The Fad Dieting
Meals
There are three categories of food fads. Some food fads
incorporate a combination of categories:
The virtue of a particular food or food group is exaggerated
and purported to cure specific diseases, and is therefore
incorporated as a primary constituent of an individual’s
diet.
Foods are eliminated from an individual’s diet because they are
viewed as harmful.
An emphasis is placed on eating certain foods to express a
particular lifestyle.
