Will hunger helps to reduce your weight?

Many people try to lose weight by fasting. Can really eating less than what your body requires help to reduce your body weight? Not necessarily, according to experts.On the contrary it may increase your weight if you fast over a prolong period.

They claim the body system has a way to to interpret the signals send by the digestive system to mean that the body is low in reserve of nourishment when you are hungry. Therefore the body will be all geared up to absorb as much nutrition as possible when you next consume any food, nothing will go to waste. What a horrible story! So to say, the more hungry you are, the more nutrition will be absorbed and stored as reserve in your body, thus building up fats and protein all over your body. Your body weight will shoot up like no body's business.

So next time you want to embark on a crash fasting diet program think twice before you do it.
