NOTE

Rethink Weight Loss: Quality Over Quantity

Obesity is primarily driven by components of the westernized diet, such as refined carbohydrates, sugars, and seed oils. To effectively lose weight, one should focus on eliminating these elements rather than just reducing their intake. Weight loss is associated with a reduction in obesity-related inflammatory markers, underscoring its health benefits. However, traditional dietary strategies, like calorie restriction or programs like Weight Watchers, fail to address the underlying issues of diet quality. This results in poor long-term success rates for weight maintenance, with studies showing a low probability of obese individuals achieving or sustaining normal weight. The solution lies in improving the quality of food consumed to achieve meaningful and lasting weight loss.
