Many people, even doctors have been brainwashed by popular fad diets. No wonder the obesity problem in the US getting worse. I found it disturbing when I spoke to doctors that don’t know if rice is a good carb or complex carbohydrate.
However, I can’t really blame them. Doctors are trained to detect sickness and give prescriptions. With the complexity of today’s medical procedures and growing numbers of new drugs each year, it’s hard for them to keep up with all the information.
So what do you do if you would like to educate yourself about good nutrition? Go to the American Dietetic Association website and educate yourself,

Now about fad diets, I found this article to be very interesting. Some of the most popular diets are listed there,

Please share this knowledge to your family and friends.
Stay healthy,
