Weight Loss and Management in Chinese Medicine
A major concern in today’s world is weight loss. Many people become depressed and feel immense stress for this reason. Excess weight and obesity are medical conditions that increase health risks.
Popular Methods and Side Effects
1. Starvation
This method can cause malnutrition and loss of glow and elasticity of hair and skin. More importantly, it can decrease metabolism. Once eating begins again, the body cannot easily process excessive carbs, which will result in more fat.
2. Purging
This method can lead to acid reflux. The esophagus can also suffer from damage and result in future eating disorders.
3. Eliminating fat from the diet
Fat in foods is not completely bad. The human body needs fat to maintain normal organ structure and supply energy. Complete elimination of fat can cause constipation.
4. Fruit diet instead of staple food
Eating fruits alone and nothing else can cause nutritional imbalances. Our body needs proteins, iron, and other minerals from a variety of foods to function normally.
