Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protein-sparing helps you to lose weight because it makes fat the primary source of energy for your body, rather than carbohydrates. When your body can’t derive energy from the carbohydrates you eat, it will turn your body fat into energy. This is also known as ketosis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Acid secretion is initiated by food: the thought, smell, or taste of food effects vagal stimulation of the gastrin-secreting G cells located in the distal one third (antrum) of the stomach. The arrival of protein to the stomach further stimulates gastrin output.

Detailed explanation-3: -More common causes of hypergastrinemia include gastric outlet obstruction, ileus and chronic renal failure. In most cases, proton pump inhibitors will be used to manage the condition. In some instances, surgical therapy may be required.

Detailed explanation-4: -A healthy diet throughout life promotes healthy pregnancy outcomes, supports normal growth, development and ageing, helps to maintain a healthy body weight, and reduces the risk of chronic disease leading to overall health and well-being.
