hello

I have read in various places (not just random "diet" plans for "Lose 20 lbs in 1 week" sort of things) that a high protein diet is good for losing weight.

Could anyone enlighten me on the reasons that a good protein intake is conducive to losing weight?

Or is this theory similar to "low carb diet" or "no fat diet" etc etc (all the traditionally hyped up diets for weight loss)

thanks
