Description
Summary:According to The World Obesity Federation's 2023 atlas, a global study predicts that more than half the global population will be living with overweight and obesity issues by the year 2035 if prevention, treatment, and support do not improve. Having an ideal body weight is a dream for every person. However, not everyone is naturally blessed with a metabolism that can effortlessly maintain their desired weight. For many individuals, achieving and maintaining a healthy body weight is a real struggle that requires conscious effort and a comprehensive approach. In the pursuit of an ideal body weight, various diet strategies have been suggested for individuals striving to achieve their weight loss objectives, including the keto diet, carbohydrate-restricted diet, fat-restricted diet, high-protein diet, Mediterranean diet, and intermittent fasting. However, the fundamental principle behind weight loss is quite straightforward: to achieve weight loss, you need to consume fewer calories than you burn. This principle forms the foundation of calorie counting, whereby individuals track their daily caloric intake and aim to maintain a consistent deficit over time.
