Keto Diet and Myth

Keto diet has become very popular to maintain a good figure! But do we actually know the whole truth?

News of the death of an Indian actress due to renal failure as a result of Keto diet has been circulating on Facebook since this morning. At present, Dr. Jahangir Kabir's Keto Diet has become very popular in Bangladesh as well. The reason why this diet is so popular is that you can lose weight in a very short time. Dr. Jahangir Kabir is undoubtedly benefiting many and many are benefiting from it. But many people do not know who will do this diet, for how long, at what age they can do it, who can't do it etc. As a result, many are blindly imitating and endangering their own health.

Let me first share a real fact. My friend was a bit overweight compared to Height. Who doesn't want to look beautiful in a lehenga before marriage! But she chose the Keto diet to lose weight in such a short time. As a result, a lot of weight was lost. After a few months of dieting, her side effects include hair loss, headache, weakness, nausea, constipation, and irritable mood. Shee stopped the Keto diet as his health was deteriorating. But by then anorexia or loss of appetite occurs. That means she can't eat like before even if she wants to. The elegance of the look was completely ruined. In the meantime, she left the country with her husband. A few days later she missed her period date, normally she took a pregnancy test but the test came back negative. I thought if I waited for a while, there would be a period. One more month goes by but the period is not. Needless to say, she was a regular menstruating person, never having any hormonal issues. Who says full fit. One day, she lost consciousness and was rushed to a hospital. Examination after admission showed anemia, slight variations in electrolytes, low levels of vitamin D, and hormonal problems. When the physician there took her history, she said that a year ago she followed the keto diet and gave up after 6 months, but now she can't eat regular food even if she wants to. The doctor asks him if she has followed the chart of a nutritionist. Because dieting with the advice of a nutritionist should not be such a problem. However, she was later referred to a nutritionist. She was able to conceive after about 6 months of taking advice, diet and various medicines there. It was delivered a few days ago. It would be hard to believe, but even though she became fat in pregnancy, her former beauty is returning to normal. Being a doctor,s he always shared with me what to do or not to do. She is now discouraging everyone who started the Keto diet from her advice.

A person can be obese for many reasons. Just not eating too much or not working hard is not the cause of obesity. For example, hormonal problems, polycystic ovary syndrome in girls, clinical depression, genetic factors, various metabolic diseases, taking certain medications for a long time, etc. can cause obesity. Our body is like an engine. As the engine runs on fuel or oil, so does our body. And our fuel is "glucose", which comes mainly from carbohydrates. When the body does not get carbohydrates or sugars, it builds energy by breaking down fats as an alternative route. This is an alternative pathway to break down fat and create energy. This means you force your body to take an alternative route without eating carbs. Our body then breaks down fat to make ketone body. We lose weight fast because of breaking down fat. But if this ketone body is made more than normal for any reason, it can lead to death.

Suppose you have a car and a truck. Can you carry the two at equal distances with equal oil? Can't! Because the amount of oil a private car needs to go the same distance is more than a truck needs. Our body is just like that. How much energy a person needs daily, how much to eat will not match with another. That's why nutritionists create different charts according to everyone's needs. You may be wondering how fast the heroes and heroines of the movie lose weight! To find out, the heroes and heroines of the movie do not follow the diet chart obtained from the internet. They have their own nutritionists, personal trainers who monitor his health all the time. Because of this they lose weight but do not lose their glow. They do not allow deficiency of vitamins and minerals.

Dr. Jahangir Kabir is a soft-spoken, humble man. But some of his blind fans are very angry. Criticizing this diet, they even started personal attacks. So many people remain silent knowingly. And with this opportunity, a lot of misinformation was given to the groups of his followers, misguided. Due to which the health of a large population is at risk. Hair loss, weakness, anemia, nausea, loss of appetite, hormonal problems as a result of keto diet are common now. Many are getting sick and stopping but its long term effects are going away. To lose weight, reduce carbohydrates, use honey as an alternative to sugar, soft drinks, avoid fried burns, walk regularly, exercise. If that doesn't work, take a diet chart from a professional nutritionist. Staying healthy is more important than drying. One more thing to keep in mind,

There is nothing too good to be true. 🙂
