Kupas Tuntas Diet Kontroversial - TA

Fad diets promise quick weight loss but the evidence shows they are ineffective long-term and can pose health risks. While low-carb and low-fat diets may lead to short-term weight loss, people typically regain weight over time. Fad diets often severely restrict food groups and can cause nutrient deficiencies if followed for more than a few weeks. Any weight loss approach needs to focus on lifestyle changes like reducing calorie intake and increasing physical activity for sustained, healthy weight management.

FAD DIETS

What does the evidence say?


Tony Arjuna
Background
FAD DIETS & WEIGHT LOSS
BLOOD TYPE
DIET
Blood type O should eat low-carbohydrate,
high in proteins (such as meat and fish), and
low in dairy products. Specific foods to
avoid: avocados, brazil nuts, and oranges.

Blood Type A should avoid red meat, eat


plenty of fish and vegetables, with a low
dairy intake. Light exercise only.

BLOOD TYPE
DIET
Blood Type B should avoid chicken and
bacon, eat plenty of meat and dairy, some
fish, and plenty of fruit and vegetables.

Blood Type AB combines the A and B diets.


• Dr. D’Adamo isn’t a medical doctor.
• Metabolism and/or sugar/insulin
sensitivity are probably key factors in
deciding diet → not blood type.
• Two people can have very different
metabolisms and have the same
blood type → One could be sensitive
The Fact to carbohydrates or sugar, whilst the
other needs a high carbohydrate
diet.
• Supplements are promoted heavily.
• Many healthy and nutritious foods
are banned for certain types.
• Many people are healthy eating all
foods despite their blood type.
New BLOOD TYPE DIET

Type O: Exercise a lot.

Type A: Don't eat so much.

Type B: Exercise more, eat less.

Type AB: Eat less, exercise more.


Weight loss requires
The Bottom three steps:
Line 1. Eat less
2. Exercise more
3. Repeat
Grapefruit Diet

• One of the most popular word-


of-mouth wt loss plans
• Claim that grapefruit is believed
to have a fat-burning enzyme and
thus the plan specifies that
grapefruit be eaten at each meal
• Most of the meals also allow
some protein ,veggies, coffee, or
tea
• Calories add up to about 800/day
and lead to rapid wt loss
Pros and Cons

• Pros: grapefruit has lots of


Vitamin C and fiber

• Cons: any diet that restricts


dieters to eating only certain
foods is likely to eliminate vital
nutrients and vitamins and has
too few calories to be safe

• Long-term Success: Weight gain


inevitable
The Detox Plan

• The theory: You'll lose weight when you clean out


your insides by downing a concoction made from
orange juice and molasses or some other bizarre
mix.

• Reality check: There's no evidence that purging


your intestines of "toxins" makes you any healthier
or more likely to lose weight. A high-fiber diet is all
you really need.
If fad diets don't work,
why are they so popular?

CLAIM: Certain Diet is the BEST WAY to Lose Weight


TRUTH: We DON’T KNOW the best way to lose weight
FAD DIETS:
“Anyone who wants to believe in
Understanding them is forced to wonder how
Nutrition, 8th ed. Pg

working on obesity research
over the past century could
possibly have missed such
obvious connections.”
Reality Check

There are no good or bad foods → All foods can fit into a healthy diet

Some diets are a healthy way to lose weight and some are definitely not
healthy.

Some diets lead to a rapid weight loss that is quickly regained when normal
eating resumes.

Others may cause you to miss out on essential nutrients.

Any eating or exercise pattern that causes you to eat fewer calories than you
burn will lead to weight loss.

“Proper” Low carbohydrate and high protein diet under Professional Dietetic
Supervision works in assisting weight lost safely.
