Is exercise the best course of treatment for obesity?
Is exercise the best course of treatment for obesity?
If you’re working hard to lose weight, but the scale refuses to budge, it might be because you believe in a weight loss myth that’s holding you back. If you are one of the1.5 billion people around the world who suffers from obesity, you’ll want to learn more about a new report authored by Dr. Krista Casazza from the University of Alabama and published in Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition that’s out to bust a bevy of common weight loss myths.

Myths about dieting and the dieter’s mindset

If you’ve always believed that slow and steady weight loss that targets a reasonable goal is the best way to shed pounds, you’re wrong. According to ABC News, Dr. Casazza’s research finds that “a quick fix fad diet can jump start weight loss by boosting confidence and motivation,” as long as the diet is healthy and incorporates weight training to build muscle mass.

Additionally, the more pounds you aim to drop, the better. It’s okay to be “unreasonable” and “ambitious” in your goals, since this mindset often generates innovative thinking about weight loss for the dieter. Dr. Casazza also encourages daily weigh-ins. It’s long been suspected that dieters are disappointed when they fail to see the scale move, but in fact, those incremental weight changes are what motivate dieters to keep going.

Myths about dieting and your genes

Dr. Casazza says that genes matter when it comes to weight loss but not necessarily in the way that the media has reported it. She says that “your genes may be influenced by epigenetics, a process that affects the way genes express themselves in the environment they face. It’s also possible to pass these epigenetic alterations down through the generations.” Your ancestors can actually help you as you begin a new diet and exercise routine as those good genes “turn on” during the dieting and exercising process.

Myths about Diet and Where You Live

Dr. Casazza finds that food deserts, those areas that lack local access to fresh fruits and veggies, aren’t to blame if you can’t lose weight. Other areas where fruits and veggies are available also have vast populations of overweight residents.
