Nutritionist Marina Makisha explained why it is not possible to lose weight using the principle of “eat less and move more.”
Nutritionist Makisha stated that exercise and sports are not a panacea for losing weight. Sports are not very important for losing weight, the doctor stated in an interview with FederaPress.
“Sports are of little importance for losing weight and are not the main tool for losing weight. “Only 10 percent of the weight loss result is due to sports,” the specialist clarified.
Makisha noted that sports activities are important for maintaining good health and muscles, active metabolism, and hormone production. All this allows you to have a slim, toned body in conditions of a balanced diet without excessive restrictions.
The nutritionist believes that the principle of “eating less” to maintain a slim figure is wrong. Makisha emphasized that with food the body receives the nutrients it needs to function properly, even when the goal is to lose weight. By refusing to eat, a person will only be able to lose weight to the detriment of their health, since this will create a deficiency of useful nutrients, which has a destructive effect on the body.
“It is important to understand that if a person wants to lose weight, then they will have to understand their diet and understand how much and what foods they need to eat so that the weight loss process is comfortable and safe for health,” the nutritionist summarized.
