Some popular fad diets that people have tried include the Atkins diet, the South Beach diet, and the low-carbohydrate diet. These diets all try to reduce or eliminate the intake of carbohydrates, which is thought to be a key factor in the development of obesity and other chronic diseases. However, research has shown that these diets are not effective in helping people lose weight or prevent chronic diseases.

Vegetarianism. No offense to anyone whose diet is full vegetables.  

I was vegetarian 18 years ago for 3 years. I grew very weak. I was very thin and old-looking. My skin had no supple and pink color. At the end of the three years, there were 2 instances that I could not move that my family had to support my arms hanging like a yoke on their back so I could walk. My legs could not move. 

But thankfully, I wasn't sickly and had a very active life on our 4.5 hectares property.

Vegetarians often consume less saturated fat and cholesterol than meat eaters while consuming higher amounts of dietary fiber, potassium, magnesium, Vitamin C, and phytochemicals like carotenoids and flavonoids.

Some popular fad diets include trying all kinds of different foods, eating only with your hands, and starting with the basics. Other popular diets include aclean diet, which means eating only from the day's food supply, and a healthy weight diet, which includes eating healthy foods and working out at a healthy level.
