Myth 1: Eating spicy food can reduce weight.

The effect of eating spicy food is not as great as imagined. Eating more spicy food will have an impact on gastrointestinal function, increase the stimulation of gastric mucosa, and easily cause gastric bleeding. Moreover, eating too much irritating food will make the skin rough and prone to acne, which is definitely not worth the candle.

Myth 2: Eating more low-fat foods is not easy to gain weight.

Associate Professor Moore of Boston University School of Medicine reported at the 44th Annual Meeting of the American Heart Association on Epidemiology and Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases that teenagers who rarely eat dairy products, high-fat or low-fat diets are more likely to be obese than those who eat medium-fat diets. In the process of slimming, fat does not always play a negative role.

Edible fat can not only be quickly converted into fat and stored in the body, but also the decomposition of fat can inhibit the synthesis of fat in the body to some extent. The best diet recommended by the American Heart Association includes moderate fat and more fruits, vegetables and dairy products.

Myth 3: You can lose weight by eating fruit meals continuously.

Although fruit is rich in vitamins and carbohydrates, it has endless benefits, but its nutritional components are relatively simple, especially the essential unsaturated fatty acids and protein. Long-term single fruit slimming will inevitably lead to the loss of nutrients such as protein and minerals in the body. Slowly, the body will issue a danger alarm.

A single diet, like fruit slimming, will reduce the intake of many nutrients. Over time, the lack of comprehensive and balanced nutrition in the body is harmful.

Misunderstanding of exercise to lose weight

Myth 1: The greater the intensity of exercise, the better the effect.

The movement of thin people should follow the principle of gradual progress, which varies from person to person. Different people, that is, different objects and obesity are treated differently, and targeted physical exercise is taken.

Step by step, that is, the principle of gradually increasing exercise load, only a certain intensity of stimulation can change the adaptability of the body. Too little exercise has no exercise effect, but too much exercise will cause damage to physical function.

Don't take the method of "overeating" in physical exercise, suddenly increase the amount of exercise or suddenly interrupt the practice. Only by mastering the principle of gradual progress and varying from person to person can we achieve the best results in the shortest time.

Myth 2: You can lose weight by jogging for 30 minutes at a time.

It is unscientific to lose weight like this. Practice has proved that only when the exercise lasts for more than 40 minutes can the body's fat be mobilized to supply energy with glycogen. With the extension of exercise time, the amount of fat energy supply can reach 85% of the total consumption. It can be seen that there is no obvious fat consumption in exercise shorter than 40 minutes, regardless of the intensity.

Myth 3: Take more exercise and eat too much food.

This practice can only be done occasionally. Facts have proved that people who feel that they eat too much and exercise too much can only gain weight in the end. If a habit is formed, the result can only be harmful. If you often use prolonged exercise as an excuse for overeating, you have actually put yourself in an overtraining situation, so your body has no time to recover from overtraining fatigue.

People who often overeat in one meal should slightly increase their intensity in the next aerobic training or reduce their calorie intake in the next meal.

Some obese patients are eager to lose weight, and always hope to reduce their weight to a normal level in a short time through diet pills, preferably losing twenty or thirty kilograms a month. As we all know, fast weight loss is harmful, which not only makes it difficult to maintain the weight loss results, but also has a very high rebound rate, which is easy to lead to serious overdraft, malnutrition and various sudden diseases. Step by step, on the basis of diet control and reasonable exercise, and according to the doctor's advice, the slimming method is feasible.
