Lose weight with diets is not safe. Scientists are finding new evidence of this.

"How many times they have told the world" - losing weight with diets is not safe! But the world does not listen to warnings from scientists and doctors: diets grow in number, and together with them the number of their supporters grows. Meanwhile, scientists are finding new evidence that diets are unsafe.

One such discovery was recently made by researchers at the Albert Einstein Institute of Medicine at the Yeshiva University in New York. They learned that during the diet of the brain cells, struggling with hunger, they begin to eat themselves. This phenomenon is called autophagy.

But diets are not only dangerous for the brain. It suffers from their virtually whole body.

If, for example, long restrict themselves to food, the effect will be irritability and lethargy, which may be added and depression. These are the consequences of anemia and anemia, which lead to fasting. At fans of various prestigious and exotic diets there is a chance to earn diseases more seriously. For example, if you sit for a long time on a salt-free diet, the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and sweet diabetes will increase dramatically. Protein diets are the way to an overestimated pressure and the risk of developing atherosclerosis, which is promoted by the highest level of cholesterol in the blood. Osteoporosis, anemia and blood diseases can also result from such diets. Deprived of fruits and vegetables will face constipation, either diarrhea, intestinal spasms and general weakness. But most of all risk those who try to adjust their own weight with pills. The consequence of this weight loss can be a hormonal imbalance with all that follows:

disruption of the intestine, insomnia and decreased endurance, high blood pressure, headache and vomiting. And with an overdose of drugs for weight loss may develop a myocardial infarction, in the thinnest cases, everything can end in a fatal outcome. That's why dieticians advise to adjust the weight to use not diet, but the rules of healthy optimal nutrition, balanced both in terms of their own quantitative composition, and high-quality.
