Metabolic weight loss
There are several different methods aimed at weight loss. One of them is the so-called "metabolic weight loss." If you have never encountered this before, it is time to study the theoretical part of the issue before moving on to practice.
What is metabolic weight loss?
This method helps to fight excess weight and strengthen the body. Within its framework, the metabolism is activated. The overall condition of the body improves, strength and endurance increase, and sleep is normalized. The authors of this weight loss concept divide people into three metabolic types. This is done using a special questionnaire:- Protein type — fast metabolism. For nutrition, it is advisable to use foods that are digested rather slowly.
- Carbohydrate type — slow metabolism. In this case, it is recommended to focus on foods that are digested very quickly.
- Mixed type. The authors of the method recommend introducing whole foods into the daily diet and, if possible, completely eliminating fast carbohydrates.
Metabolic weight loss – what is it?
The main idea is that a slowed or disrupted metabolism can prevent weight loss, even with a calorie deficit.Principles of metabolic weight loss
- Balanced nutrition does not involve strict diets. It includes the proper combination of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
- Boosting metabolism involves fractional meals in small portions, consuming thermogenic products (spicy spices, green tea, protein).
- Physical activity implies strength training and cardio exercises to increase energy expenditure.
- Normalizing sleep is very important in the weight loss process, since chronic lack of sleep slows down metabolism.
- Stress control plays a major role. It has been proven that high cortisol levels interfere with fat burning.
- Hydration includes sufficient water intake, which speeds up metabolic processes.
Modern scientists believe that focusing on a person’s metabolic type when choosing a specific nutrition system for weight loss can be beneficial. Their conclusions are based on the idea of a personalized nutrition algorithm. According to researchers, the effectiveness of the chosen weight loss method plays a secondary role. The main emphasis is placed on well-being and mood.
In recent years, almost no high-quality studies on metabolic diets have been conducted. One experiment demonstrated that it is not easy to accurately determine one’s current metabolic type independently. Practice has shown that questionnaire results are inaccurate.
Therefore, remember: effective weight loss becomes possible only with a calorie deficit, and dietary nutrition only helps to create it. A deficit can also be achieved with adequate physical activity. It is not so important how the calorie deficit is created. You may change nothing in your diet but expend a lot of energy in daily life. Or you can start eating properly and reduce calorie intake.
