Following a reduced-calorie Mediterranean diet along with simple exercise helped reduce total fat mass and visceral belly fat — the most dangerous kind, a new study found.
Older people who followed a lower-calorie Mediterranean diet and minimally exercised up to six days a week gained muscle and lost a significant amount of body fat by the end of a year and kept much of it off for three years, according to a new study. “This study demonstrates that a calorie-controlled Mediterranean diet plus exercise does not simply produce weight loss; it results in a redistribution of body composition from fat to muscle,” said Dr.
Generally, the ideal is to lose fat, retain muscle,” said Katz, who led published research on how to use food as preventive medicine. The remaining participants were given general advice during group sessions twice a year and served as the control group for the study.
