Many miraculous weight loss diets promises great results and effective weight loss plans without mentioning the possible side effects of the low caloric intake and the disastrous results after coming back to the previous eating habits. Many fad diets hide the consequences and the dangers of their magic weight loss programs with no efficiency on the long term. Some of these dangers are not only represented by the coming back extra pounds and some more in addition, but they may include serious health problems, especially if dieting more time than usual.

The main negative consequence of the sudden weight loss program is losing the fluids and the muscle mass of the body. From this point the coming back of other pounds is not a danger, but a reality that will happen sooner or later. Dieting and experimenting little food intake may present many dangers and one of the most obvious may be fatigue, irritability and even depression. These are exterior signs of anemia or other type of inner imbalance of the well function of the body. Fainting, muscle mass reduction, rashes and bloodshot eyes are other side effects of the continuous dieting with no proper recommendation from the health care provider, dietitian or nutritionist.

Low carb diets present other dangers – the risks of developing cardiovascular diseases, and even type 2 diabetes. The reduced intake of fruits and vegetables known for their benefits may have important side effects – headaches, general weakness, abdominal cramps, diarrhea or constipation and other possible abnormalities of the intestinal function. The brain and muscle are not supplied properly, fact that contributes to the muscle weakness and fluid loss even if altogether with fat loss, to confusion, irritability, nervousness, stressful mind state and depression. The advantage of being slim and fit and the disadvantage of having health problems is a difficult dilemma.

Scientists sustain that the studies and researches about the low-carbohydrate diets and high fat, high protein eating programs have other negative effects and possible future dangers. Among them there are: the high glycemic index, the high blood pressure, the risk of developing atherosclerosis due to the high level of the bad cholesterol. The risk of developing osteoporosis may also occur, as well as the risk of developing anemia and then other related blood disorders. These aspects may matter more than losing in a rapid way some extra pounds through starving or due to the fad popular diets with great promises.

The weight loss diet pills have more dangers, especially because of the hormonal dis-balance they may induce. Besides, inducing the state of satisfaction and fullness in the body may be more dangerous than any fad diet, because of the physiological and mental implications. The dangers of the diet pills may be: intestinal tract disorders (diarrhea, constipation, etc.); fatigue and insomnia; high blood pressure and hyperactivity; headaches and vomiting. The entire body seems to bi disturbed by the negative effects of the miraculous diet pills – eye problems, fever and some other disturbances and irregularities in the well functioning process of the body. The overdoses may be extremely dangerous, being the possible cause of death, heart attacks and other serious health problems.

Taking into account these aspects, one may easily point out the dangers of the excessive weight loss dieting, of the uninspired choice of fad diets or diet pills without having the recommendation and assistance of a health care provider, nutritionist or dietitian. The main idea that will help you avoiding all these nightmare scenarios and dangers is to consult your health care provider in the first place before choosing a weight loss diet plan. The most extraordinary results of a healthy weight loss diet plan include some relevant changes in the lifestyle, providing the desired weight loss maintenance on long term period.
