Task
This ad makes tanning beds look so good.
This ad makes this diet look so good
Simon Cowell makes oxygen shots look so good to do
These ads are promoted online and on t.v. They could be advertised at gyms. I think these fads would be successful in some ways.
I think oxygen shots would be a hit because Simon Cowell is in it to make look better than it is.
I don't think the purple diet would be a hit because it doesn't have any celebrities in the ad to make it look better.
the negative is that they give side effects easily.

Credits
I have learnt about other health fads. I wouldn't have known what health fads were if i didn't do this essay. I have learnt about what each fad is and who uses them like what their side effects are.
Companies get people to get their products by selling them at saloons, gyms, online, shops, newspapers and the news. plus getting a celebrity to advertise them so people are like "wow Simon Cowell does oxygen shots I think I should do oxygen shots."
I think they should say good side effects to the health fad and bad side effects.
