2001 JUN 14 - (NewsRx Network) -- A diet of low energy-density foods can help reduce calorie consumption, according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

The current epidemic of obesity in the United States has encouraged the development of new weight loss strategies. The amount of calories that a person eats is affected not only by the amount of fat contained in a meal, but also by its energy density, which is based on the amount of water, air, and fruits and vegetables incorporated into it.

In a study of 19 lean and 17 obese women, Elizabeth Bell and Barbara Rolls, of Pennsylvania State University, manipulated both the fat content and the energy density of various foods by adding water and low-fiber fruits and ...
