Diet plans for weight loss can contribute to your goals. Eating healthily is a big part of losing weight and maintaining a good physique. It also makes you energized and will boost your serotonin levels so you are ready to take on your day. However, there are many issues with weight loss plans that can actually do you more bad than good.
Let’s go over some issues with the following diet plans for weight loss.
Ketogenic Diet
The Ketogenic diet, also known as ‘keto’, is believed to be an effective weight-loss method. It is a high-fat, adequate-protein, and low-carb plan. It sends the body into a state where fat is used for energy. But, in order for it to be effective, there can be no cheat days. This is the challenging and unhealthy aspect of going on the Ketogenic diet. Your body needs sugars and carbs to function. This is why a specialized nutritional plan is a right option.
Paleo Diet
The idea behind the Paleo diet is to eat foods that our Paleolithic ancestors would eat. This includes meat, fish, poultry, vegetables, fruits and eggs. It might sound quite simple from this list. However, the diet can cause calcium and vitamin D deficiencies. And that can lead to other health issues caused by the lack of nutrients.
Atkins Diet
The Atkins diet is a low-carb and high-protein diet. Some say that the Keto diet is the new version of the Atkins. This plan works in phases to bring you the so-called ‘most effective results. However, a low-fat, high-carb diet can promote obesity and heart problems. Additionally, if you have diabetes you should be cautious due to the lack of nutrients you will receive.
