Tematika

With the increasing rate of obesity worldwide, new fad diets are regularly appearing alongside healthy weight loss diets. Weight loss diets that are considered healthy are characterised by being free of extremes, trying to maintain the proportions of the dietary recommendations, encouraging moderate weight reduction. In contrast, fad diets tend to have a specific, defining character that makes them clearly distinguishable from general dietary habits and dietary recommendations accepted in nutrition science, and their spread is fashionably rapid. It is not uncommon for a fad diet to be associated with a person who is known as its founder, its 'inventor' - whether or not they are a specialist in nutrition science, although, more often, they are not. Specialists are careful to take into account the physiological needs of the body, ratio of energy-giving nutrients, as well as scientifically proven lifestyle, not ideology. Many fad diets are in vogue among the general public and their popularity grows for a while, before being replaced by newer, more promising ones.
