If you decide to skip a meal, these stores are taken by your body and when they are gone, your body is looking for other nutrients for energy. It may also cause a protein breakdown because your body will have a “fasting” metabolism. This method is not very useful for the weight loss.
 3. Diet Myth: Cholesterol is not good for your health
Take as an example a low or zero-fat diet. Holesterol can be good and bad . Good cholesterol builds our cells and creates vital hormones. Bad cholesterol can make plaque in the arteries. The better choise except of having a fat-free diet (fats must compose 33% of your daily calories), is to avoid saturated fats. Also, low-fat foods don’t always contain lower calories. Always check the amount of calories on low-fat foods because sometimes in order to make the flavour better the manufacturers put more sugar.
4. Myth: Eating food late at night will make you fatter
According to the most of the diets you should not eat after a certain hour at night because you are inactive at this time and the fat can’t be burned. But in fact it is not true. The researches have proved that you can eat a large meal late at night but for that the body doesn’t store more fat. Body fat is controlled by the eaten amount 24-hour a day, and not by the daytime. Calories are just the nutrition in your food. Your body fat is nessesary but it should be appropriate for your age and build.
5. Diet Myth: The only way to lose or maintain weight is to count the calories
The proportion of the nutrients as the amount of food eaten or the total calories is also important, because your body processes various nutrients differently. The counting of calories is not a science it shows your metabolic rate. Calorie counting indicates your daily amount of calories. But it doesn’t show your resting metabolic rate, your total muscle mass. Are you an athlete or a smoker. All these factors influence the consumption of your calories per day and affect on your calorie count. The main aim is to balance burnt and consumed calories . The balance will be recognized when you deviate up or down from your ideal weight.
