Starvation is prohibited in the diet!
Some diets have a great impact on our stomach and intestines and digestive system. These are single-meal diets and people who follow them eat only one meal. Enduring hunger is very harmful and dangerous for the physical health of these people. Metabolism, blood pressure and hormone secretion in the body of these people will be disturbed.
In some diets, only one meal a day is eaten.
As for single-meal diets, it can be said: because chemical reactions drive the body’s metabolism, and when only one meal a day is eaten, your cholesterol and blood pressure may rise and, in addition, cause hunger in the body. all day and increase the amount of cortisol hormone.
Cortisol causes more glucose to be sent to the blood in stressful situations. Elevated blood glucose caused by the effect of cortisol causes insulin resistance in the long term, slow metabolism can make your efforts to lose weight futile.
Studies have shown that starvation or very low-calorie diets may cause insulin resistance and reveal diabetes in people who have no history of diabetes.
Also, the effect of semi-starvation diets on the digestive system and the heart has been seen, so that the reduction of protein reserves has an effect on the functions of the digestive system, including digestion and absorption, causing a decrease in the body’s nitrogen reserves, especially the heart muscle, and also consequences such as low blood pressure. It leads to sudden cardiac arrest and gall bladder stones.
Also, long-term hunger by reducing the body’s muscle tissue causes a further decrease in the body’s metabolism and, as a result, more resistance to weight loss.
