Following a very low calorie diet is the best way to lose weight

While cutting calories might help weight loss, doing so too severely can result in metabolic disorders and long-term health effects.

Even while starting a very low-calorie diet will probably result in quick weight loss over the short term, maintaining a very low-calorie diet over the long term lowers metabolic rate, increases feelings of hunger, and changes hormones that signal fullness. This makes maintaining weight over the long term more challenging. This is why research has revealed that low-calorie dieters have a difficult time successfully losing weight in the long term. Research shows that losing just 5% of your body weight can have a positive impact on your health.
