Keto vs. low-fat diets: which is more sustainable in the long term? UPR_Oficial keto highfatdiet lowcarbdiet highcarbdiet lowfatdiet ketogenic ketodiet diet nutrition health
By Dr. Chinta SidharthanMay 24 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study published in the Journal of Food Science and Nutrition Research, researchers investigated whether commercial weight loss diets meet the recommended dietary requirements for essential nutrients and are suitable for long-term use.
While some diets comprise high carbohydrate and low-fat content, others, such as the ketogenic diet, aim at a high fat and low carbohydrate content. However, while almost all of these diets have successfully reduced weight in the short term, whether these diets provide all the essential nutrients necessary for sustained use remains unclear.
Five menus were selected randomly from the manuals for the commercial diet, and the menus contained details on the portion sizes and ingredients for all three meals of the day and snacks. Furthermore, the low carbohydrate content of Diet 2 resulted in a sub-optimal fiber and vitamin B-complex intake, including total folate, niacin, and B1.

Brain signatures for chronic pain identified in a small group of individualsFor the first time, researchers have recorded pain-related data from inside the brain of individuals with chronic pain disorders caused by stroke or amputation (phantom limb pain). A long sought-after goal has been to understand how pain is represented by brain activity and how to modulate that activity to relieve suffering from chronic pain. Data were collected over months while patients were at home, and they were analyzed using machine learning tools. Doing so, the researchers identified an area of the brain associated with chronic pain and objective biomarkers of chronic pain in individual patients. These findings, published in Nature Neuroscience, represent a first step towards developing novel methods for tracking and treating chronic pain.
