Gastroenterologist warns of negative consequences of popular diets
When choosing a diet, you should consult a doctor and select a menu individually.
If you ignore this simple rule, you can seriously harm your health.
The thing is that popular diets are not suitable for everyone. When choosing a diet, you need to consider your body type, metabolism, health, and so on.
Gastroenterologist Alla Nerullina told Life about this in more detail.
She noted that she doubts the effectiveness of calorie counting, noting that the schemes for this counting vary.
Manufacturers may indicate the calorie content of a product on labels, but the error may be up to 20 percent.
In addition, the calorie content is affected by cooking conditions. For example, if a raw egg has 47 kcal, then an omelette has about 100.
As for the popular low-carb diet, it has a lot of side effects, for example, there is a possibility of problems with the thyroid gland, hormonal background. The keto diet (carbohydrate-free) is harmful, since there may be cramps, hypoglycemia, and so on.
Drinking and mono-diets can have negative consequences.
