Functional Foods in Health and Disease 2017; 7(9); 702-715. https://doi.org/10.31989/ffhd.v7i9.346 ABSTRACT Fad diets can be defined as any diet making claims that are unrealistic and not supported by evidence-based data. Having been developed since the early 19th century, fad diets promise drastic weight loss and/or other unsubstantiated health claims while often omitting entire food groups. Their popularity with the public makes them an important topic for nutritionists and clinicians, especially in the framework of the obesity epidemic. Additionally, it is conceivable that components of fad diets can indeed facilitate weight loss, even if the diet overall is without merit. The grapefruit diet, the cabbage soup diet, and the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) diet are among the most popular fad diets and are reviewed within this study not only in terms of the diet plan itself, but also in terms of possible and known weight loss and health benefits provided by the foods on which the diets are based.

  • Healthy Nutrition at Work Feeling Healthy and Consuming Nutritious Foods Go Hand in Hand
    Healthy Nutrition at Work Feeling healthy and consuming nutritious foods go hand in hand. Employees often have a variety of responsibilities on their plates between work and family life, and turn to quick fixes they think will help them have more energy. Fad diets and nutritional trends have been around for decades, and people have been trying things in search of that one trend that will help them. Some of those diets and nutritional trends include: • Cabbage soup diet • HCG diet • Grapefruit diet • Juicing cleanses • SlimFast • Fat replacers • Master Cleanse • Giving up gluten • Atkins • Artificial sweeteners • Alli • Powders Nutritional trends change over the years. Some current nutritional trends include: • Fasting • Focus on gut health • Ketogenic diet • Convenience superfoods • Plant-based diet • Protein-powered foods • Mindful eating practices • Sustainable foods But nutritional trends typically come and go like fashion trends. The best thing to do is develop long-term healthy eating habits to ensure you maintain an optimal relationship with food and your health: • Set realistic expectations for what’s right for you and • Be sure to hydrate. your family. • Plan and prep where you’re able. • Balance your meals. • Don’t be too restrictive. • Remember portion sizes. • Keep it simple and make small changes. • Choose healthy snacks. As an employer, you’re in a unique position to help your employees reach their nutritional goals. Here are a few tips: • Ensure onsite cafeterias and vending machines are stocked with healthy food options. • Offer refrigerators and microwaves onsite so employees can bring their own meals. • Offer programs that help employees improve their eating habits and move more rather than focusing directly on weight loss.

  • Some Fad Diets' Promises Sound Too Good to Be True
    Some Fad Diets' Promises Sound Too Good to Be True Item Type Article Authors Brannon, Patsy M.

Brannon 5 pounds, keep searching for an easy, guaranteed weight- reducing diet. Nutrition and Food Science Promoters of such diets are delighted to aid in this consumer quest, so the number of fad diets continues to increase along with the pro- moters' profits. Fad diets tend to be nutritionally unbalanced, to focus attention on only one type of food or nutrient, to appeal to the consumer with faulty logic, to neglect the issue of weight maintenance, or to make excessive claims for weight loss. The body stores excess energy, measured in kilocalories, as fat. One pound of fat represents 3,600 kilocalories of energy. To lose one pound of fat, you must expend 3,600 kilocalories more than the number in the food you eat. It is not unusual to see claims by a fad diet that you can lose 10 pounds in one week. Take a closer look at this excessive claim: Ten pounds of fat means 36,000 kilocalories. To lose that by dieting in one week, you would have to eat at least 5,000 kilocalories per day less than you normally would.

The Ames City Council will be discussing a proposal to use fuel contracts to purchase fuel for CyRide, in which CyRide would agree to buy enough fuel for a two-month period at a predetermined price. Currently, CyRide purchases fuel every seven to 14 days and pays market price for the thousands of gallons of fuel. Under the pro- posed fuel contracts, the fuel expenditures would be more stable, which could reduce CyRide fuel costs.
