"No, thank you. I am on a diet la today." You still need to eat and drink, even if you plan to lose weight. Foods you eat provide energy that your body needs to function. Your body is like a car where it needs the right fuel to start up and run. Thus, important to make sure you practice a healthy and balance diet. What does Fad Diets mean? Fad diet is a weight loss plan that claims to help you lose weight through specific food combinations. Nowadays, these diets become popular because the result of rapid weight loss occurs right away. But, do you know what is the actual loss? You lost water, not the fat in body. This is the reason why when you stop the diet, you regain weight very quickly. At this time, your body is correcting the water imbalance. Also, these diets typically allow a very limited food selection or encourage eating only one food which can lead to nutritional deficiencies. It can also cause anemia or malnutrition. For example high protein, low carbohydrate diet such as Atkins Diets is low in fiber, vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin D, calcium and potassium.
