How to preserve bone and mass on a low calorie diet.
Resistance training even just three times a week can prevent more than 90 percent of lean body mass loss during calorie restriction. Lose weight through calorie restriction alone, and you experience a decline in bone mineral density in fracture risk sites. In the same study, though, those randomized to lose weight with exercise didn’t suffer any bone loss. The benefits of calorie restriction revealed by the study—improved blood pressure, improved cholesterol, improved mood, improved libido, improved sleep—would seem to far outweigh any potential risks.
