Last week we talked about the deprivation diets and the serious implications for our health. Today we will focus especially on a type of neglect diet, it's those that prohibit the consumption of carbohydrates, one of the best known is Dr. Atkins, or Scarsdale diet.
In the case of the first diet, this is based on primarily on eliminating foods with carbohydrates, therefore, talk about a diet has no sugars, grains, or vegetables, can make unrestricted meats, fish, meats and vegetables and vegetables. A diet rich in proteins and fats.
However, while we can lose easily 2 kg in one or two days, we do this through the loss of water. This hurts us a lot, that we begin to dehydrate us. This diet also reduces appetite, which allows it to continue for several months.
The Atkins diet is especially popular in countries such as United States, recently it was modified, replacing the animal fats by vegetable fats and including a small amount of carbohydrates a day. This allowed to achieve six months than conventional diets to lose more weight and has a favourable effect on cholesterol. Although two years we achieved the same effect as we would with another diet.
Therefore, it makes no sense this type of diet to follow when we can do a more healthy and achieve long term, and of course, the same healthy without damaging our health.
