Would Starvation Truly Help You Lose Weight and Stay Fit?

Article Category: Wellness, Fitness and Diet

In the weight loss industry, there are two types of concepts: truths and myths. You need to figure out and accept the truth and disregard the myth. However, it is easier said than done. In the modern world, lies are more attractive and popular than the truths. As such, most people fall for the lies and harm themselves. However, this won't happen to you if you take the time to read this article. In this article I will talk about one of the top prevailing myth which is badly affecting the weight loss industry!

One of the most popular weight loss myths is that if you starve, you would lose weight fast! People, especially those who are new to weight loss, believe that if they starve non-stop for several weeks consecutively, all their excess weight would go away and they would be able to munch on junk foods once again!

Truth however, is not so rosy! In fact, your body requires a certain amount of calories per day to function properly. Once your body is deprived of this basic nutrition, it feels that you are killing it. To protect itself from death, it would move into what is known in medical parlance as "starvation mode". While in starvation mode, your body would stop the fat burning process by lowering your metabolic rate.

The end result would be that even if you lose a few pounds of weight, it would be water weight loss (caused as a result of starvation) and NOT fat loss. Water weight loss is temporary and the "lost" weight would return back once you start resuming your normal diet! If you want to achieve permanent weight loss, you need to burn FAT instead!

There are diets that make you eat only a piece of carrot or a glass of lemon juice over a 24-hour period. These diets are making you starve. Once again your body would stop the fat burning process to protect itself from premature death. Worse, when you quit dieting and resume your normal eating mode, you would gain some extra weight over and above what you started with!

There is more to it. Starvation decreases your muscle mass. Here is how: normally your body uses carbohydrates to provide the necessary energy. But when you starve, your carbohydrate storage gets depleted rapidly, leaving you with just fat and muscles. By nature your body would keep the fat intact for future use and start burning muscles for energy production instead.
As you lose muscles, your metabolic rate would automatically decrease! A time would come when you would have more fat than muscles. This is not a situation you want. If you have very little muscle you won't be able to burn fat and lose weight as muscles help you burn fat fast!
