Diets whose effectiveness and safety have not been scientifically proven often become more popular than safe and proven ones.
One such example is the metabolic diet, whose developers assign a certain number of points to food products.
Endocrinologist Tatyana Frolova spoke about the consequences of this diet in an interview with the publication Doctor Peter.
Metabolic Diet
The essence of the project is that food products, depending on their caloric content, are assigned a certain number of points.
A person should count points, not calories.
Moreover, during the first two weeks, a minimal amount of carbohydrates is consumed.
And already in the third week of following the diet, there are almost no restrictions. All that remains is to eat and count the number of points.
Consequences
The expert says that the downside of the metabolic diet is the loss of fluid, which is why the body loses weight.
The promised acceleration of metabolism does not occur.
Like any other similar diet, this one also has restrictions and is therefore contraindicated for patients with digestive problems.
Earlier we talked about what a fasting day should be like so that it does not harm the body .
