Health experts have warned against the trend of rapid weight loss, stressing that while it may seem appealing for quick physical results, it can have deep and lasting effects on the body in both the short and long term.

He explained that rapid weight loss is not limited to cosmetic effects, but also disturbs the body’s internal balance and vital functions, leading to physiological changes that often produce the opposite of the desired outcome.

Key risks associated with rapid weight loss:

• Significant loss of muscle mass, which reduces the body’s metabolic rate.
• Increased hunger due to hormonal changes that encourage overeating.
• Higher likelihood of regaining the lost weight quickly after stopping strict dieting.

Experts highlight that these effects can create an unstable cycle of weight loss and regain, disrupting the body’s ability to maintain a healthy balance between burning and storing energy.

Specialists emphasize that the best approach is a balanced diet and a sustainable healthy lifestyle, rather than extreme methods that may deliver quick results but are unsafe in the long term.
