Strict Diet Claims Russian Bodybuilder’s Life
When it comes to bodybuilding, diets are included. And while they may vary, strict diets are hard to come by especially if your body system is not used to it. Such was the case for this 25 year old bodybuilder who died after falling ill days after winning a bodybuilding competition.
The cause of death was said to be renal insufficiency. While the true cause could not be divulged, all leads point to his strict diet regimen which may have been too much to bear.
“Any diet is a huge stress for the human organism. Especially when the diet is so strict. Extreme physical activities and dehydration of the organism in a combination with a high protein diet could easily provoke severe renal insufficiency. However, it is quite difficult to say for sure what really caused the athlete’s death, because he did not turn to medical specialists as soon as he felt ill,” says Natalia Tiugaeva, a Healthcare Ministry official in the Penza region said.
So be careful when going on a diet. Your intent is good but it is likewise safer to make sure that your body can take the strains of diets and routine exercises. Be wiser and get to know your limitations when it comes to pumping iron and staying fit.
