Healthy Weight Loss and Dieting

Being overweight is more common than you might think. There are millions of overweight people worldwide and this is the very reason behind so many diets coming up. Some of them go by the names like

>5-Factor

>Atkins

>Bob Greene's Best Life

>South Beach

>Cabbage Soup

>Size Zero

>Dash Diet

>Fat Smash

of which the last three are the most recent ones.

Those behind these dieting plans claim how quickly and rapidly they can help you get rid of excess pounds and kilos. Some go to the extent of making ridiculous claims like reducing up to 10-12 pounds in a week. Experts warn that this kind of weightloss can take place only by losing water which can disturb your entire system negatively with drastic side effects. Moreover, you are likely to put on what you reduce just as rapidly when you stop working on such a plan.

The real essence of all these plans remains the same. Whatever you weigh on scales is a mix of fat, muscles, bones and water. Excess calorie intake makes your body deposit them in the form of fats. As such you need to limit your calorie intake. Moreover, increasing metabolism rate is required to burn excess fat already deposited in your body. This is achievable through physical activity and exercise. Though you need to reduce calorie intake, it is extremely important that you do not starve your body of essential nutrients.

Such plans can be classified into three categories. First is the Fad Diets. These are the ones that are based on processed food and can be called natural plans. There is no clear definition of this kind of a plan. Such a plan is likely to become popular very quickly and falls out of favor just as quickly and they are not substantiated with any sort of clinical studies. More often than not you are not like to achieve anything with this kind of a plan. Moreover, it can even have adverse side effects on your health.

Second category is that of natural plans which are based on the use of various food and dietary constituents. It recommends some of the these dietary constituents while there are some that you need to avoid. For instance, it may recommend certain fish such as Sardines, herrings etc which are a great source of Omega 3 fatty acids or it may recommend use of lean meat instead of the red meat. Similarly, it may recommend low-fat skimmed milk and not the normal fresh milk. Such a plan is based on very clear scientific understanding and knowledge.

The third category of such plans mentioned above are based on use of specially processed food ingredients or supplements; this category is so highly commercialized that even if it has scientific basis at times lies on the boundary of fad dieting plans.

More than such a plan, what you need to reduce and keep of excess weight from coming back in the long run is exercise and proper food intake. Moreover, there are fat binding pills that can help you reduce your fat intake. Such fat binders not only reduce dietary fat absorption but also reduce cravings and suppress appetite.
