Celebrity Fad Diets
Do You Know How To Spot A
Celebrity Fad Diets? What Are Fad Diets? or how do You Spot A Fad Diet?
With obesity predicted to affect more than 50% of the population in the
next 40 years , the age of ‘fad celebrity diets’ and ‘quick fix weight
loss schemes’ has escalated to epic proportions. From the cabbage diet to
the Zone Diet to the 48 Hour Miracle diet, every single one of these
celebrity fad diets all claim to promote immediate weight loss and
increased metabolic activity. But do they work? And can they help you to
lose weight?
Unfortunately
not always. Apart from helping you to experience instant water weight loss
of 1-2lbs, 90% of slimmer’s have unfortunately experienced only a small
amount of weight loss of just 1-4lbs before hitting a plateau after a few
weeks.
More disappointingly, once they stopped following these celebrity fad
diets they quickly regained all the weight they lost.
But are they safe? Can they harm your health? What are the long term
health risks of these fad diets?
Whilst it is true that some of the top celebrity dietary fads can help you
to benefit from a quick weight loss, almost all of them are not healthy
for long term use.
Depriving your body of essential key nutrients needed to ensure your body
is working at optimum capacity and ensuring it receives the energy and
nutrients it needs to work properly whilst cutting your calorie intake to
less than 1,000 calories a day – more than 50% your recommended daily
nutritional allowance – is simply and logically not a good idea.
Supported
by strict exercise routines, countless hours in the gym and constant
calorie counting, most of these diets run the danger of making you feel
weak, tired, unable to concentrate and more worryingly unable to function
properly - None of which are good for your long term health and ultimately
your future ability to lose weight.
How can you recognise a fad diet?
Fad diets are quite easy to spot. Offering you a ‘quick fix’ solution to
your weight loss issues you can easily recognise a fad diet or celebrity
diet by their:
• Too good to be true claims
• Lack of clinical studies
• Elimination of one or more of the five recommended food groups.
• Recommendations from studies without reviews from other researchers
When choosing a weight loss programme or slimming pill, it is essential to
thoroughly research their benefits first before including them into your
weight loss programme. If there are no clinical studies or proof that they
can produce real and credible weight loss results, then more often than
not they are too good to be true- i.e they probably don't work.
