The dieters were given food guidelines and had prepared lunches.
" For the LF diet, the aim was to limit total fat intake to 30% of calories, with up to 10% of saturated fat, and no more than 300 mg/day of cholesterol, and to increase dietary fiber. Participants were counseled to consume whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and legumes and to limit their consumption of additional fats, sweets, and high-fat snacks. The MED/LC diet combined the Mediterranean and low-carbohydrate diets described in our previous weight loss trial (the DIRECT trial)[15]. The diet restricted carbohydrate intake to less than 40 g/day in the first two months (induction phase), and thereafter a gradual increase up to 70 g/day, and increased protein and fat intake, according to the MED diet. The MED/LC diet was rich in vegetables and legumes and low in red meat, with poultry and fish replacing beef and lamb. This group was provided 28 g of walnuts/day [160 Kcal/84% fat, mostly PUFA (omega-3 α-linolenic acid)] starting from the third month, after the induction phase."
