“Over 20 randomised controlled studies have now shown that lower-carb diets can lead to two to three times more weight loss than low-fat diets.”
Therefore, Dr Mosley recommended: “Limit your intake of any food or drink containing more than five percent sugar to no more than twice a week.
“This includes sweet fruits like mango and pineapple, and sugary smoothies and juices.
“Likewise, replace processed carbs like white bread, chips and pasta with slow-release energy sources, such as brown rice or quinoa.”
