The study warned that dieting and ignoring meals could harm overweight or obese people more than they did.

The authors of the study at the University of Helsinki found that eating regular meals is the best way to ensure a healthy weight and easier weight control later in life.

The researchers, led by Ulla Kärkkäinen, a nutritionist, collected data about 5,000 young men and women who had a questionnaire that identified the factors affecting weight and change since the beginning of the study when they were about 24 years old, 10 years later, when they were 34 years old .

The study found that most participants gained excess weight during the 10 years of study, while 7.5% of women and 3.8% of men lost weight.

Most participants gained excess weight at an average rate of 0.9 kg per year for women and 1 kg per year for men.

The team found that eating irregular food and dieting for weight loss were among the main factors that led to gaining weight in both men and women.

Women are more likely to become overweight and obese after having two or more children, drink sugary drinks regularly, and feel dissatisfied with life.

For men, smoking was an important factor in their weight gain.

The study concluded that the cornerstone of effective weight control is to refrain from dieting and controlling eating habits in both women and men.

The study shows that the important thing is not to lose weight as much as the need to focus on eating regular and adequate meals, supporting the natural functions of the natural body, and helps to manage eating habits and weight management in the long term.
