[Treatment of obesity with a high-protein, high-fat, "carbohydrate-free" diet].
Sanatorium treatment for 27 days was carried out for 52 patients with obesity of alimentary metabolism type, consisting of moderate loading and high-protein, high-lipid diet with 2430 to 2840 cal daily, with unusually low carbohydrate contents--10 g for the first week and 38 g--in the fourth. The authors established a favourable total and an average daily body weight loss of the patients, irrespectively of the relatively high caloric intake. No sense of hunger was reported from the majority of the patients. The subjective complaints observed are more frequent and more severe, as compared with the other treatment regimens with reducing but balanced dietetic regimens. The majority of the subjective complaints established could be associated with the objectively confirmed compensated metabolic ketoacidosis. The unfavourable changes in the followed-up laboratory indices are: considerable decrease of blood sugar, massive ketonuria, elevation of serum uric acid and deviations in the acid-base parameters. Serum lipid indices fell under the effect of the treatment and body weight reduction. What impresses is the serum cholesterol reduction in spite of the high exogenic import, the diminution of cholesterol-lecithin index and the marked elevation of free fatty acid in serum, manifestation of incresed lipolysis in the lipid depots. (he diet indicated is not balanced and not physiological. It must be applied casually in obesity treatment. Its application is possible only after a strict assessment of each individual patient with obesity with no accompanying diseases, that do not agree with the partial fasting and cannot be included in intensive motor regimen.
