Health Fads

This Health fad is promoted by Jamie Oliver, this is huge. I would think him promoting this would make this fad even more popular and successful because Jamie is a well respected man and quite famous over TV, and youtube.

I don't think this would be very unsuccessful until people realise that it's all a big commotion so that people turn to super foods that companies are selling mass amounts. This could shatter Jamie's respect from others, and reputation. However, I doubt this would happend because Jamie's cooking is too good to resist.

Diet Coke was a big one for the world because it had "no sugar what so ever." Now this was really successful because people who were addicted to coke and gaining weight wanted to enjoy the pleasure of Coke, but not gain weight. So this promotion of a new Coke led to a massive mis-conception. It was successful also because kids rarely got coke because of it's high sugar content, but parents would be more inclined to buy it for their child because of the "no sugar."

The only thing that would make this unsuccessful is when thise who get too suspicious realise that the artificial sweeteners in the coke that are used instead of sugar are worse for you're body than the original Coke, and people wonder why they are still gaining weight, even to this day.

Simon Cowell promotes these, I think this would make it very successful, Simon Cowell is very well known and respected because of all of the amazing artists he has made big. People also think that because he looks 38'ish when he is 52 that the oxygen shots actually work.

The thing that makes this unsuccessful is the fact that scientists have said that too much pure oxygen, can lead to cellular damage, which can lead to cell walls being broken down making you vunerable to diseases. At the sound of that a lot of people would back off of the idea. 

If I didn't know of the dangers of the Diet Coke I would probably try that one. I love Coke, and the fact that they have brought out a new one without any sugar, I can drink as much as I want without gaining weight and become sick with decaying teeth

In 1999 before the death of the swiss women ^^, Australian-born Verity Linn aged 49, was found dead on the floor in the Scottish Highlands after attempting this fad for 21 days.

I was unable to find any other cases. I assume this is because the health fad did not kick off as much as others, considering how stupid it sounded and how quick experts were to act on this saying it was all fake. Also, after 2 deaths, it would be quite clear not to try it.

The symptoms of smoking tobacco are:

Headaches

Nausea

Constipation

King George VI died of lung cancer

Sun bed tanning: people would lie down inside of booths and the booths would project UV rays onto their body tanning them. This was dangerous because the over exposure from the UV lights making the chances of cancer higher.

Teenagers, people with skin that can't tan in the sun and very untanned people. At least 80% of them without fail do it because they are unhappy and insecure about their body colour and simply want to have darker skin. They also do it because they feel that they are more accepted by people when their skin is brown and tanned instead of pale and white.

Some of the side effects that can occur from tanning in a booth include the following:

The tanning bed becomes like a drug to the user and they have to use it or they feel anxious, depressed and feel like they are helpless without it. Addiction isn't a pretty thing.

Using tanning beds also effects the eyes, giving the user a higher chance of getting ocular melanoma in their eyes. Tumars, and cataracts can also occur.

Pre-mature aging is another side effect because the over-exposure of UV rays creates wrinkling in the human skin and ages the persons body quicker. Which kind of defeats the purpose of the tanning bed considering it's supposed to make you look younger.

The tannig bed also creates the higher risk of skin cancer because the over-exposure of UV rays is too fast for the protecting cells to repair the body damage

There are some very interesting facts about tanning beds/booths and here are a few

There are more tanning bed parlours in New York alone, then there are McDonalds.

32% of tanning bed users are under the age of 21

Just in the US, 419,254 cases of cancer have been from tanning beds, over 6,000 of these were melanoma

Women who use tanning beds more than once a month are 55% more likely to develop melanoma

In 2010, the indoor tanning industry’s revenue in the U.S. was estimated to be $2.6 billion

In the U.S, tanning beds emit 4 times the UVA radiation and 2 times the UVB radiation of the midday summer sun in Washington, DC. High-speed sunlamps emit a UVA dose 6 times, and high-pressure sunlamps 12 times, that of the Washington, DC, summer sun

People that normally are involved

Some of the side effects of taking phentermine:

Anxiety

Depression

Dizziness

Nausea

You become moody and mean

Unaware of surroundings and those around you.

Some interesting facts I found out about phentermine include:

If you are pregenant using the pills can damage the baby or even potantially kill it with in the next couple days.

If breast-feeding, phentermine can flow through the milk making it dangerous and potentially fatal to the baby.

If you are allergic to asprin or yellow food dye phentermine can be quite dangerous to you and your health.

Having a kidney disease and taking phentermine is a really bad idea. If you have kidney diseases or a history of them, it can bring the diease back and/or make it completely worse for you.
