Are you on a diet? Do you have a valid reason for it? Read 3 reasons that nutritionists have uncovered and found that diets often miss the point ...
1. Diets do not help with weight loss
The idea that you will lose weight with a diet in the long run is not true. Moreover! Such diets very often end in illness, and the excess weight is often regained as soon as we stop following the diet. But the result is not just regained weight, but also 85% of people get seriously ill.
Furthermore ...
The more attractive a diet may seem to you, the more severe the side effects are.
A very common characteristic of diets is that they slow down metabolism, converting simple carbohydrates that most likely cause weight gain into complex ones, making it appear that the body is losing weight.
However, we must consider one more thing ... No diet is designed for eating less and changing eating habits. They are all designed very consumeristically. Excess weight is only associated with more movement and more accurately measured and selected food.
2. Every diet is followed by fatigue, often even constant fatigue
If the body is accustomed to lavish meals today, it is not the case during diets. That's why every weight loss diet is followed by a phase of fatigue, which can become prolonged. If it is short-term fatigue, you can quickly resolve the situation by increasing the intake of quality energy, but in case of prolonged fatigue (a few days or even weeks), be very careful because this can be a precursor to more complex complications that result in hospitalization in 15% of cases.
Additionally, short-term fatigue is even desirable, provided that it quickly disappears (in a few hours) and can be alleviated with water, a drink rich in electrolytes, and half an hour's rest. Short-term fatigue usually occurs after more physical activity, so make sure you get enough of it (even 20 minutes of walking a day is sufficient, but the ideal is a combination of walking and exercise/hard work).
3. Weight loss does not make you healthier
If you are losing more than 10% of your initial weight per month, then stop immediately. Excessive weight loss is linked to metabolism, as well as joints. Dietary restrictions require changes in body function, which is not good. That's why you should never start a weight loss diet in the middle of the year when healthy food is abundant. Start losing weight about a month before the end of winter (now is the right time) and after a few weeks, interrupt the diet to see how it affects your well-being.
It is crucial to know that you will not become healthier with any diet!
Weight loss diets do not strengthen health, nor the immune system.
