Dieting can change a person’s life for the better or ruins one’s health completely. What is your opinion?

Almost of the women today want a beautiful figure. That is why we are able to find a diet programme almost everywhere in the country. Most of the women have and gone on a diet before either to or just health problem.

A proper diet programme will help you not only to slim down but also to have a eating habits. For instance more vegetables and fruits meat, fried food and carbonated drinks.

This programme allows you to eat fruits and also some meat. This way of dieting will help you to avoid some of the health problems in the future like or a heart attack.

However some people do not only go on a diet but they avoid eating and hungry for the whole day. All they have is just either water or juices.

  2. Nowadays people are becoming more conscious about their own health and well-being, diet programmes have become one of the more popular options in society.While some people believe that dieting can improve the quality of one’s life, others think that it only destroys one’s health.

    Dieting, judging from its original purposes, is designed to help a person to control his food consumption and to restrict the amount of a particular type of food he can consume.

    One undertake a diet programme in order to have an ideal body shape while in other situations one undertakes a diet programme as part of a medical treatment.

    Both of these purposes will definItely improve his quality of life and well-being. Having a perfect body shape will eventually lead to an increase in his level of confidence while there is no doubt that having a good diet will help a person to recover from certain illnesses.

    On the other hand, compulsive dieting can also create some new problems. Compulsive dieting, as some experts believe, can lead to malnutrition due to the lack of food quantities required by one’s body.
    Moreover, when a person does not consume enough nutrients needed to support his daily activities, such as carbohydrate and protein, this can create a lack of energy in his body which in turn will result to in a less-productive life.
    Additionally, the lack of nutrition will expose his body to some illnesses, such as hypertension and low blood pressure.

    In conclusion, I personally believe that an appropriate diet programme can help a person to improve his quality of life and bodily well-being, but only when that person follows the correct procedures.
