Solve 7 misunderstandings about losing weight
"Reasonable diet and more exercise" is the only way to lose weight successfully. People who want to speed up weight loss must control diet and exercise, while those who want to maintain a constitution that is not easy to gain weight should increase muscle mass and improve basal metabolic rate. Text/Wang Shallow summer is here, and the fabrics of clothes are getting less and less, which makes many women who love beauty clamor to lose weight and must wear their bikini back in 2008! However, in the pursuit of the effect of throwing meat, have you used the right method? Xiao Dunren, executive director of Taiwan Province Obesity Medical Association, said that every summer, many people come to the slimming clinic for help. The questions they ask can really be described as "bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new". Some methods really make people "incredible". With the help of idol stars, the "seven myths" of losing weight appeared! Myth 1 can yogurt really lose weight? Crack: Many artists say that they have successfully lost weight with yogurt. According to legend, if you want to lose weight below 3 kg, you must continue to lose weight with yogurt for 3 days, but if you want to lose weight above 5 kg, you must drink yogurt continuously 1 week or more. The doctor said that yogurt has the function of strengthening the stomach and regulating the intestines. For people with constipation habits, it can promote defecation. In addition, from the theoretical point of view of calories, eating nothing a day and drinking only a small amount of low-fat yogurt will really make them lose weight in a short time, but it may lead to malnutrition in the long run. Myth 2: Does diuretics help to lose weight? Solution: Some people will drink slimming tea to lose weight. Xiao Dunren emphasized that prescribing diuretics to obese people is a "cheating" diet, because diuretics can only reduce water in the body, but not body fat. With drugs, patients can drain a lot of water. Of course, they can stand on the weighing machine and lose 2 or 3 kilograms immediately within 1 week, but only drain water. Just like sweating a lot in the oven, as long as you drink water, your weight will rise immediately. The key point is that many people's fat ratio has increased, and they have not really achieved the goal of slimming down. Myth 3: Can you lose weight without breakfast? "Of course, the human body will lose weight if it doesn't eat, but this is unhealthy! Xiao Dunren stressed that every once in a while, there will be women who love beauty and look for him because of such problems. If you don't eat breakfast, the overall calorie absorption will be reduced, but the body has a clever protection mechanism, which will automatically reduce the basal metabolic rate of the human body. When you are hungry, your body will subtly slow down your metabolism to conserve your energy. However, if you can't help but resume eating, your body will accelerate the absorption of nutrients and accumulate fat more easily. As a result, you are hungry, but you can't get the effect. Therefore, don't skip breakfast because you are afraid of being fat, or think that you will lose weight if you eat less than one meal. Misunderstanding 4 Eating meat to lose weight is suitable for everyone? The so-called high-protein diet is to eat a lot of meat to lose weight. Although eating meat to lose weight quickly, it is controversial. Xiao Dunren pointed out that clinically, dieters can only eat fish, meat and oil if they consume less than 30 grams of carbohydrates every day. After eating 1 week, dieters will feel dizzy, depressed, hot and dry, bad breath and uric acid. If you eat it for a long time for a few months, it will be bad for the kidneys, which will easily lead to myocardial infarction and stroke, and will also lead to uremia with renal insufficiency. Most people always like to eat a plate of fruit after meals, especially the seasonal fruits are really delicious. Eating fruit is rich in vitamin C, but you can eat it if you want. There is no time limit. For example, watermelons and cantaloupes, which are abundant recently, are good choices. However, if you like to eat fruits with high sugar content, such as bananas, longan, litchi, persimmons, sugarcane and candied dates, you should pay more attention, because these fruits with high sugar content may be rich in fructose and starch, so if you choose to eat them at night, sugar will accumulate in your body, leading to obesity. People who want to control their body shape and weight should not be careless! Orientals advocate slimming, which makes Taiwan Province Province full of "slimming guides". It's really not an exaggeration. There are also young women with bandages on their fingers, hoping to lose weight. Later, it came from Japan, and wearing a small ring can have the same effect. Xiao Dunren said that this method claims that thumb to little finger is the epitome of body parts. As long as the tape is wrapped around a specific place according to the corresponding part of the body, you can easily lose weight. From the point of view of western medicine, it is simply nonsense. The tape on your hand can only remind you of your weight loss plan at best. A few days ago, the Korean variety show released the diet of the Korean group Secret, and only ate bananas, sweet potatoes and other fruits and vegetables for three meals. The Nine Muses, another Korean group, even exaggeratedly invented the so-called "paper cup diet", that is, put rice into paper cups, but the amount should not exceed 2/3 of the paper cups, and the rest13 should eat vegetables. Xiao Dunren reminded that people with high potassium content and poor renal function in bananas are not suitable for long-term consumption in large quantities, and excessive consumption may damage the kidneys. As for the paper cup diet, it is even more exaggerated. Eating too little a day is almost empty stomach, which is not only doubtful about health, but also difficult to implement for a long time. Xiao Dunren stressed that when making a weight loss plan, we should pay attention to the total calorie intake and determine the daily food intake through calorie calculation. The content of eating is mainly high-fiber, low-fat and unrefined food, which keeps blood sugar stable, makes people feel hungry more easily and makes the weight loss plan more sustainable. Some of the above five misconceptions about weight loss may not be immediately life-threatening. However, whether it is particularly biased towards the intake of a certain type of food or a large reduction in food intake, it will cause nutritional imbalance in the long run. Therefore, neither doctors nor nutritionists recommend it. " Reasonable diet and more exercise "is the only way to lose weight successfully." People who want to speed up weight loss must control diet and exercise, while those who want to maintain a constitution that is not easy to gain weight should increase muscle mass and increase basal metabolic rate. The weight loss plan places great emphasis on "personalization". What is suitable for A may not be suitable for B. The key is to implement the habit of losing weight in life, so as to implement it for a long time and avoid the weight going up and down like a yo-yo. Many people will ask, "Is there such a thing as local slimming? In fact, from the perspective of TCM theory, there is indeed partial weight loss's method, and TCM has a unique theory of meridian tropism. For example, Chinese medicine will recommend taking Liuwei Dihuang pills with light salt water for silver-haired people, which is to make the drug performance guide the kidney to play a role. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the effect of partial weight loss if the Chinese medicine formula is properly combined with Tongluo drugs, and it will be more ideal if it is combined with local acupoints. However, it is still necessary to cooperate with diet control and moderate exercise to strengthen the muscle tightness of this part through exercise. For example, first increase metabolism through aerobic exercise, and then increase muscle tension in this part through muscle strength exercise, so that the curve that needs local carving will be more ideal, and remember that a beautiful curve is more important than weight, and don't fall into the myth of weight.
