The Effects of the Mediterranean Diet vs. a Low Carbohydrate Diet on C- Reactive Protein Levels

A whey-supplemented, high-protein diet versus a high-carbohydrate diet: effects on endurance cycling performance.

This study compared a training diet recommended for endurance athletes (H-CHO) with an isoenergetic high protein (whey supplemented), moderate carbohydrate (H-Pro) diet on endurance cycling performance. Over two separate 7-d periods subjects (n = 7) ingested either H-CHO (7.9 +/- 1.9 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) carbohydrate; 1.2 +/- 0.3 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) fat; 1.3 +/- 0.4 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) protein) or ...
