| Q.
Is yo-yo dieting harmful?
Yo-yo dieting (also called 'weight cycling') is certainly discouraging for weight loss, but there is no clear evidence that it is harmful. Yo-yo dieting does
not have a permanent effect on your metabolic rate, nor does it increase
the amount of fat tissue on your body. The best way to avoid yo-yo dieting is to avoid diets that result only in short-term weight loss benefits. Choose a diet that teaches you to eat right, which offers slow, steady weight loss. |
