Ukrainians have become victims of rapid weight loss

Today in Ukraine every fourth woman and every sixth man suffers from obesity. In spring, the number of “victims” of rapid weight loss traditionally increases. The chief physician of the “Medical Health Center” Alexander Zolotarev (Kharkov) spoke about this.

The consequences of attempts to quickly lose excess weight are even more dangerous than obesity itself, the specialist noted. The result of unbalanced loads in the gym can be sprained ligaments, spinal instability, herniated discs, and exacerbation of radiculitis. A strict diet and sudden changes in diet can lead to gastritis and stomach ulcers.

Of course, obesity has a detrimental effect on the body, but attempts to suddenly lose weight can provoke injuries, diseases of internal organs and hormonal imbalances. To bring your weight back to normal without harm to your health, you need to systematically monitor your diet and level of physical activity, and lead a healthy lifestyle. Spontaneous and one-time loads are stress for the body, summarized A. Zolotarev.
