The fast pace of modern life forces a huge number of people living in megacities to refuse to eat during the day.
But by doing so they cause great harm to the body and even to their own psychological state.
Blurring of consciousness
Towards the end of a half-starved day, absent-mindedness sets in and the previous ability to work is lost.
The reason for all this is the lack of sodium, electrolytes and sugars that the body gets from food and processes into energy for the brain.
Another negative side effect is that it minimizes your physical and mental motivation, making it difficult to choose healthy foods for snacking.
Abnormal weight loss
Some people skip lunch in the hope of losing a few pounds. And their wish comes true, but not in the way they expected.
Skipping meals does indeed help you lose weight, but only if you don't make up for the "gaps" with snacks or dinner.
However, during this process, it is not subcutaneous fat deposits that will be burned, but muscles earned in the gym.
Unhealthy weight gain
The situation with weight loss in accordance with a haphazard diet also has an opposite side.
It consists in the fact that returning to the previous “settings” will be an extremely difficult task for the body.
Simply put, when you realize your mistake and start eating regularly and wisely, you will have to gain weight beyond what has already been deposited as fat.
Paleness and fragility
As practice shows, the lack of nutrients during irregular meals cannot be compensated for by taking multivitamin complexes.
After all, most vitamins are simply not absorbed due to a decrease in protein intake. As a result, the condition of the hair and skin deteriorates.
Something serious
The above-mentioned symptoms of deteriorating health are a trifle compared to the consequences of prolonged fasting.
Over time, systematically skipping meals in order to reduce fat deposits can become a habit that can lead to psychological disorders, the worst of which is anorexia.
And this is a completely different order of subsequent rehabilitation to restore healthy relationships between a person and food.
