The JoJo effect - and why it exists
ОглавлениеBut how can I boost my metabolism so that my body consumes more energy? The bad news first: a single diet over a short period of time is not enough in most cases. Radical starvation cures signal to the body that bad times are imminent, radical calorie reduction reduces energy consumption and slows down metabolism.
So if we eat normally again after a week or two of slimming, the fat pads quickly return - the dreaded yo-yo effect. The good news, however, is that a permanent change in diet and lifestyle is not so difficult and does not require as much sacrifice as two weeks of fasting. If you generally pay attention to the right diet and exercise sufficiently, it may also be a piece of cream cake or a portion of French fries - your metabolism will then be ready.
