Crash diets may seem full of promises. Crash diets give quick weight loss results due to their extremely low calorie intake, but they temporary, as they require you to skip meals or go on extremely low calories, hardly eat anything. A fad diet which is also a crash diet, would require you to eat only one or few items resulting in extremely low calorie intake. It weakens your body and the functioning of your organs leading you to starvation.
Deprivation of essential nutrients increases the brain’s natural chemicals that cause hunger and that’s the end of the crash diet or fad diet. And you start to crave for certain food and might give in to overeating and indulgence. This is a signal that you are not getting sufficient calories or food intake. Choose to eat healthy, from all important food groups. Your body has been programed to make you hungry as a survival mechanism. Have 3 nutritious meals and 2 healthy snacks like fruits. Avoid too much salt, sugar and fat. Breakfast is truly essential for you and don’t skip it. It isn't that you don't have the will power to diet. Your body has been programmed to make you hungry as a survival mechanism.
