A strictly controlled diet study found that calorie for calorie, dietary fat restriction results in more body fat loss than carbohydrate restriction in people with obesity, at least in the short term. Reduced-carb diet was particularly effective at lowering insulin secretion and increasing fat burning, resulting in significant body fat loss. Fat-restricted diet resulted in a greater imbalance between the fat eaten and fat burned and led to body fat loss at a rate 68 percent higher than cutting the same number of carbohydrate calories. Another national population-based observational study revealed that the dietary pattern characteristic of the southern US (characterized by added fats, fried food, eggs, organ and processed meats, and sugar-sweetened beverages) was associated with greater hazard of acute coronary heart diseases.
