A Canadian nephrologist came up with his own theory about being overweight.

According to Canadian doctor Jason Fang, nutritionists who advise consuming fewer calories in order to lose weight and impress everyone with their slimness are deeply mistaken. This postulate, which has been followed for the last 50 years, does not always give a positive result, according to a nephrologist.


Myth 1. Eat less and you will be thinner.

Weight control in the human body occurs at the hormonal level. By simply starting to eat poorly, you can bring yourself to an imbalance of vital organs, which will lack resources for normal functioning. If it continues for a long time, there will be irreversible health consequences.

At the same time, the weight can remain at the previous level.

Myth 2. Obesity depends on the amount of fat consumed.

Such a statement may not apply to everyone. Again, due to the hidden work of the body, which a person cannot control from the outside. Someone can eat buns with buns and feel great, and someone just needs to look at this bun to gain a couple of extra kilograms.



What shall I do? To treat a hormonal imbalance that does not allow a person to soberly assess the needs of his body, and therefore absorb what he has already been given before demanding a new portion of food.

Myth 3. Sport is a panacea for weight loss.

A person can control the number of calories consumed, but is not able to monitor their consumption and distribute what exactly they will be spent on. Limiting yourself in food and exhausting yourself with training, you can inadvertently turn on the economy mode not for the waist and hips, for which, in fact, everything is started, but, for example, for the brain.



It's just that the body will suddenly for some reason decide that with such a merciless attitude towards itself, a person no longer needs the brain, since he does not use it anyway.
