Image/Taken from the website of choosemyplate.gov, USDA, it is easy to get fat due to unbalanced diet. My plate is so balanced.
Common weight loss misunderstandings include not eating starch, not eating meat, eating only fruits and vegetables, and eating very little. These are considered to be an unbalanced diet. Imbalance not only affects health, but also has a negative impact on slimming, which is easy to cause weight gain, but will fall short. However, how to eat is balanced? How do you know that you are eating unevenly?
Nutritionist Zhang Peirong said that the United States promoted "My Plate", divided a large plate into four parts, added a cup, and emphasized the "proportion" of various foods. As long as you eat according to this ratio, you will know that the nutrition of each meal is enough!
Eat only vegetables and fruits. Be careful of rough skin and decreased immunity.
If you only eat fruits and vegetables for three meals, you can only eat half of the plate, and you will lose whole grains, roots and protein foods. Protein is the basic raw material of cells, the foundation of human growth and development, the renewal and repair of tissues and cells, and the component of many enzymes, hormones and antibodies in the body.
Long-term lack of protein will cause hair loss, rough skin, muscle loss, difficult wound healing and decreased immunity. Moreover, if you don't eat protein food, you will consume muscle instead of fat, and your metabolism will become slower and slower, forming a vicious circle and getting fat easily.
Eating too little for three meals eventually leads to overeating.
In addition, although losing weight must be "less calories", and eating less and eating more meals can really achieve this condition, it can't last long.
Nutritionist Zhang Peirong said that on the one hand, the human body will be mentally and physically unbearable because of insufficient calories and nutrition; On the other hand, when the body finds that the intake of calories is getting less and less, it will start to accumulate energy and its metabolism will drop sharply. In the later stage, it will become more and more difficult to lose weight. Finally, I couldn't help but start overeating and regain my weight!
