To go down in a healthy way, it is necessary that the body he adapt to that lost until achieving ideal weight . Losing a lot in a short time can cause a decompensation , especially when the diet It is very severe.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of the United States affirm that when lose weight there is gradually more success for slim down and stay stable. However, in order to be healthy, it is advisable not to exceed 1 kilogram of weight per week .

Slow but safe

1. Decompensation. The nutritionist Graciela Pérez explains that the subsistence allowance too low in calories help to get down very fast from weight but do not they are always healthy because in most cases they fail to provide the vitamins , minerals and amino acids essentials , which puts in risk the Health .

The deficiency of iron May cause anemia ; when the body lacks b12 vitamin There are problems neurological or the lack of vitamin D weakens the system osseous .

2. Gallstones. Diets designed to lose weight in a short time can favor the formation of gallstones , Explain C. Wayne Callaway, researcher at George Washington University .

The subsistence allowance high in proteins they can cause dehydration for the loss of minerals essential for the system cardiovascular , As the potassium Y sodium . At the same time, there is a risk of atrophy muscle which hurts the muscle cardiac.

The subsistence allowance very restricted who contribute only 1,200 calories a day they put in risk health and can lead to malnutrition .

Remember that for download 1 kilogramgram per week 1,000 should be consumed calories less per day. This amount can be subtracted when more than 4,000 are consumed calories daily, but when you get 2,000 daily it generates a decompensation , says the nutritionist Pérez Moreno .
