Once you’re through with the fad diet, you’ll probably gain the weight back as you reestablish old eating habits.

Most often, fad diets involve the elimination of dairy, wheat/grains, and carbs (whatever that includes). Although the results of fad diets may come quick and be drastic, they are not sustainable.
In fact, according to the Weight-Control Information Network, the Cabbage Diet generally means to eat less than 800 calories a day. That has an association with irregular heart rhythms and can be fatal if you have a history of heart disease. So, in all honesty, this is why it is on the list of fad diets to avoid.

Is exercising really that bad? I exercise on a non-regular basis, (running & skateboarding whenever I feel like it) & I love it! Running is especially good.
I literally eat ice cream and pizza every week. I also go to the gym regularly so i got a muscular physique. You can whatever you want as long as you go to the gym.
Is it really possible to change your metabolic rate? Is there any empirical evidence of that?
Your 10 year old child should be proud for the animation work they did for this.
I’m that guy who can eat whatever he wants, and then it disappears in my stomach.
I have always listened to the back voice of my head that “balance” what we wat & “ exercise” is the ultimate solution for a good healthy life. NO SHORTCUT.
Even the Mayo Clinic pushes fad diets. They just call them something else.
I forgot who said it, but whoever, (pretty sure) she said, “Don’t eat anything your Great-Grandmother couldn’t bake/cook with the basic ingredients she would use”
Is the Paleo Diet a fad diet, then? I’ve been on a modified version of it that allows me to eat legumes
Guys, build muscle doesn’t need to be hard (I used to feel it did). I’ll give you some advice right now. Search a diet plan called Custokebon Secrets. Seriously, that course has transformed my life. I probably shouldn’t even be talking about it cause I don’t want a bunch of other folks out there running the same “game” but whatever, I am in a great mood today so I will share the wealth haha.
You can be very thin, but not be fit. you can be healthy, but not have the body of a supermodel. You can be super swole, but be unhealthy. jaiden aniations
Anybody know what is Custokebon Secrets about? I hear lots of people burn their weight with this popular weight loss diet plan.
Overrated diet plans to ditch in 2020: https://healthprowess.wordpress.com/workouts-and-nutrition/overrated-diet-plans-to-ditch-in-2020/
A doctor’s office I am in is playing this, video in the waiting area!
Hilarious but very informative video many thanks for uploading!!
I don’t understand how a diet can improve your brain capacities as mentionned in this video. The idea alone is ridiculous…
Fad diets are a total waste of time and do your body more damage than good. But the MOST important factor is the psychology. You lose weight. And gain it back. It’s not SUSTAINABLE. The key to making progress is sustainable lifestyle adjustment. This involves looking at your whole diet, everything you eat and asking ‘is this what my body needs, and is this something i should eat for the rest of my life for optimal health?’.
Knowing WHAT to eat and what NOT to eat can be complex for many people. In my Facebook group “Secret Body Transformation Principles”, https://www.facebook.com/groups/304109307100257/ we discuss these topics and the psychology of having the body you want. It all comes down to feeding your body what it NEEDS. We will support you along the way and get you to where you want to be and we don’t ask for any money off anybody.
a summary in the paragraphs would be amazing its hard to watch these and learn something i get off topic and end up being amazed by the animations
The Keto eating style (not diet) is not a fad diet. Just saying. Carbohydrates are not essential unless they are in vegetables which also has fiber.
Does anybody other than me think the representations of people in this video look like the Pianta form Super Mario Sunshine? I think so.
Diet Plan called Custokebon Secrets kept showing up here on different youtube and I thought they were scam. However after my work buddy follow it, and finally lost crazy amounts of weight with it without starving herself. I’m persuaded. You should not take my word for it, search for Custokebon Secrets on google.
Instead of “Marathi” subtitles, you can put Hindi which is more spoken in India.
The problem with videos like this is they rely on the same age-old data that may be doing more harm than good. More nutrition-based empirical data is being uncovered regularly, so keep up to speed on the online journals (there are free ones) to know how to determine, for yourself, what is good for you and bad for you personally.
One diet does not fit all, but there are general rules that can apply.
I am sick of these diets that tell you to totally eliminate this, never eat that, no this, no that. No human being can live like that forever unless they have no other options, and most of us in the developed world do have them. The interesting thing is that I never see celebrities push a diet that forbids liquor in all forms. They brag about not eating meat or not eating sugar, but they never say they’ve stopped drinking alcoholic beverages. It’s funny how the tables of so many Hollywood vegans and vegetarians at award shows are covered with cocktail glasses. No diet can guarantee a long and healthy life. There are too many other considerations, such as lifestyle, exercise and activity, occupations, stress, heredity, allergies, environmental factors, and congenital conditions. They will take my double cheeseburger from my cold, dead hands. And no cracks about how that’s going to be soon if I keep eating double cheeseburgers. If I want to be nagged I’ll ask my wife. She does it gladly.
What about “never eat the same thing twice until the day after yesterday”? (For example: eat a strawberry on Monday for breakfast, and u can’t have it again until breakfast on wendsday or later)
This video is part of a new fad: Eat everything in moderation. I have tried this new fad and it make my brain foggy. Back to keto.
Amazing info graphics and very good message…so important to get this message across to all!
when you get an ad about counting carbs on a video titled How to spot a fad diet

yeah i had fry brassel sprots and french twist bun for breakfast
NEVER DO “CLEANSES” OR DETOXES PEOPLE! THEY ARE NEVER EFFECTIVE AND CAM HARM YOU! Watch the Adam ruins everything video on this.
If you want to copy ancient people copy them completely… If you can’t find your own solution…
Ok but like having lots of proteins and veggies with some calisthenics (push ups, squats, dish) will give you a nice tone right?
I lost 30 pounds in 1.5 months cause of low carbs high protean. Cut down to 50 grams a day, but not completely out. No carbs will mess you up hard.
How much do you weigh isn’t important at all. Only size does matter.
My mom is on atkins, and it has worked wonders for her. There might be a plateau, but you can help fix that with a “carb-up” day
If only I had watched this a long time ago…
Thank you TED-Ed
It’s not sodium that causes a diuretic effect. It’s the loss of glycogen in the liver from eating fewer carbs.
Ted ed is the one source I really trust im happy they made this video
It’s still astonish me just how lots of people have no clue about Custokebon Secrets even though lots of people using it. Thanks to my personal buddy who told me about this. I have lost a ton of weight.
Eat balanced, don’t think about it all the time, but be aware. You can have junk food once a month or twice, but eat it with joy, not feeling guilty. Do some sport that you think is fun like tennis, football, basketball… Cardio is not that efficient and I think is pretty boring. Constant salads become unhealthy
god just use the japanese porn star diet you can eat as much as u want but only paper
My mom and brother religiously and periodically go on the south beach diet even though as soon as they stop they ALWAYS gain the weight back. I have tried telling them this doesn’t work and the best way is to have a healthy lifestyle but they just don’t listen. It’s so frustrating because those types of diets are so bad for your body.
Yet there are shit loads of doctors, nutritionist and scientists instigating all the FAD diets, its all economics like every thing else…most often there is money behind them to make them say that…and by the way, science is crap nowadays…they just do math correlations and associations in human study’s or analises of biological function’s in animals like rats and pig’s…they don’t know shit hehe, its sad but its a reality…
Ketogenic trumps them all! Atkins is the mother of Ketogenic; paleo is somewhat similar but keto is the one!
So much flaw in their argument.
4:07 Hah. Backtracking your statement already?
I follow The China Study. So many doctors aren’t properly educated on nutrition. I really like the animation in this video, but I ended up disappointed.
Trust chew each bite about 17-20 times and you will be less hungry (100%), can never put on weight while having this habbit:C
I’ve been on the South Beach Diet for over 10 years, and it has served me well. More research could have been done in regards this diet.
Do your best to improve your sleep, stress, exercise and food.
Make sure to sleep well,find ways to relax yourself which can work with exercise such as taking long scenic walks and doing short high intensity exercises when possible and do your best to eat balanced meals
You have no Idea what you are talking about. you never mentioned the fact that there are 4 blood types. Are you that stupid? Remember the word DIETBYDNA. You should stop making videos about things you do not understand.
0:42 Wuh… Can these guys seriously date everything back to some guy a couple thousand years ago? *But where did the ShamWow come from? It is said in Hindu folk lore passed down through generations of man that the ShamWow was a token that could absorb godly amounts of liquids with ease*
I wholeheartedly disagree with your conclusion. There is absolutely no ground for us to trust the doctors to know what is good for us. Let’s all remember the nice little war on fat waged in the U.S. and, by extention, parts of Europe. It only saw the percentage of overweight and obese people soar. The hard truth is that where certainty of pathology ends, doctors are largely clueless.
Otherwise, given that everybody has an access to a medical professional nowadays, don’t you think we would all have learnt to eat a little heathier by now?
Me neither. And I have been able to confirm this countless times, ranging from veteran doctors to my acquaintances who study medicine, nobody really has a clue. A practical doctor is not a nutritionist, and you should only weigh their advice as you would anybody else’s. If they look like a raisin with a sagging midsection in their early forties, chances are they wont offer you any solution that you can’t already figure out for yourself.
Do anyone know about Custokebon Secrets? Does it work? I hear most people burn their fat with this popular weight loss diet plan.
Filmed 10 years ago, but very much needed to hear this. Just got off of keto after 7 days and previously have attempted this, but can’t seem to do more than 7 days. The thing is, what prompted me to come off it was not the carbohydrates, but I was suspicious of this way of eating. Basically on keto you start off with high fat, moderate protein and low carb, but then you are must lower fat intake, so then your calories will be extremely low if you are on moderate fat and protein and low carb, also going to the loo is also very unnatural as only a small bit will come out (sorry tmi)
Also when people go on keto, will they eat like this for the rest of their life, if not then having a short term goal is not a healthy way to lose weight and often people will get impatient if they don’t see results straight away, basically what you’ve mentioned already.
Another thing the need for having to top up for potassium, sodium and electrolytesjust goes to show that if you are having to supplement it’s not natural and eating carbs would have prevented this.
I know you are talking about the Atkins diet, but apparently they have created this diet too.
I’m worried that not enough is out there to refute the keto diet, I usually look up diets and things to do with weight loss because it’s a habit of mine like how some people play games or watch Netflix this is like my pass time, but I can’t let myself get involved in these it’s a bit like gambling.
Anyway thank you for the vid.
