Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the effects of plant-based versus animal-based protein diets on metabolic syndrome (MetS) in overweight adults.
- Sixty-two participants followed different modified DASH diets with varying protein sources and were assessed over phases of weight maintenance, controlled weight loss, and free-living weight loss.
- Results indicated that all diets led to similar weight loss (~5%), which significantly improved MetS criteria, demonstrating that the type of protein consumed was less crucial than the weight loss itself.
