Physicians should carefully, to think before they put patients on a diet, warn U.S. scientists.Researchers from the University California San Francisco and University of Minnesota followed 121 women who followed a diet where she spent three weeks eating 1200 calories a day. Normally they should be around 2000 calories.

After three weeks showed the amount of cortisol in their body to have increased significantly. In itself not surprising, the scientists argue, because cortisol is the body uses to increase the energy. If someone does not eat enough calories to the body with energy, the body automatically begins to make more cortisol.

According to Catherine Collins, head dietician at St George’s Hospital in London is a diet of 1200 calories is probably too heavy for the body. Better, according to her between 1500 and 1800 calories per day eating combined with regular exercise.When the cortisol levels in the body long term remains too high, can lead to high cholesterol and high blood pressure and even increase the risk of depression. “We knew that people who follow a strict diet, often victims of depression are. For many people food is equivalent to enjoy. You ask them what is actually to reduce that just makes them less stress. “
