The World Health Organization pointed out that “obesity is a chronic disease”. Compared with healthy weight people, obese people have more than 3 times the risk of developing diabetes, metabolic syndrome and dyslipidemia, and 2 times higher risk of developing high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, knee arthritis and gout. double the risk. Many people worry about health problems and start to lose weight, exercise, and make up their minds to “eat less and exercise more”, but they can’t lose weight? Cardiac surgeon Lin Bohan, who has more than ten years of fitness experience in Chiayi Rongzong, revealed a little-known secret.

Lin Bohan said that the reason why “eating less and exercising more” failed to lose weight is that these two things are fundamentally contradictory; because eating less often leads to nutritional imbalances, which restricts the body’s physiological function and leads to fat loss. This may cause other physical problems, which also leads to the “yo-yo effect” in which many people lose weight, but lose weight more and more.

Lin Bohan said that “building muscle” and “reducing fat” are fundamentally two different things! To increase muscle mass, you need to consume more calories than your body can consume per day (TDEE); on the contrary, to lose excess body fat, you need to eat less, so you must satisfy both “balanced nutrition” and “Low-glycemic diet” these two principles.

Lin Bohan used the comparison between a little hamster and a groundhog. Before the winter, the little hamster will hoard a large amount of food in the nest, and when winter comes, it will slowly eat up the food and survive the winter. Groundhogs, on the other hand, will eat a lot before winter, allowing their bodies to accumulate a large amount of fat, and enter hibernation when winter comes, reducing their body’s energy consumption and surviving the cold winter.

Lin Bohan explained that small hamsters hoard food to survive the winter, so they eat a balanced diet in winter to keep their body fat rate at a certain standard; on the other hand, groundhogs hoard a large amount of fat in a short period of time to make their bodies fat, and then eat less to keep their body fat. Lowering metabolism to survive the cold winter is generally thin, but repeated fat and thin in groundhogs will cause constant inflammation in the body, which will be a big burden on the body.

Lin Bohan emphasized that gaining weight is not equal to gaining muscle, and losing weight is not equal to losing weight. The key lies in excess body fat. If excess body fat can be eliminated in a short period of time, and the body fat rate returns to normal, you can stay away from the three highs, prevent cardiovascular diseases, and even reduce inflammation, and may also greatly reduce the risk of cancer caused by obesity.
