Doctor named contraindications for weight loss diets

A sudden change in one's usual diet can harm health, especially if a person has chronic diseases. Gastroenterologist Natalia Borovskaya issued this warning.

As reported by BAKU.WS, the expert drew attention to the fact that as spring approaches, many people begin actively losing weight by resorting to various diets. According to her, such nutritional experiments are not suitable for everyone and have clear contraindications.

The doctor specified that people with chronic gastrointestinal diseases, kidney pathologies, endocrine disorders, and metabolic imbalances are in the risk group. Additionally, strict dietary restrictions are unacceptable during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in childhood.

The specialist emphasized that before starting any diet, it is necessary to consult with a doctor and objectively assess the body's condition. Otherwise, the pursuit of a slim figure may result in exacerbation of existing diseases and the development of serious complications.
