It is a fact that excessive fat in people who are overweight usually causes further health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, fatty liver, or diabetes.
Moreover, being overweight significantly increases the risk of developing more serious diseases such as cancer.
Main dietary principles for weight loss
Foods rich in fiber quite effectively reduce cravings for food, prevent constipation and also keep you full for a longer time.
Foods rich in protein are also important for weight loss. They maintain muscle mass, which often gets lost along with fat during dieting.
In addition, proteins increase energy levels and provide enough strength for your daily activities.
Don’t forget, there is no reason to starve while dieting. You can start by replacing your breakfast with three smoothies, whose recipes we’ll reveal to you today.
