The participants also followed a diet that slightly increased their protein consumption and reduced their daily intake by 500 calories. After eight weeks, the average weight loss was between eight and nine pounds for both groups. "Previous studies have shown that the dietary intake of calcium [as opposed to supplements] seems to be of most benefit to weight loss," says Judith M. Lukaszuk, assistant professor of nutrition and the director of the didactic program at Northern Illinois University.
