Among this list are the Cabbage Soup Diet, Maple Syrup Diet, and all Detox Diets. They provide details of what they are and why they are just based on pseudo science. For example the body is a complex organizing more than capable of detoxifying itself. Though after the Holiday celebrations it could probably use a little help.
They even mention two very popular diets namely Atkins and the Zone diet.
Reuters points out that two British dietitians even went as far as saying that Atkins and the Zone diet go against Britain’s Food Standard Agency recommendations.

Is your diet just a ‘fad’? Or has it really helped you shed the extra pounds?
