Childhood Obesity - Prevention of Diabetes Through Changed Eating Patterns

The main purpose of the present study is to perform a 10 weeks dietary intervention study with a follow-up for 52 weeks in children from 7-14 years of age with overweight or obesity. In a caloric restricted and increased physical activity setting the control group will consume a low-moderate protein (15E%/day) diet whereas the intervention group will consume a higher protein (25E%/day) diet. Secondary, the investigators want to investigate the effect of frequent follow-up after the intervention, and the overall effect of the lifestyle camp. Compared to the low-moderate protein diet, the investigators hypothesis that a diet with higher consumption of protein-containing foods will more effectively induce weight loss (a reduction in BMI-SDS) or weight maintenance in children with overweight or obesity, and improve quality of life, and risk factors for type 2 diabetes.
