Does dieting or cutting calories always help ?

If you are looking at loosing weight by simply cutting your calorie intake. Expert says it is not enough to prompt significant weight loss. This has been point of debate. According to research focused on a overweight monkeys at the Oregon National Primate Research Center were fed to a high-fat diet for several years before a switch to standard monkey food, with 30 per cent fewer calories. Thereafer monkeys' weight and activity levels were tracked over a month. This group of monkeys showed much less than expected weight loss but this group also showed reduced activity. The reason could be lowering of BMR or activation of alternating biochemical pathways to reduce calorie expenditure. Further reduction of physical activity marked that why low calories diet fail to reduce weight.
Only monkeys fed standard food who also ran on a treadmill for an hour every day lost a significant amount of weight.

In a similar study at Mediplex Weight Loss Institute, we found that people who are only dieting through other dieticians tend to be lethargic and less motivated to do exercise. They were loosing less weight than people who were undergoing our complete program which includes yoga, exercise, meditation, machines, as well as special diet plan which was varying every third day. Patients of this group felt healthier and happy: more motivated and lost more weight than inactive group.
