What happened to losing weight? Why eat less and exercise more, but don't lose weight?
When we eat little or less food, the basic nutrition of the body will be lacking, and the body will reduce metabolism to protect the body and internal organs from damage.
Humans are born with a gene, which makes human beings more suitable for survival in the process of evolution. This gene stores energy in peacetime, and when food is in short supply, it can rely on the stored energy to maintain life.
The easiest energy to hoard is sugar and fat, and sugar is mainly hidden in our liver (liver sugar), which can only last for 3-4 hours. So fat has become the best way to store energy for a long time. Some people get fatter when they eat less, because this gene has memory. Today, this gene seems unnecessary, but this primitive gene will not disappear because of it. It is this gene that makes our obesity rate rise endlessly.
Therefore, it is very undesirable to lose weight by dieting or fasting. Drugs or dieting can lead to:
1, malnutrition, reduced metabolic rate, leading to anemia, decreased immunity, inattention, loose skin, dull and so on.
2, easy to lead to anorexia, serious life-threatening.
3, easy to rebound. Once you stop dieting, hungry cells will selectively absorb energy and accumulate fat, which will aggravate obesity.
4, drug weight loss "is a drug three-point poison", often taking diet pills will bring serious harm to people's liver, kidney, heart and other organs, but also produce drug antibodies, reduce the success rate of weight loss, and waste money.
Losing weight is not equal to losing weight. Don't blindly apply other people's diet, because a diet suitable for others may not be suitable for you. If there is really one of the most effective ways to lose weight in the world, why are there so many obese people? And the number of obese people is increasing? Weight loss must be carried out reasonably under the guidance of experts. Dieting can certainly lose weight, but it can't. The real way to lose weight is to be safe and not rebound. Losing weight is a systematic project, including body conditioning, fat decomposition, detoxification and so on. At the same time, we must tighten loose skin, consolidate the results of weight loss, and not rebound, which is the successful weight loss.
