I am a great believer in fad diets, particuarly free fad diets, although the more popular fad diets have been given a bad press lately.
The most famous pioneer of the fad diet craze, Doctor Robert Atkins died in April 2003. He was reported to have weighed a rather hefty 255lbs at the time of his death. His high protein, low carbohydrate diet made the doctor a household name, although many experts are horrified that his diet promotes that two thirds of all calories consumed are derived from fat.
Other fad diets have also come under attack, critics claim the diets do not provide our bodies with the necessary vitamins, minerals, fats, carbohydrates or proteins that we need to function at an optimal level. I disagree!
I am also a big fan of detox diets, and have included some of my favorite detox cleansing diets.
I lost over 40lbs in just six months following fad diets, I did not stick to one diet but would chop and change, as some of them are rather limiting on the taste buds if you attempt to follow them for long periods of time.
