Dieta y calorías - Side Effects

Nombres alternativos

Calorías en la dieta

Efectos secundarios:

  • Una dieta inapropiada (dieta de moda) puede llevar a un nuevo aumento de peso.
  • Una imagen del cuerpo alterada está asociada con anorexia nerviosa o bulimia.
  • Las dietas excesivamente bajas en calorías se consideran peligrosas y no producen pérdida de peso saludable. Un método más aconsejable para bajar de peso es uno que sea moderado en calorías y que fomente el ejercicio rutinario.
  • Los niños y los adultos jóvenes no deben limitar el consumo de calorías por debajo de las porciones diarias recomendadas, porque necesitan cierta cantidad de calorías para su crecimiento y desarrollo. Con frecuencia, los mejores hábitos alimentarios para toda la familia logran la disminución calórica que se requiere para que un niño o un adulto joven alcancen el peso deseado.
