Fox News: American nutritionists spoke about the dangers of Kim Kardashian’s diet

Nutritionists from Long Island University (USA) told the world about the diet that helped Kim Kardashian to part with extra pounds and squeeze into the famous dress of Marilyn Monroe. In just three weeks, the well-known curvaceous star managed to lose seven kilograms, Fox News reminds readers.

Lose weight Kardashian helped a complete rejection of sugar and carbohydrates. But this way of getting rid of excess weight is insidious – returning to the previous diet, losing weight using the Kardashian method risks gaining the same weight and even gaining extra pounds. Deborah Salvatore, a nutritionist at Long Island University in New York, is convinced of this.

Her colleague, Dr. Laura Feldman, also warns that following the “Kardashian diet” can lead to a slow metabolism. Fewer calories will enter the body, so it will have to burn less and less. “These diets that eliminate entire food groups don’t work long-term and can lead to weight gain and a few extra pounds because the practice is too extreme,” she recalls.

The “Kardashian diet” has another “side effect” in which the body lacks the nutrients it needs. “Cutting out carbs often results in people feeling dizzy, tired, and having difficulty concentrating,” warns Laura Feldman. “This is because carbohydrates and sugar are sources of energy for the brain, muscles and cells of the body.”

Experts remind that emergency diets for rapid weight loss are recommended only for obese people. You can’t “sit” on such diets for more than 12 weeks, and at this time the patient must be under the supervision of a doctor, emphasizes the Doctor Peter portal. Citizens who want to lose weight should limit their calorie intake, limit the amount of salty foods, do not forget about the necessary (6-8 glasses per day) amount of water and lead a more active lifestyle.
