Resumo

O consumo da dieta da “moda”ow Carb High fat High Protein’ (LCHFHP) está cada vez mais frequente na atualidade por ocasionar erda de peso mais rápida e consequente melhoria na qualidade de vida. A presente revisão integrativa visa identificar as implicações metabólicas, clínicas e nutricionais relacionadas ao consumo de dietas Low Carb High fat High Protein. A pesquisa bibliográfica foi realizada através de buscas nas bases de dados eletrônicas Pubmed Central e Elsevier, no período de 2006 a 2018, com a utilização dos seguintes descritores: “carbohydrate; dietary carbohydrates; diet, low carbohydrate; diet, carbohydrate-restricted; ketosis; diabetes; motor active; obesity; cardiovascular disease; protein; physical activite.” Inicialmente foram encontrados 68.219 artigos. Desses, 40 foram pré-selecionados cumprindo critérios de inclusão. Porém, dentre estes 40, 28 estavam dentro do perfil do estudo. A maioria dos estudos embora demonstrando efeitos positivos com o consumo de dieta LCHFHP, ao curto prazo, quanto à perda de peso, redução no percentual de gordura corporal, melhora da sensibilidade à insulina e no controle glicêmico e redução na utilização de medicações, mostraram que nem sempre esses efeitos foram atribuídos à redução de carboidratos na dieta. Além desses benefícios não terem sido evidenciados ao longo prazo, observou-se aumento nos níveis séricos dos biomarcadores inflamatórios, da extensão da aterosclerose e na morbidade e mortalidade cardiovascular. Realizou-se de mais estudos, principalmente ao longo prazo e com amostragem maior, no sentido de melhor averiguar os benefícios ou riscos decorrentes do consumo dessas dietas, bem como mecanismo de ação, principalmente diante das doenças crônicas não transmissíveis.
