In recent years, "Bigu" has attracted wide attention on the Internet as a way to lose weight. However, it is not simply "not eating", but a way of health that needs to be treated with caution. Let's explore the risks behind Bigu through a case study.
"Bigu, it's amazing! You don't need to exercise, you can lose weight as long as you control your diet!" Xiao Ling listened to her colleague's introduction and decided to give it a try. 36-year-old Xiaoling (pseudonym), an office worker, was also attracted by the "Bigu" weight loss method circulating on the Internet
At the beginning of August, Xiaoling began her "Bigu" practice. According to the information she found on the Internet, "Bigu" means that you don't eat any substantial food and only drink water, which can greatly reduce weight. As a result, Xiaoling's only "food" every day is water.
After 39 days of hard work, the "Bigu" came to an end. Xiaoling was happy to find that her weight had been reduced from 75kg to 50kg. She felt that this was a great success, and in order not to rebound, she decided to continue the way of "Bigu" and only eat porridge every day.
However, things didn't go according to Xiaoling's plan.
11 days after the end of "Bigu", Xiaoling suddenly developed a serious disorder of consciousness and finally passed away. This left her family and friends shocked and puzzled.
The results of the autopsy at the hospital revealed the shocking truth: Xiaoling's body was severely malnourished and organ failure. Her brain tissue was shattered, and her heart, liver, kidneys, and other organs were corrupted and softened.
All this is because Xiaoling misunderstood the meaning of "Bigu".
"Bigu" is not to eat no food at all, but a reasonable way to control your diet. In ancient times, "Bigu" meant stopping the intake of grains, but still ingesting foods that are homologous to medicine and food, such as Chinese herbal medicines, fruits, vegetables and a small amount of protein, to maintain the health of the body.
Nowadays, "bigu" refers more to stopping foods that are high in calories, salt, and sugar, but still need to consume essential nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals.
Although "Bigu" can effectively reduce weight, if it is taken in an extreme and unreasonable way, it will bring great harm to the body. A constant state of starvation can lead to severe malnutrition, leading to gradual failure of organ function and eventually life-threatening. So, what is the right thing to do?
Bigu, in fact, is a way to control your diet, but it is not to eat nothing. The correct way to avoid foods that are high in calories, salt and sugar is to avoid eating at all. During the Bigu period, you should consume enough water and supplement some foods that are homologous to medicine and food, such as fruits, vegetables and a small amount of protein. In this way, the burden on the body can be reduced and the purpose of health care can be achieved.
The main benefits of Bigu are to reduce the burden on the body, help cardiovascular health and promote metabolism. By avoiding irritating foods, you can reduce the level of triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood, reduce the burden on blood vessels, and prevent cardiovascular diseases. Before going to Bigu, you must know the right way to do it, avoid extreme behaviors, and protect your health.
Excessive grain reclamation can lead to severe malnutrition. The body needs a variety of nutrients to function properly, including proteins, vitamins, minerals, and fats. If you only drink water or do not consume enough nutrients for a long time, the body may not be able to obtain essential nutrients, resulting in impaired function of various organs and systems, and even organ failure.
Secondly, excessive bigu can affect the body's metabolism. The body's metabolism needs adequate energy and nutrient support, and if you are starved for a long time, your metabolism will become slow, leading to the accumulation of toxins in the body and impaired cell function.
In addition, excessive biguing may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Starvation may cause the body to release some harmful substances, such as cysteine, which increases the risk of blood clotting and vascular damage, and increases the incidence of myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction.
The harm to health caused by excessive valley reclamation is very serious. The right way to eat is to have a balanced intake of various nutrients, maintain a healthy weight and metabolic state, and avoid extreme eating behaviors. Protecting your health is more important than any weight loss.
Bigu is not divided into specific seasons, but is a phased way of dietary adjustment. The purpose of Bigu is to reduce the burden on the body, remove toxins from the body, and promote good health.
When choosing the timing of Bigu, you can consider the individual's physical condition and lifestyle habits. Generally speaking, Bigu can choose different time periods according to individual needs, such as spring, summer, autumn or winter. Depending on the season, the way of bigu may be adjusted to suit the needs of the environment and the body.
However, it is important to note that Bigu is not suitable for everyone and all seasons. Especially for pregnant women, children, the elderly, or people with underlying medical conditions, you should consult your doctor before Bigu to avoid causing physical discomfort or health problems.
Bigu is a measured diet that can be done at a time that is appropriate for individual needs and physical condition, but it needs to be treated with caution to ensure good health and safety.
