How can diet plans be effective for some but not all individuals?
In: Biology
Depends on what the problem is for why they aren’t losing weight. Provided that the individual is following the diet perfectly, it can be a matter of the way their body metabolizes food. They could have extenuating issues, like if they are on birth control or antidepressants that cause weight gain. Or they could have thyroid issues. They could have digestion problems like diverticulitis that prevents them from retaining nutrients or doesn’t allow them to eat the foods recommended in the diet. They could also have comorbidities like diabetes that make it difficult to regulate their sugar, or health problems that make it difficult to exercise. It also could boil down to their lifestyle and finding a diet that suits it. Some people might benefit from eating lots of tiny meals throughout the day, but their job doesn’t allow for that kind of time. Maybe they can’t afford the foods required, or they have families and they can’t afford to cook a separate meal for themselves while feeding their families.
