When you adopt a high-protein, low-carb, or ketogenic diet or any other such diet you create an imbalance in the body. You may lose some weight initially because these are extreme and work on the principle of forcing the body to lose weight, but then you pull all of it, and sometimes much more, back on. Along with losing that initial weight you also lose crucial vitamins and minerals that are critical to the functioning and balance of cells in the body leading to malnutrition. These further impacts immunity, the body’s first and last line of defense, and create an environment in the body that makes weight loss a constant and never-ending struggle. Some of the above diets may be necessary to treat certain ailments and diseases but are never appropriate for weight loss. What you need instead is a balanced quantity of nutrients to be digested assimilated and absorbed in the blood and cells to build a body that can lose weight and build up health. You can never force the body to lose weight you need to create an environment that ‘allows’ it to lose weight. Even a slight deficiency of one vitamin or trace mineral can prevent weight loss from happening or create a hormonal imbalance.
In conclusion, it is essential to understand that weight loss should not be achieved by following extreme diets that may lead to malnutrition and compromise immunity. Instead, we should focus on maintaining a balanced diet that provides all the necessary nutrients required for the optimal functioning of our body.
