HOW TO SPOT A FAD DIET: Claims quick weight loss of more than 1 – 2 pounds per week. Quick loss generally means quick gain. Uses “miracle foods”. No food can reverse the effect of overeating, nor can it “melt fat away” without exercising. Eliminates certain foods or recommends large quantities of food or food combinations Offers rigid, inflexible menus Sounds too good to be true

Spotting a fad diet continued: Makes conclusions from simple study or one study not reviewed by peers, often proven false Recommends or requires the purchase of a certain products or food to help lose weight.

WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT? Calories burned must exceed calories consumed Make positive lifestyle changes Fad diets may result in quick weight loss at first, but most of the weight that is lost is fluid. Usually when the dieter comes off these diets, they gain the weight back and sometimes they regain more than what was lost.
