Wanting to fit into their favorite dress for a special occasion, fashionistas decide on desperate actions in the form of strict, or as experts call them, extreme diets.
The developers of such programs guarantee results after just one week of fasting, but often remain silent about the consequences.
Experts have revealed what will happen to the body in just one week of rapid weight loss.
Health risks
1. The body remains for a long time without vitamins, minerals and macroelements necessary for its support.
But with the loss of extra pounds, your body is left without energy sources and immunity decreases.
2. Due to the fact that the number of calories is reduced, the body's metabolism slows down, as it is forced to conserve resources.
This is precisely what causes weight gain after completing the diet.
3. Problems with the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract arise.
This is caused by a lack of nutrients, which leads to constipation or diarrhea.
4. The cardiovascular system is at risk, as extreme diets often cause a lack of potassium and magnesium.
As a result, the risk of developing arrhythmia and other heart diseases increases.
Doctors remind that an extreme diet course lasting more than 10 days can cause serious consequences.
