Rating the Fat-Fighters
Article Abstract:
Fad diets sometimes work, but not for the long term and not for the reasons that the diets claim. If a person loses weight, it is because they are spending more calories than they consume. Diets such as Sugar Busters and Eat Right 4 Your Type are evaluated by doctors, as are various herbal and prescription preparations. Included is a guide for eating healthily.
