Doctors Reveal The Damage That 1 Day Of Thanksgiving Food Can Do
Huff PostLiliboas via Getty Images For once, some mostly good news. Here’s the good news: Dr. Sean P. Heffron, a cardiologist at NYU Langone Health, said that it’s highly unlikely that one meal is going to negatively impact long-term heart health. “Pay attention to how you feel and enjoy the pleasure of eating.” Dr. Chelsea Wiltjer Yost, an internal medicine doctor specializing in bariatric surgery patient care and an assistant professor at Emory University School of Medicine, said that if someone who maintains a calorie deficit the majority of the time goes into Thanksgiving with no rules, it’s unlikely they will gain back the weight they lost. Echoing Heffron, she said that people with chronic diseases such as heart failure, high blood pressure or diabetes especially need to follow their doctor’s dietary recommendations, including during the holiday season. But Dr. Ragui Sadek, a bariatric surgeon and clinical assistant professor at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, said that for the average person, one meal is likely not going to impact someone’s weight long-term.
