For many people who pay attention to body management, weight loss is an eternal topic, and weight loss methods are varied. In addition to more exercise, a reasonable diet is also one of the effective ways to lose weight. In daily life, we often hear that "drinking skim milk can slim down" "drinking yogurt can lose weight" and other statements, whether these statements really have scientific basis? Kai Zhong, Director of Kexin Food and Nutrition Information Exchange Center, answered this question.
"Skim milk", as the name suggests, is to remove the fat of the milk, a more professional explanation is to remove the fat in the normal raw milk through the processing process, so that its content is less than 1/7 of the fat of ordinary milk. Compared with whole milk, the fat content of skim milk is less than 0.5%, so in many people's eyes, the fat content is less means that it will not get fat, so as to achieve the purpose of slimming.
But in fact, "drinking skim milk can slim down" this claim does not hold up scientifically. Zhong Kai said that because skim milk after the fat is removed, the energy substances or nutrients in it will also be lost, so the consumption rate of skim milk is also faster, and it is easier to make people hungry. The fat and calories contained in whole milk will make people feel fuller and can provide energy for a long time, making them do not want to eat other foods in a short time, which is more conducive to controlling energy intake.
In addition, after degreasing milk will become thin, and will lose the aroma of alcohol, poor taste. In order to take care of the taste, some businesses need to adjust the taste through additives. Although the addition of honey or other additives will greatly improve the taste of skim milk, it will also increase the calories. Skim milk itself is safe, but if you eat fake skim milk with too many additives every day, you need to pay attention to the probability of obesity and safety risks.
Similarly, the truth about "eating yogurt can lose weight" is the same. Zhong Kai explained that the protein content of yogurt is relatively high, if yogurt is not added sugar, drinking yogurt does have certain benefits for weight loss and muscle gain. However, if you feel that sugar-free yogurt is too sour and add sugar or honey when eating, it will not achieve the effect of weight loss. So drinking yogurt to lose weight this statement is also unscientific.
"The real scientific way to lose weight is a reasonable diet plus exercise, which is simply four words: eat dynamic balance." Zhong Kai said that "eating" is the intake of energy, "moving" is the consumption of energy, as long as the consumption of energy is slightly more than the intake of energy, then naturally you can lose weight. More exercise combined with a reasonable diet, such weight loss is a healthy way to lose weight.
