Healthy intestinal flora Losing weight without the yo-yo effect is actually possible?
Permanently losing weight is only possible if we stop the colonization of the intestine and thus an existing intestinal dysbiosis. This can not be done overnight. It always takes several months of diet management and bowel therapy to restore true gut symbiosis and the successful stimulation of fat burning. Only a supply of high-quality fats such as gamma-linolenic acid and non-animal protein with L-arginine as well as well-tolerated fiber can restore intestinal health and thus permanently reduce weight.
By contrast, crash diets are counterproductive and jeopardize health. Burkhard Poeggeler, Scientific Advisory Board of the Foundation for Health and Environment (SfGU) & University Teacher at the Georg August University of Göttingen and the Goettingen Research Campus.
Why diets do not work?
Perhaps the biggest challenge in dieting is keeping weight down. The usual crash diets work on the principle of the Bikini Emergency Plan: In the short term, you can lose a lot of pounds, but in the long run, this even leads to a further weight gain with all the dangerous consequences for the health of those affected and even serious complications. That's the diet trap.

A diet should be maintained for at least 6 to 12 months, because only then can a conversion of the intestinal biota be achieved - with the degradation of responsible for the overweight of those affected intestinal dysbiosis and fatty liver. Normally, many diets initially lead to a great success, but then reversed quite brutally in the opposite. Diets are often a one-way street.
What is crucial to success?
It is important to switch to a low-calorie but nutrient-rich diet - naturally, permanently and holistically. It is about avoiding a nutrient deficiency situation. Because when you reduce the calorie intake, the nutrient density of the food must increase at the same time, so that as many or more nutrients are consumed in order to stimulate and optimize the fat burning.
How can I lose weight permanently??
Helpful here is always a professional advice and support. This avoids fatal mistakes and at the same time gives you more motivation to keep up. A successful colon cleansing can lay the basis for a permanent weight reduction here. This is to be combined with a professional diet management. Only in this way can you really lose weight permanently and thus restore your health or ensure it in the long term.
What's the dreaded yo-yo effect?
The yo-yo effect is associated with almost all diets and very difficult to get to grips with. No sooner have you dropped the pounds than they come back and this time even stronger than before. That's how we ended up in the diet trap. And it's hard to escape from that. It is also very dangerous to our health and therefore many diets are not only inappropriate but even counterproductive.
How to avoid the yo-yo effect?
The yo-yo effect comes about because diets limit the calorie intake and thus signal a famine to the body. He then unscrews the basal metabolic rate, so burns fewer calories. As soon as we eat normally again, we increase again - sometimes even more when we lose weight. Only if we absorb enough nutrients, such as L-arginine, gamma-linolenic acid and L-carnitine, we can avoid this effect.
How can I keep my weight?
Crash diets a la Bikini emergency plan mess up the metabolism and are not suitable for long-term weight loss. Rather, you should reduce the intake of calories and carbohydrates. This goes with more protein and fiber as well as the healthy fats, so especially the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Fat makes you fit. High quality protein makes you nice and slim. Fiber makes you full and healthy.
What is particularly important here?
Especially non-animal protein with a high level of L-arginine stimulates metabolism, muscles and mitochondria. L-Arginine also stimulates the intestinal cells and promotes colonization by beneficial None in the intestine. High-quality fats and fiber fill us up and regulate the blood sugar level as well as the insulin distribution positively. So you give the Jojo effect no chance.
Why is gut health so crucial?
Digestion takes place there. Only a healthy gut can supply us with sufficient nutrients. The symbionts in the intestines feed, maintain and renew us. Happy and healthy - that's possible without sacrificing enjoyment. But you need patience and serenity as well as a lot of discipline. The intestinal health can be renewed only with targeted therapies and thus fight the dangerous fatty liver with the same.
What shall we do?
Basically, we have to stop the metabolic disorders permanently and this is only possible by restoring intestinal health and thus ensuring the supply of nutrients. Fat burning is only possible with a healthy intestinal biota. That's why we need to be very consistent and consistent. Only in this way can we achieve a successful weight reduction and maintain it throughout our lives.
