Myths About Body Weight
It is a fact that obesity is unhealthy. But it doesn't mean that being thin is healthy. In fact, the world around us overplayed the 'slim' card and this has circulated several myths about body weight.
Tips To Lose Face Fat Naturally
Yes, obesity can cause several problems like diabetes, cancer and heart problems. But it doesn't mean that you can embrace any unhealthy method to lose weight fast. Also, a little bit of extra weight is not always harmful.
Generally, those who are obsessed with looks would try for a size zero figure. As the world around us has propagated certain ideas about beauty, health and slimness, more people are buying into 'thinness', without looking at the consequences.
10 Symptoms Of Fat Malabsorption
In this post, let us discuss about certain myths about body weight.
BMI
Though BMI is a good way to determine whether you need to gain weight or lose weight, it isn't an accurate representation of your actual health status. The calculations of BMI do not consider several factors like your physical frame or fitness levels. Also, if you are gaining weight through muscles, these calculations may misguide you by concluding that you are obese.
All Fat Is Bad
This is another one of the weight loss myths. We believe that fat is totally bad and that is why we constantly try to lose weight. In fact certain amount of fat is important for us to remain healthy.
Extra Weight
Though obesity is unhealthy, as many say, a few extra kilos are not always bad. A study claims that the slightly overweight people enjoy more chances of survival after surgeries compared to underweight people.
Slimness
Most of us blindly believe that being slim means being healthy. Your health depends upon many factors apart from body weight. A thin person having visceral fat may suffer the risk of several health problems.
Losing Weight
This is one of the myths about weight loss. Some people opine that losing weight is always good irrespective of the methods you choose. This is a myth because if you choose unhealthy ways to lose weight fast, there could even be life threatening consequences.
