Consuming less calories doesn't seem to be a good solution for fat loss. The reason: When you consume less calories, the body slows down metabolism making fat loss that much more difficult. You see, the levels of thyroid hormone, which help support metabolism, drop off when calories decline. But there are some good substances which can support thyroid levels so that burning the calories while dieting is not a headache.
Phosphates, 7-Keto and Guggulsterone are what we are talking about. Phosphates salts of sodium, calcium, potassium keep thyroid levels up while dieting. A study showed that women eating as few as 1,000 calories per day increased their metabolism by 12%-19% when taking a supplement that consisted of sodium phosphate 25mg., potassium phosphate 107 mg., and calcium phosphate 537 mg. 7-Keto which is a precursor to DHEA that supports thyroid levels. A study showed that overweight women taking 200 mg. daily lost more weight than those not taking the supplement. Guggulsterone is a plant derivate common to India that supports thyroid hormones which has been used for hundreds of years in Asia as a weight-loss remedy. It helps burn fat and can help lower cholesterol.
Some people lose more weight on high protein diet than a high carb or high fat diet. It takes energy to digest food. Consuming one gram of protein (5.65 calories) yields only 4.0 calories of energy. One gram of fats (9.4 calories) yields 8.9 calories of energy. One gram of carbohydrates (4.1 calories) yields 4.0 calories of energy. You lose nearly 30% of the energy when consuming protein, but only 7% from fat, and 2% from carbohydrates. This accounts for about half the weight loss difference from people on a high carb vs. low carb diet. The other half is due to water loss in people on a low carb diet.
