An amazing figure: more than 70% of patients who consult a dietitian to lose weight permanently have already followed, at least, a diet without support. And because of this lack of follow-up , many people are now experiencing the famous "yo-yo" effect .
Result : the pounds accumulate , and by going to the dietician , patients have an average goal of 11kg less!
The BVA study conducted for Ducros shows that more than 9 dieticians out of 10 think that herbs and spices can have a role to play in a diet ...
Why is it difficult for us to follow a diet?
Specific expectations
The result of this survey is that patient expectations are often multiple . Indeed, among them, we note that:
- 80% above all wish to have simplicity in the monitoring of the regime
- 65% advocate speed in weight loss
- 61% want to maintain the pleasure of eating .
To note : for 60% , the maintenance of a "normal" social life is important, and more than 50% seek conviviality .
Important brakes
For 75% of respondents, weight loss is not fast enough. And for 74% of them, the entourage is not very conducive to the follow - up of a diet ... Here are the 2 points handicapping the patients!
Other brakes: lack of pleasure and taste (36%), loss of social life (35%), an altered social life (35%), too severe dietary restrictions (34%) and the price of consultations and food deemed too expensive (34%)
Lack of benchmarks and accompaniment
Beyond the monitoring of the regime, the problem of the "yo-yo" effect is to be underlined.
External solicitation (65%), lack of support from others (56%) and lack of original, balanced, tasty and well-liked recipes (54%) are the main factors that make it difficult for patients to maintaining their weight.
Dieticians are overwhelmingly convinced of the role that people can play in a diet . ( 97% of respondents agree).
Restrictive diets often cause a feeling of frustration ... So why not decorate his little dishes of herbs and spices to bring them flavor?
The taste provided by herbs and spices gives appetite to dishes, offers more variety in recipes and helps to eat less salty.
It may be the solution to change your lifestyle to lose weight gradually but lasting ...
