1, the harm of not eating staple food
Nowadays, many people choose to eat less carbohydrates instead of staple food to lose weight, just to lose weight quickly. However, you should know that if you don't eat fat for a day, although you can lose weight obviously in a short time by temporarily reducing carbohydrate intake, it is because the body consumes glycogen and a lot of water during the first 4-7 days of dieting, and less fat is really lost. This is just a false slimming caused by water loss. And it is easier to evolve into a body that is easy to gain weight. Once the normal diet is restored, the glycogen reserve will be restored immediately, and the corresponding water supplement will lead to weight gain again. Moreover, people may not realize that when we lose our staple food, we also lose our health.
Carbohydrate is one of the three essential functional nutrients for human body. If you don't eat it for a long time, it will lead to insufficient nutrition, muscle fatigue and lack of motivation. Not only that, if the body's heat supply is insufficient, it will be solved by tissue protein and fat, and the decomposition and consumption of tissue protein will affect organ function; Oxidation of a large number of fatty acids can also produce ketone bodies, leading to ketosis and even ketoacidosis. If the diet is short of staple food for a long time, it will also lead to the decrease of blood sugar content, dizziness, palpitation, brain dysfunction and other problems, which will lead to hypoglycemia and coma in severe cases.
The latest research by American nutritionists shows that people who eat less staple food will have higher bad cholesterol and a greater risk of heart disease. Another study in the United States also shows that if you don't eat bread, noodles, potatoes and other staple foods for a week, your brain's memory and cognitive ability will be damaged.

The staple food is still light. Now people are well-off, and rice and steamed bread, which were once essential for every meal, are left out by many people, as if the staple food can't show the quality of life without adding some flavor. So the staple food in the restaurant is shortbread, shredded pork noodles, steamed buns and fried steamed buns, while at home, we eat shortbread, fried rice and meat dumplings. But have you ever thought that these "fancy" staple foods add a lot of salt and oil, and eating too much is harmful to health. Eating two or two salty staple foods at a meal is equivalent to eating 2 grams of salt. Steamed buns, pies and jiaozi all have meat stuffing, and the fat content is above 30%. Fried rice is covered with a layer of oil, often accompanied by high-fat ingredients such as eggs and diced ham. Therefore, although the "fancy" staple food is delicious, it is like a sugar-coated cannonball, which has many potential hazards.

Although it is important to have a perfect body, it is especially important to have a healthy body. In fact, there are many healthy ways to lose weight.
