The Achilles Heel of Popular Diet Systems

The biggest mistake lying at the heart of today's popular diet systems is their inability to allow for human uniqueness. They are predominately of a one-size-fits-all nature, and in some cases are very extreme and onesided when it comes to nutrient recommendations and other factors. A large number of modern fad diets have been derived from untested personal experience, capitalistic manipulations, trendy "logic," and/or uninformed advertising.
