Low-calorie diets trigger the emergence of gallstones - People who do a low calorie diet (or so-called Crash Diet) are known to be at risk of having gallstones, according to recent research.

It was discovered by researchers from the Mayo Clinic. They explained that the extreme calorie restriction did not provide better results for the people who go on a diet. In the end, the amount of weight lost is almost the same as those who restrict calories naturally.

"If ultimately owned by the same weight (with people who restrict calories naturally), why trouble yourself with the extreme calorie restriction and make yourself at risk of gallstones?" said Dr. Michael Jensen of the Mayo Clinic, as reported by Reuters.

Dr. Kari Johansson, chairman of researchers and scientists from the Karolinska Institute in Sedia explains that weight loss is too fast by restricting calories excessively can affect the bile acid and cholesterol. This will empty the bile that trigger gallstones.

These results were found by investigators after observing 6,640 people who go on a diet. Half the extreme limit calories through diet Crash. Crash dieting is done by only eating 500 calories per day for six to 10 weeks. This diet compared with a low-calorie diet who consume regular 1200-1500 calories per day.

It is true that people who do Crash diets to lose weight faster. Yet many people in the group then Crash diets require care due to gallstone disease.

Even so researchers can not explain in detail why the smell of bile are appearing in people who do such an extreme low-calorie diet Crash diet. If you want to do a low-calorie diet, you should consider the risks in advance, and do not do that too extreme calorie restriction.
