Myth: Fad Diets Work for Permanent Weight Loss -
Fact: Though fad diets more than often promise a quick weight loss, they are not the best option to lose weight and keep it at bay. With fad diets, you may lose weight initially but these diets strictly limit calories and food choices are hard to follow. People usually get tired of them and regain the lost weight.
Fad diets are also considered to be unhealthy as they do not supply all the essential nutrients that our body requires. Moreover, rapid weight loss increases your chances of developing gallstones. Diets that give less than 800 calories per day also might affect heart rhythm irregularity, which can be deadly.
