For well-meaning individuals hoping to improve their health by losing weight, this unwanted and unknown side-effect create a “more harm than good” situation, with unwanted potential side effects that include slowed metabolism and increased risk of chronic disease, among others. 


The good news is, there are easy-to-implement nutrition and lifestyle strategies that can mitigate this risk — all backed by scientific literature.
