Most people make mistakes when it comes to control the
causes of overweight and obesity. That is no surprise because of the huge amount of useless information and scams on one side, and the lack of helpful and fundamental information on the other. Therefore I have created this article with the 3 most common mistakes people make in order to prevent them from happening again. The three major mistakes are less expenditure of energy, the increased intake of wrong ingredients and the wrong frequency of eating. Besides I will provide you with recommendations in order to avoid these main mistakes. If you act on these recommendations you will be able to lose weight naturally.
They do not perform any exercises or any physical activity at all Less expenditure of energy is certainly one of the main
causes of overweight and obesity. You need to know an important fundamental fact. There are two parameters which you can affect positively when it comes to loosing weight. On one side it is the calories you ingest, and on the other it is the calories you burn. By performing exercises or any physical activities you can affect the calories you are burning positively. Your metabolic rate is a key factor at this. Performing exercises increases your metabolic rate for several hours. For this reason it is much easier to burn fat whilst performing exercises or doing at least any physical activities like long walks for instance.
They eat wrong food products Another widely-spread cause of overweight and obesity is that many overweight people ingest high caloric food products. High caloric food products almost always contain a lot of simple sugar and trans fatty acids. These two ingredients are the two main thickeners at all. Simple sugar will be metabolized in fat by tendency. Trans fatty acids have twice as many calories as carbohydrates or protein per gram and are simply unhealthy. I recommend that you get into the habit of reading the ingredients of the food products before buying. By eating healthy and low-caloric food products you are on the right track in order to actually lose weight.
They are eating 3 big portions instead of 5 smaller ones In correlation to the intake of high caloric food, the ingestion of 3 big meals per day is another main cause of overweight and obesity. In fact, this habit of eating keeps you away from burning fat. Why is that? Every time you ingest food to your body your metabolic rate is boosting a little bit. By eating 5 smaller portions per day you are taking advantage of this effect. Besides, eating more often and regularly prevents ravenous hunger. There is no need to eat unhealthy and high caloric snacks in between the meals.
Now that you know more about the major mistakes people make when it comes to controlling overweight and obesity, you probably will approach things in a new way. Let us resume. Performing no exercises or any physical activity, the ingestion of high caloric food and eating 3 big portions per day are the main mistakes you should avoid. You should keep in mind that your metabolic rate is a key factor at this. There is, of course, much more useful information concerning overweight and obesity, e.g. information on nutrition and diets. But by putting this information into practice you will be able to affect the causes of overweight and obesity positively and actually lose weight.
