The Hidden Dangers of Blindly Pursuing Weight Loss

February 7, 2024

Being healthy is more important than being fat or thin. Don't blindly pursue the perfect figure without taking care of your health. It's really not worth it. The trend of losing weight has been sweeping China's women's health this year. Let's take a closer look with the editor!

Sharing a weight loss case with everyone

Recently, I came across a story online. The protagonist, Xiao Qian, is an art student. Three years ago, because she felt she was too fat, she embarked on the journey of losing weight. She bought a lot of weight loss supplements such as enzymes and L-carnitine from abroad and started dieting.

Since then, Xiao Qian has only been eating one meal a day. She even calculates the calories she consumes by counting each grain of rice. After eating, she has to burn off the energy by jumping rope continuously. Sometimes, she even vomits the food to feel relieved.

After three years, Xiao Qian lost a total of 60 kilograms and now weighs only 50 kilograms! She became extremely thin, weak and unable to walk. Her body suffered from congestion, ulceration, and gastric bleeding, accompanied by brain tissue degeneration. It was truly shocking.

The hospital even issued a critical condition notice.

(1) "Anorexia nervosa, severe malnutrition, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome."

(2) "Severe brain tissue degeneration, as fragile as a 60-year-old."

(3) "Surviving after three years of low-energy diet is a miracle in itself."

Several doctors made great efforts to save her from the brink of death.

Every summer, a large number of "beauty lovers" cry and join the weight loss army. As a result, various fad weight loss methods have emerged. Little do they know that these so-called weight loss methods are becoming a hidden killer that seriously affects the health of Chinese women.

Eating fruits is better than taking weight loss pills

1. Lemon

Lemon is definitely a fruit for slimming the face, especially the substances and vitamin C in lemons, which promote metabolism and not only slim the face but also the body.

2. Tomato

Tomatoes contain lycopene, dietary fiber, and pectin. They are almost entirely made up of water and can make you feel full.

Moreover, they have very low calories, with only 30 calories per 200 grams, making them very suitable for weight loss.

3. Papaya

The protein-digesting enzymes and papain in papaya can break down fat, allowing you to achieve both facial slimming and body shaping effects.

4. Apple

As the saying goes, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Apples have high nutritional value and are also very suitable for weight loss.

For obese girls, the most important thing is that apples can reduce calorie absorption. In addition, apples are rich in potassium, which can prevent leg swelling.

Reminder: As the ancient saying goes, "All medicines have three parts poison." You never know whether what you eat is a remedy or a poison. So, don't indulge in taking medication for weight loss.
