Task
no sugar diet:
The way the no sugar diet is marketed by a few ways… cook books, super foods and sweeteners.
An example of this is stevia a plant that is 300x sweeter than normal sugar.
when people say its 300x sweeter and its sugar-less sugar it makes them think this really is easy!
the bad thing about stiva is after you taste it it has a really bad after taste and you wont want to buy it again unless youve gone completly sugar free!
juice diet:
you dont really market it. but you do buy alot of fruit and veges!
you use fruit and veges in this fast so you need to buy heaps to stay with the diet!
i think that people would go on this diet because they think that just having fruit and veges is a good idea!
it is a bad idea because after you start you get really hungry and you loose alot of energy from the lack of food!
atkins diet:
the atkins diet is marketed by requiring you to eat protein at every meal and no carbs!
an example of this you have to by a lot of meat!
a good thing about this is it is effective about weight loss
a bad thing about this is the function of protien is body building and repair but when protien is used for energy because there are no carbs the protien wont be doing its usual job of repair which makes people sick later on!
answers for all:
i would like to try sugar free well my mum has gone sugar free so i guess ive already tried the sugar free diet!
i wouldnt like to try the juice diet for two reasons 1. you would get sick of juice! 2. you would be really hungry.
some negative side effects of sugar free is that you dont get to have yummy sugar!
some bad side effects of juice is that you woukd be really hungry!
some bad side effects of low fat is that you need fat for your diet its the sugar that makes you fat!

Evaluation
in dr phils is show it talks about dangerous Heath fads. The Heath fads which were included in this were sun safety and phentime.
in the sun safety section the plastic surgen talked about it being " no small operation " which means it would take a long time to remove skin cancer.
he said no matter what you need to wear 15+ even if your just going out side but if your doing sports or something like that you need 50+ and reapply it every 4 hours
In the other part of the show he discussed phentime. A drug in which it helps you loose weight. The Side effects of this is that your heart will race, head ache, mean, moody and you would want to pass out.
Conclusion
Credits
From learning about various Heath fads it makes me think do people really only care about selling there products and getting money when they are putting people's lives at risk. I think that if they would have then it's worth selling because people who would market fads that have terrible side effects they would never ever have them them self!!
companys market/ sell these products by only saying the pros not the cons if you think about it everything has pros and cons but when people buy Heath products they only think about pros then after everything has happend they do the research and find out about the cons.
If people really won't to loose weight do go taking tablets do things yourself cut down the unhealthy food and do exercise.
or you can reasearch about this first and make sure you know everthing about this tablet / diet and what the side effects are!!!
