Which Diet Should You Choose? Diet Comparison and Nutritionist's Opinion.
Most diets promise rapid weight loss, but in the long term, they often do more harm than good. Weight loss is achieved not by burning fat, but by losing muscle mass, stomach and intestinal contents, and body water.
The majority of people wanting to lose weight are not nutrition experts, so they rely on loud promises and advertisements like: "Quick results without effort!"
Although diets with very low calorie, carbohydrate, or fat content may seem effective, they often result in slow metabolism, lack of energy, and the jo-jo effect, which makes weight loss even more difficult.
Of course — we all want quick results.
But.
Is that realistic?
Can you quickly lose the weight that has accumulated over the years without facing health consequences?
If the only thing you care about is the number on the scale, you can:
- Follow a trendy but extreme diet that is very low in carbohydrates and calories.
Or.
- Start taking laxatives (they can reduce your stomach and intestinal contents by 2 to 4 kg) and limit your intake of carbohydrates and salt (one gram of carbohydrates retains approximately 2.7 to 4 grams of water, and one gram of sodium retains approximately 100 grams of water). If you used to eat a lot of ultra-processed foods, you can lose 3 to 5 kg in a week due to water retention alone.
Yes, you can lose three to five kilograms in a few days, mostly water and intestinal contents.
But what then?
