As a Nutritionist that has been in clinical practice for 40 years, I’ve watched just about every diet you could name come and go. The Scarsdale Diet, Liquid Modified Fasting, Beverly Hills Diet, Blood Type Diet, Paleo, Grapefruit Diet, Cabbage Soup Diet, Dean Ornish, The Zone, The Phen Fen Craze, the HCG Diet, The Apple Cider Diet, and the Pritikin Diet are just a few that come to mind. The most popular diet was probably the Atkins Diet, and I’ve watched that one come and go over 3 times in the last 3 decades! And you know what folks? It seems the mere oddity of all these diets just continues to attract millions of people back into the dieting roller coaster to give yet another extreme diet a try.

If anyone of those diets had the answer to permanent weight loss, there would be no need for another to emerge, right? Yet here we are, once again, watching millions of Americans jump on another crazy bandwagon in hopes of discovering a new way to lose weight. This time, I’m watching another version of the Atkins Diet reemerge with a name that was created in the early 1900’s: the Keto Diet. I’d like to think that after 4 decades of this, people would wisen up and quit seeking out such ridiculous ways to lose weight. But here I am, once again, trying to explain why doing these extreme diets is so harmful to your body.
