Weight Loss Diet

Weight loss diets are not always ideal; generally they are based on a sudden reduction in calorific and nutritional intake to achieve rapid weight loss.  Will they do the job? Will the weight loss be real? Will the weight bounce back? All these questions should be considered at the start of a diet.  We are all individuals and each of us has our own distinct requirements and nutritional needs. Hence IDEAL DIETS have to be personalized, adjusted considering anthropometric characteristics, age and personal history. Once analyzed, the individual’s ideal weight can be calculated and the correct daily calorific consumption determined.

A reduction in calorific intake will help weight loss but the important thing is to maintain a good balance of nutrients, consuming adequate portions.  The Ideal Weight Loss Diet is influenced by a variety of factors including culture, economic status and family situation. Adequate nutrition must be our principal objective

Let us begin with the basic themes which include the concept of eating: When we refer only to the ingestion of food, whether or not we take into account the nutritional contribution, learning to eat right starts from the moment that we make our selection in the supermarket analyzing the nutritional tables on the packaging; trying to determine which is the best product on the market and preferring those with lower values of calories, fats, sugars and sodium. In this way we can reduce the energy contained in each and promote weight loss. After this careful selection it is important that the diet be balanced, that it includes all the nutrients: Macronutrients (Proteins, Fats and Carbohydrates) and micronutrients (Vitamins and Minerals). To satisfy our body’s needs, each of these performs a specific function and hence should not be totally elimiated.

Today there are millions of diets, some good, some not so good, the dietitian is the best person to provide reliable advice respecting the calorific intake of the ideal diet for each individual. He/she is trained to guide patients with nutritional discipline and determine the evolution of body weight with respect to physical activity.  One defect in fad diets is that they are not personalized, they are sacrificial and even dangerous with no regard for  monetary value or effects that can prejudice health.
