Can you please tell me why it'sbetter to eat healthier and not just eat less when losing weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Micronutrients: Weight loss, healing, recovery, growth and pregnancy are nutritionally expensive. You need the vitamins and minerals as well as the protein. So dropping calories also drops micro-nutrients. Taking a multivitamin tablet, eating foods containing micro-nutrients will help. The phrase empty calories refers to the lack of micro-nutrients. Be well.
