From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Another kind of diet focuses not on the dieter's health effects, but on its environment. The One Blue Dot plan of the BDA[1] offers recommendations towards reducing diets' environmental impacts, by:

"The glycemic index (GI) factor is a ranking of foods based on their overall effect on blood sugar levels. The diet based around this research is called the Low GI diet. Low glycemic index foods, such as lentils, provide a slower, more consistent source of glucose to the bloodstream, thereby stimulating less insulin release than high glycemic index foods, such as white bread."[2][3]

Adverse Effects

[edit]

Increased Mortality Rate

[edit]

A number of studies have found that intentional weight loss is associated with an increase in mortality in people without weight-related health problems.[4][5][6][7] A 2009 meta-analysis of 26 studies found that "intentional weight loss had a small benefit for individuals classified as unhealthy (with obesity-related risk factors), especially unhealthy obese, but appeared to be associated with slightly increased mortality for healthy individuals, and for those who were overweight but not obese."[8]

Dietary Supplements

[edit]

Due to extreme or unbalanced diets, dietary supplements may be needed. They are able to provide the vitamins, minerals, herbs or other supplements that may be missing from an unbalanced diet. While they could be very helpful to maintain a healthy lifestyle with an unbalanced diet, supplements are medications that can't be overused. Overdosing on any dietary supplement can cause a range of side effects depending on which supplement was taken.[9]

Eating disorders

[edit]

In an editorial for Psychological Medicine, George Hsu concludes that dieting is likely to lead to the development of an eating disorder in the presence of certain risk factors.[10] A 2006 study found that dieting and unhealthy weight-control behaviors were predictive of obesity and eating disorders five years later, with the authors recommending a "shift away from dieting and drastic weight-control measures toward the long-term implementation of healthful eating and physical activity".[11]


Dr. Isbell's attempt

Due to a quick change within one's diet or if a diet is unbalanced, dietary supplements may be needed. They are able to provide the vitamins, minerals, herbs and other things that may be missing from an unbalanced diet. While they could be very helpful to maintain a healthy lifestyle with an unbalanced diet, supplements are medications that can't be overused. Overdosing on any dietary supplement can cause a range of side effects depending on which one was taken.[9]
