Diets Always Fail: How Calorie Restriction CAUSES Weight Gain

Long time, no see, my friends! As promised (a really long time ago), it is time to revisit the subject of evidence-based weight loss. Today we're taking a dive into the metabolic-slowing effects of PURPOSEFUL restriction of calorie intake, recommended by virtually every weight-loss diet program in the world.

Somehow--despite literally billions of failed calorie restriction attempts--marketing departments trying to sell the public weight loss plans still promote purposeful calorie restriction even though ample clinical evidence is available to prove that such diets slow the metabolism and prime the body to regain as much fat tissue as possible once extra calories again become available. Wow, that was a long sentence pointing out a lot of bullshit.
