Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Energy restriction
Energy restriction (-500 kcal/day) (N=40), where participants will receive dietary counseling to reduce energy intake to achieve 500 kcal/day deficits to support weight loss. Participants will also be asked to avoid all nuts during the intervention period.
Energy restriction
Energy restriction with almonds
Energy restriction (-500 kcal/day) with dry-roasted, lightly salted almonds supplying 15% of estimated energy requirement. Participants will receive dietary counseling to reduce energy intake to achieve 500 kcal/day deficits. Energy from almonds will be accounted for during dietary modeling so that a 500 kcal/day deficit is achieved.
