Low calorie diets, yes or no?

Eat little and evil it is one of the most common mistakes we make when the scale shows that we have a few The risks of making a low calorie diet and the rebound effect, explained by a specialist.

53.4% ​​of those over 18 years Argentines are overweight. Within this group, there are many who do not know what to do or can not find the best way to lose those extra kilos and endanger their health.
One thing should be clear: overweight and obesity are not predominantly aesthetic matters. Beyond the way the social and cultural discourse conditions the look and perception of the physical self, is not about having an attractive figure, but to have a healthy body.
Slimming anxiety is growing and in this frantic search for losing those extra pounds, many are turning to strict diets and sometimes unhealthy.

What side effects can lead to a diet of 600 calories?
With respect to the amount of calories that should have a diet, they depend on the body surface of each patient. Not the same a diet of 600 calories for a woman of 1.60 m with 75 kilos of weight, another for a man weighing 125 1.80m.
Each person has a caloric expenditure (measurable) called basal metabolism according to body surface. For a woman of 1.60 high with 75 kilos approximately 2000 calories are calculated; instead, a man of 1.80 m weighing 120 kilos not spend the same: in this case are calculated 2500/3000 calories. Therefore, give everyone diets of 600 calories is certainly unwise.
To understand the physiological management of the organization is to understand a balance between calories in and calories you expend the body. Enter 600/800/1200 calories and 2000/2500/3000 calories according to the body surface of each person spent. The difference between them is obtained from the energy reserves (body fat) transported from the place of deposit (fat deposit) to the liver, where they are transformed (metabolized) in the element that uses the body (glucose).
It is not the same as the patient spend hours with this picture of fasting, to pass days or weeks with this unbalanced energy balance. In that case, the odds of decompensation increase as more time passes. It has been known for many years that diets 600/800 calories are very dangerous.
Secondly, the element to consider when giving dietary treatment is what nutritional content is given to the patient, how much protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and minerals are being given.
The body negative balance conditions, over a long time, start using supporting elements (muscle, tendon, bone) to transform them into glucose (protein malnutrition) so you can bring the collapse of the body.
Third, if followed with such negative balances, they begin to generate hormonal changes that decrease in thyroid hormones, glucocorticoids increase, and descend testosterone and estradiol, resulting in decreased libido and sexual potency.

Can you bring health problems?
Complete diets isocaloric have a good nutritional intake not generate any negative consequences, except when they are incomplete. For example, in pure vegetarians, the contribution of protein should be essential. Deficiencies of vitamins and minerals can lead to complications throughout the diet. It is advisable to make low calorie diets, lose weight and gain weight back.

What to consider when addressing a plan to lose weight?
Timely slimming unquestioningly what should put the patient does not serve the physician or a family member or friend tell the patient to lose weight, when necessary personnel "the click". To make an effective treatment, the person must be mentally prepared to make an effort to put aside everything that is passionate about "eat and enjoy!".

A weight loss diet has forbidden foods?
There are no forbidden foods, only foods that are high in calories or low in calories and that means that with small amounts daily contribution will be covered. This leads to not being able to eat the rest of the food needed to complete a proper nutritional balance. Therefore, a diet should contain foods that provide few calories and give much volume generating thus digestive satiety.
