function.
