CAN THE STEREOTYPE “IT WORKS IF I DRINK WATER” BE TRUE?

In addition, genetic predisposition, insulin resistance, hypoglycemia, stress, hormonal disorders (growth hormone, thyroid, pituitary and adrenal gland problems) are also factors that trigger obesity.

Turkey Medicals member and Aesthetic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Specialist Op. Dr. gave information about the issue.

Unfortunately, the predisposition of overweight children to diseases such as diabetes, heart and coronary vascular diseases, hypertension and cancer at an early age is also increasing in the future, if precautions are not taken.

The main problem is that adipose tissue increases, which leads to the problem of excess weight. Therefore, it will be the most correct option to prevent overweight in time with measures such as regular and balanced nutrition, sports activities.

Although they say that they pay attention to their nutrition, there are always those who say that they gain weight even on the smallest getaways. These people describe their condition as “It works if I drink water” and complain about it.
