Nutritional Epidemiology
Today I'm going to tell you that there are a lot of right ways to eat and a lot of right behaviors to
lose weight. But it depends upon who you are.
A lot of the work in nutrition is epidemiological work.
These types of studies help us by giving us hints that certain things are related,
but these studies do not prove cause and effect.
An important study based on epidemiology is National Weight Control Registry here in the US.
This is a long-term study of people who have lost at least 30 lbs. and kept it off for at least 1 year.
Keep an open mind to what might be of value for you, but don't be too swayed by studies
done on the general population because your body is different.
