Following the summer holiday period, health experts are advising against extreme detox diets or fasting to address post-vacation symptoms like bloating, constipation, and fatigue. Gastroenterologists emphasize that the digestive system does not require ‘cleansing’ but rather a gradual return to regular habits, such as consistent meal timings, adequate sleep, and physical activity. As interest in weight loss and general health improvements surges in September, nutritionists have reported significant increases in consultations, with some noting rises of 25% to 40%. While the popularity of weight-loss medications like Ozempic remains high, professionals observe that these drugs have not diminished interest in traditional dietary methods; instead, individuals are often utilizing a combination of approaches. Experts, including Lourdes de la Bastida from Quirónsalud Córdoba and nutritionist Marta Mercadal, recommend prioritizing sustainable, measurable goals—such as cooking more at home, increasing fiber, and daily physical activity—rather than focusing solely on the scale or utilizing extreme dietary regimens. Professionals emphasize that the goal should not be extreme restriction, which can lead to frustration, but rather a progressive approach focusing on balanced nutrition, improved sleep quality, and stress management to ensure long-term sustainability.
