I am sure you have all heard of at least some of these ingredients being included in some sort of “SUPER DIET”.

 I wanted to quickly dispell some of the myths associated with these kinds of fad diets. First off, I will not argue that these diets help you lose a good amount of weight pretty quickly; however, none of these will provide you with lasting results.

 Here’s why…

 1. Most of these diets include foods that repeat themselves over and over again, or even require you to eat one food exclusively. Tell me how long you can stick with that!

2. Most of these diets lack the proper nutrients and minerals that your body needs to stay healthy.

3. Most of the fad diets also lack the protein needed to support muscle repair, which makes it nearly impossible to workout and get good results

4.  There is no mention of exercise or fitness.  It is all about the numbers on the scale.
