Introduction
We already know that obesity has become a worldwide epidemic. According the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), in 2007, only one state (Colorado) had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%. Thirty states had a prevalence equal to or greater than 25%; 3 of these states (Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee) had a prevalence of obesity equal to or greater than 30%. Obesity or simply being overweight is a significant risk factor for cancer, diabetes, gallbladder disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, joint-and muscle pains, arthritis, respiratory problems and psycho-emotional disorders.
Popular Diets & Weight Loss Programs
Most people reading this have been on a diet or weight loss program before. Most likely, you were able to lose some weight but regained it. The USDA and American Cancer Institute both conducted extensive research and studied the most popular diets on the market today. The conclusion of both studies indicated that ALL of them had one common denominator: THEY ARE LOW-CALORIE diets, which makes them work short-term. However, long-term results are never obtained with any of these popular diets or weight loss programs.
Low-calorie diets explained: When you consume less calories/day than your body needs to sustain life, your body is forced to get those calories from somewhere else. Consequently, your body will break down its own muscle tissue to obtain the necessary energy deficit from its protein. During these low-calorie diets your body is in a starvation-mode. Your body is deprived from the nutrients it needs. You will lose weight, guaranteed. However, when you stop these diets you will regain the weight fast. That’s why they are also called ‘yo-yo’ diets. Even more importantly, these popular diets are UN-Balanced and therefore Un-healthy!
