Abstract
The simple 1:1-replacement of normal fat foods by low fat foods withou t limiting carbohydrate intake led to an average weight loss of 1.5 +/ - 1.4 kg SD in 8 weeks in voluntary normal weight women (BMI less than or equal to 25, n = 19). Fat intake could be decreased from 95.1 +/- 31.6 g/d SD to 62.9 +/- 24.6 g/d SD. 27 % of the saved fat energy was compensated by higher intake of carbohydrates. The obese women (BMI > 25, n = 23) lost an average of 2.9 +/- 1.8 kg SD. Fat intake could be decreased from 107.4 +/- 33.3 g/d SD to 66.3 +/- 21 g/d SD. 12% of the saved fat energy was compensated by higher intake of carbohydrates.
