Diet: you choose the right one?
Are you planning an elegant evening, and you’ll be tempted to skip lunch for a slimmer feel? Better not. A study by two researchers at the University of California, Traci Mann and Janet Tomiyama, has dispelled all doubt: diets do-it-yourself are a failure.
Examining over 30 studies on long-term weight loss, which over the years have involved thousands of people to diet, the two scientists were able to show that the weight lost taking these diets almost always regarded with interest, and to the detriment of health.
“At first we may be able to lose even 5-10% of its weight with any diet,” said Traci Mann, “but after a while ‘the weight back.”
Of all the people examined in the 31 studies under review, more than two thirds have taken over not only your weight, but have found even within 4-5 years more fat than before.
The so-called yo-yo effect, then, leaves no escape, and can have dangerous effects on health, doubling the risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and heart attack.
According to scientists, in short, the benefits arising from traditional diets minute are too few compared to the damage potential. The only solution is to use the support of a physician, capable of developing a serious and personalized diet. Or, alternatively, keep the pounds too many. And go on vacation in the mountains.
