Background And Aims: Body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) are commonly used markers of cardiometabolic risk. However, sagittal abdominal diameter (SAD) has been proposed as a possibly more sensitive marker of intra-abdominal obesity. We investigated differences in how SAD, WC, and BMI were correlated with cardiometabolic risk markers.

- New dietary strategies are necessary for effectively treating and preventing overweight and obesity, particularly focusing on reducing appetite.
- This study explored if reducing appetite helps maintain weight loss, involving participants who had lost at least 8% of their weight on a low-energy diet.
- Results showed that both reduced energy intake and self-reported appetite were linked to better weight loss maintenance, indicating that appetite-suppressing foods may be a valuable approach in dietary management.
Scope: Self-reported dietary intake does not represent an objective unbiased assessment. The effect of the new Nordic diet (NND) versus average Danish diet (ADD) on plasma metabolic profiles is investigated to identify biomarkers of compliance and metabolic effects.
Methods And Results: In a 26-week controlled dietary intervention study, 146 subjects followed either NND, a predominantly organic diet high in fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and fish, or ADD, a diet higher in imported and processed foods.
Manipulation of food's macronutrient composition in order to reduce energy content without compromising satiating capacity may be helpful in body weight control. For cheeses, substituting fat with protein may provide such opportunity. We aimed at examining the acute effect of cheeses with different macronutrient compositions on accumulated energy intake and subjective appetite sensation.
