1: Insufficient high-quality protein. Everyone knows that the basic unit of the human body is cells, and the main component of cell formation is protein. Since every organ involves protein, when our intake of high-quality protein is insufficient, it will affect the overall body function. The skin becomes dull, lackluster, prone to aging (loss of collagen); metabolism becomes imbalanced, endocrine disruption, acne formation (enzymes and hormones cannot be fully generated); resistance decreases (lack of antibodies); severe cases can lead to edema (unregulated osmotic pressure).
Harm 2: Insufficient various vitamins. Lack of vitamin A can easily cause gastrointestinal and urinary system infections, and even affect the reproductive system. Lack of vitamin B can reduce carbohydrate and fat metabolism, leading to obesity. Insufficient vitamins can hinder collagen synthesis, affecting the skin’s elasticity and luster. The body’s detoxification function is impaired. Resistance significantly decreases.
Harm 3: Internal protein is consumed. When nutrient absorption is insufficient, the body will prioritize the consumption of internal protein rather than fat! Proteins usually are not completely decomposed, leading to the production of free radicals! Free radicals are definitely the main culprits of diseases and aging in the human body.
Harm 4: Basal metabolic rate decreases, becoming more prone to obesity. Long-term dieting causes our bodies to lack nutrients, so to maintain normal life activities, the basal metabolic rate will decrease. This is also the reason why dieting for weight loss encounters bottlenecks.
Harm 5: Easily rebound higher. Everyone says the more you diet, the fatter you become. The truth behind this is the “effect” brought about by dieting for weight loss. When reaching a point where weight loss plateaus, many individuals give up and return to normal eating habits. At this point, fat cells, being suppressed for a long time, bounce back like a stretched spring, accelerating growth and expansion. Coupled with the poor basal metabolic rate due to dieting, fat accumulates like mushrooms after rain.
