Nutritionists constantly warn about the dangers of rapid weight loss, which can be achieved by following extreme diets.

Few people are stopped by these warnings, and in the pursuit of slimness, the number of fans of diets that have a negative impact on health does not decrease.

Dietician Mikhail Ginzburg spoke about which diets to be wary of in an interview with Vechernyaya Moskva .

Mono diet

This is one of the most dangerous methods of fighting excess weight.

Those who want to lose weight have to consume only one food product for a long time, excluding sources of energy and nutrients.

Sooner or later a deficiency will arise, and the longer a person stays on this diet, the more significant harm it will cause to the body.

Fruit and vegetable diet

The diet is undoubtedly effective and helps to lose weight. However, you will have to deal with gastrointestinal problems later.

It's all about the low calorie content of vegetables and fruits, as well as the content of organic acids that irritate the gastric mucosa.

As a result, gastritis and ulcers occur, and the acidity of gastric juice increases. In patients with existing gastrointestinal problems, the condition may worsen.

Intermittent fasting

This diet has its advantages, but without physical activity there is a risk of losing muscle mass.

Otherwise, intermittent fasting improves lipid composition and reduces blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
