On the 30th, JTBC 'Please Take Care of My Refrigerator' unveiled the refrigerator and diet of Cha Jun-hwan, who won the gold medal for the first time in Korean men's figure skating at the 9th Harbin Winter Asian Games.
Cha Jun-hwan, who has to do high-level jumps and spins, is reportedly 180 centimeters tall and weighs 63 kilograms. Cha Jun-hwan previously appeared on JTBC 'Knowing Brother' and tvN entertainment 'You Quiz on the Block' and said he was keeping a light vegetables-oriented diet such as protein in the morning and evening and cabbage, cucumber, and tomato at lunch. He added that he systematically changed his diet, increasing muscle strength and reducing body fat compared to the Beijing Olympics.
On the 30th, Cha Jun-hwan confessed that he rarely eats carbohydrates and eats them when he is physically too tired, even on his diet, which was even released on the 30th 'Cold Sea'Chill Sea', 'Sharing small sunlight air with his mother','Penne pasta is roasted in perilla oil and eats only about 10 grains'
This low-carb diet is effective for short-term weight loss and blood sugar control.
A low-carb diet typically involves avoiding sugary drinks, confectionery, grains, and starchy foods, aiming to consume less than 10% of the calories consumed per day or 20 to 50 g of carbohydrate. Instead, it is to increase the intake of protein and fat that can help increase satiety and suppress appetite.
However, several studies have shown that it is difficult to sustain a low-carb diet for a long time.
In addition, increasing fat intake instead of carbohydrates increases the burden of increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, compared to the chitogenic diet, which dramatically reduces carbohydrates to less than 5% and increases fat percentage, Cha Jun-hwan has somewhat reduced concerns about cardiovascular health with a protein-oriented diet rather than fat.
In addition, there are concerns that a long-term low-carb diet can lead to essential nutrient deficiencies, especially a lack of dietary fiber, which can negatively affect intestinal health. The fact that Cha Jun-hwan's lunch is mainly composed of vegetables complements this point.
Experts stress that while a low-carb diet may be effective in weight loss and blood sugar control, there is a need for sufficient research on its long-term health effects. Therefore, it is recommended to choose an appropriate diet according to the individual's health status and goals after consultation with an expert.
