Crash Diets and Their Negative Effects

Spring is here, summer is at the doorstep. In these times, how to lose weight in the shortest time is generally being researched. The thought that I need to be very fit urgently by the summer may be motivating you.

Especially when you write on the internet, you come across diets such as the diet that makes you lose 5 kg in 1 week, the strawberry diet, the zucchini diet, the cabbage diet... In other words, shock diets.

WHAT IS SHOCK DIET?

Shock diets; They are low-calorie diets of 1000 kcal and below, usually consisting of a single type of nutrition or only liquid intake.

NEGATIVE EFFECTS

When you follow such diets, the scales will be shorter. You can see great results in the long term. But this is not fat you lose, but water and muscle loss. This negatively affects your metabolism. It can cause serious health problems. At the same time, you will quickly gain the weight you lost while starving in the short term. We call this 'yo-yo syndrome' in the clinic. This becomes a cycle. You follow crash diets and lose weight quickly. Then, you quickly return to your old habits and regain the weight you lost so quickly. Studies have shown that individuals who follow a crash diet have more eating attacks after a crash diet than before. At the same time, such diets cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies and weaken your immune system.

So please do not follow the diets you hear about here and there. Aim to lose weight with a nutrition program that includes a healthy and balanced diet that is suitable for you and that you can follow in the long term. Don't just aim to lose weight. Aim to achieve this in a healthy and balanced way.

Remember; A single food will neither make you gain weight nor make you thin. My teacher from university always said that you are a nutrition and diet expert, your duty is to provide sustainable nutrition. In other words, you should make a healthy and balanced diet a lifestyle.

If you want to reach your ideal weight and lose weight, be sure to do this with the help of an expert.
