From protein powders to fat-burning belts, everything is available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, do these diets deliver what they promise? Is it even possible to lose that much weight just by drinking tea?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">So if the weight loss industry has been promising unrealistic results, why do people still run after these magic pills?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u2022 People love the quicker route<\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Today, all humans are so immersed in their work lives that we hardly have any time to spend on ourselves. Unfortunately, it means that our bodies end up suffering the most. Sitting in one place for hours or unable to form a proper workout schedule, many people choose the easier way for faster results, such as keto dietary pills or machines that guarantee fat loss. According to a study, 52% of people in the age group of 20-35 living in big cities agree they don\u2019t have time for exercising, and they\u2019d rather spend that time on something else.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u2022 We want unrealistically fast results<\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Because we\u2019re in the habit of wanting everything served ASAP, people are much more inclined towards crash diets that guarantee 10 kgs per month instead of balanced healthy meals with exercising that can quickly shed 2-3 kgs but in a much better and money-saving manner.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u2022 The word \u2018healthy\u2019 has become overused<\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We live in a time when all brands want a piece of the cake that is weight loss campaigning. From marketing their oil as the \u2018healthier alternative, oatmeal biscuits containing just about 5% oats, digestive biscuits having even lesser fibre to \u2019healthy\u2019 noodles can be made in two minutes. Today we can smoothly enter any store and find something with the \u2018good for health\u2019 label on it. Unfortunately, this word gets used so much that people have forgotten its real meaning. With their fast-paced lives, nobody has time to fact-check these claims, and with the belief that they\u2019re doing something good for their body, they\u2019re consuming unhealthy foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The truth is, 80% of our health and fitness relies on physical activity, and only 20% does on the food we consume. 0% can be achieved by those pills and teas and powders that promise a new and beautiful you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">People have become susceptible to such lies because it is a much easier and happier solution than strenuous efforts, and companies are just giving us what we\u2019re buying.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Indian weight loss industry is full of miraculous pills and magical teas that will help you lose 4 kilograms worth of weight in just a month, all while tasting delicious.
