How to lose fat without losing muscle?

Obesity can easily lead to coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and other diseases, as well as various complications, and accelerate aging and death

In this regard, the official WeChat account of the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention pointed out that losing weight is to lose fat, not muscle

If you are obese or severely obese, you should go to a regular hospital (don’t blindly follow advertisements to go to a weight loss store, massage parlor or beauty store on the street, let alone an online store) for an examination, and the doctor will supplement the drug or surgery according to the situation.

Obesity criteria

According to the Beijing Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the currently recognized standard for judgment is body mass index (BMI), where body mass index (BMI) = weight (kg)/height 2 (m2)

A relatively simple measurement index is waist circumference (WC).

The criteria for judging abdominal obesity (central obesity) are that the waist circumference of men is ≥90cm (ie 2 feet 7 inches), and the waist circumference of women is greater than 85cm (ie 2 feet 5 inches 5)

Eating balance and getting enough sleep

What are the correct ways to lose weight?

The Beijing disease control department suggested that on the basis of a balanced diet, control the total amount of food eaten, adopt a low-calorie, low-fat diet, high dietary fiber, and avoid high-sugar foods, so that the total daily intake of calories is lower than the consumption.

Studies have shown that the main cause of obesity is the lack of growth hormone secretion in the body

In this regard, the Beijing disease control department explained that growth hormone, referred to as HGH, is a natural hormone secreted by the human body.

　　When the human body is sleeping, the function of the body will tend to slow down, but the metabolic function will continue, and the calories stored in the body can continue to burn.
