We are always trying to look and feel better and many of us do that by getting more sleep, cutting down on calories and exercising, whether it be banging the weights at the gym or banging between the sheets. If you are on a calorie-restricted diet you’re on the right track, according to a new study.
Researchers at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rounded up more than 200 healthy women and men between the ages of 20 and 50. All the people involved had a body mass index between 22.0 and 28.0, which is a normal weight or overweight, but not obese.
The scientists led by Corby Martin of Pennington’s Ingestive Behavior Laboratory, broke up the participants of the study into two groups. One group was on a diet that restricted calories by 25 percent, and the other group could eat whatever they wanted, this went on for two years.
After those two years, adults on the calorie-restricted diet had better moods, less stress, better sex drive and sleep, compared to the adults who didn’t cut their calories. The scientists behind this study believe it’s the first to determine whether long-term calorie restriction in normal weighing individuals affects their physical and psychological well being.
The participants in the calorie-restricted group lost an average of 16.8 pounds, and there was little to no weight change in the control group. The calorie restriction goal was 25 percent but fell short at just 11.9 percent, which wasn’t even half of the goal.
One inconsistency in the study was that men in the control group, who consumed more calories, reported higher levels of sexual arousal than the calorie-restricted men. But the overall quality of sex from fantasies, sexual behavior, orgasms and sex drive, the calorie-restricted group scored higher.
