Purpose
The purpose of this study is to determine whether subjects following a high protein diet will gain less in weight after smoking cessation compared to subjects following a low fat diet due to the effects of dietary protein on resting metabolic rate and hunger.

|
Other: The high protein diet group and the low fat diet group
The high protein diet (25 energy percent from protein, 55 energy percent from fat, 20 energy percent from carbohydrate) and the low fat diet (30 energy percent from fat, 20 energy percent from protein, 50 energy percent from carbohydrate)

Active Comparator: The Low Fat Diet Group
The low fat diet (30 energy percent from fat, 20 energy percent from protein, 50 energy percent from carbohydrate)
|
Other: The high protein diet group and the low fat diet group
The high protein diet (25 energy percent from protein, 55 energy percent from fat, 20 energy percent from carbohydrate) and the low fat diet (30 energy percent from fat, 20 energy percent from protein, 50 energy percent from carbohydrate)

Detailed Description:
Sustained smoking cessation is one of the most effective therapies to avoid premature morbidity and mortality. However, weight gain associated with nicotine withdrawal may attenuate some of the beneficial health effects and is cited as a major obstacle to quit smoking. The mechanism for the weight gain is not elucidated but reduced resting metabolic rate, reduced total energy expenditure, increased caloric intake and changes in fat metabolism may be involved. Elucidating effective strategies to prevent or reduce post-cessation weight gain may improve health outcomes of smoking cessation.
