I would bet this would not happen to someone who eats enougth calories to cope with the extra exercise. As for polyunsaturated oils, there not healthy, only the omega 3 fish oils are the exception. Other oils, like veg oil etc are more unhealthy then saturated fats. This is because the body makes hormones from saturated fats, too much polyunsaturated fat will rob you of cholestrol. People who dont exercise need to be robbed of cholestrol as they make more then they can find use for, people who exercise need more for repair. If there diet is missing cholestrol, there liver carnt always make the extra needed when the diet is loaded with polyunsaturated fats. Hormones then decline, and same for men two. Polyunsaturated fats also rob the body of antioxidants, as more free radicals are generated with exercise and levels of SOD decline with age, faster aging occurs. For fit people omega 6 fats should be reduced. Then eggs, cheese and red meat added to the diet, along with olive oil and fruits and veg. Oily fish can stay as it contains omega 3 fats, these types of polyunsaturated fats are needed to reverse the effects of all the omega 6 in the modern diet. These low calorie low fat low cholestorel diets are for those who are either very over weight, or are inactive. A diet like that is unhealthy for a fit person. Also women who are very active, there is no need to have a very low body fat level (unless its the way you are anyway), you can be fit and of normal weight anmd look a lot better for it too. Many of these skinny women look old in there 30's.
