It is getting easier for teenagers today to put on weight. There are a
number of reasons that make this possible. One of them is the
popularity of fast food chains as the main source of daily nourishment
for most of teenagers.
Today obesity is a growing problem faced by not only the developed countries but even by the developing countries. The reason behind this weight gain is the lifestyle of the people.
The medifast diet is a very safe and effective diet and weight loss program. The main reason
for this is because it gives enough nutrition while at the same time induces
your body into a mild fat-burning state.
What is the Fat-Burning State?
When you are on the Medifast 5 & 1 Plan, your daily calorie intake is very low at
around 800 to 1,000 calories. This causes your body to enter a fat-burning state
- a “mild ketosis”. In this state, your body’s fat releases free fatty acids, which
are transformed by the liver to an energy source - the ketones. This mild
fat-burning state helps the body achieve fast weight loss while
preserving muscle tissue. It also helps eliminate physical
hunger and provides sufficient levels of energy at the same time.
