Weight Loss Myths

It's time to tear down some of the myths related to weight loss. I'll give you an update as to how Proactol is working for me soon, but for now it's important to get the psychology right behind your reasons for losing weight.

Myth 1:

A High Protein/Low Carb Diet Will Do Wonders For You…

This diet intends to use protein foods to get the daily amount required of calories. These foods can include meat and dairy products while you can also gain some calories in very small amounts from foods with lots of carbs.

The major problem with this diet is that a lot of common foods are not allowed and this means that the diet can get very boring very quickly.

And when you get bored, you're gonna want to quit. Bad idea!

Of course eating all these high protein foods will also raise your cholestrol no end

While these high protein/low carb diets can sometimes result in a lot of weight loss at a fast rate, you can also lose a lot of water as your kidneys are put under strain to expel the excess waste from all the protein and fat. Not a good thing!

This stress on your kidneys will lead to headaches, nausea and dizziness. It's best to stick to a more balanced diet before you do unnecessary harm to your body.
