What is the most common thing urban women are doing .,, simple 105 % of women are dieting . This dieting thing for most women is starvation . I think UN is unnecessarily spending millions to eradicate starvation , they should see women willingly starving themselves. They get that high on torturing their bodies by starving . This diet word is now synonymous to starvation . I think Oxford dictionary people should make this change in their next edition .
Almost all the women are falling pray to Fad diets thanks to those zero figure bodies that are promoting it. Sometimes these diets            ( Aka starvation tortures ) target carbs or sometimes gluten , Fat and sugar are the  all time  victims. But when this poor diet ( simply put as amount of food n drinks needed by body ) is attached to healthy ,it gives it a right meaning . It is amount of food and water needed to maintain health . So you see health is attached to right eating and drinking adequate water. Starving your body towards the quest of perfect slim figure ruins your health . This nutritional backlog will cost you in fatigue , dullness, hair loss, dark circles and internally in irreparable nutritional imbalance .

Ladies diet is about eating . The right nutrients in right proportions and at right times ! This will give your body required t nutrients . Every nutrient is part of a big production line , if one is missing , imagine the product that will come out . Be informed about what the problems would be if you are going to follow Fad diets . For some time you will see yourself shedding weight but you will have to pay cost of this nutritional imbalance.
Now I will discuss  in detail the outcomes of nutritional loss after Fad n wrong diets

 Carbohydrate — people try various low carb diets . But along with shrinking waist line they also experience fatigue , thyroid dysfunction symptoms . Carbs are our main energy source. Our Indian diet is  predominantly carb based like rice , wheat  etc . So when this main part of diet is eliminated body gets confused . That affects normal metabolism . If you follow this kind of diet for very long you will suffer with  hair loss ,low energy levels ( imagine a pen  or a printer cartridge with a very low ink )
So you should have carbs in your diet but  you can choose wisely in right quantity .The healthiest sources of carbohydrates—unprocessed or minimally processed whole grains, vegetables, fruits and beans—promote good health by delivering vitamins, minerals, fiber, and a host of important phytonutrients.
Unhealthier sources of carbohydrates include white bread, pastries, sodas, and other highly processed or refined foods.  These items contain easily digested carbohydrates that may contribute to weight gain, interfere with weight loss, and promote diabetes and heart disease.

Wheat– Gluten free diets are very popular now . They are like a magic wand ,one swish n you get an hourglass figure . Those who have gluten sensitivity have to follow gluten free diets but those who follow it as a fad diet are not really benefited by it . Only possibility of weight loss could be due to limited food choices without Gluten . But you may end up getting more fat or sugars in food as without binding property of Gluten , manufacturers have to use extra fat or sugars. In fact, research suggests that those who forgo gluten may be more likely to miss out on important nutrients such as iron, B vitamins, and fiber.

Fat — This is the most Avoided nutrient in Fad Diets . Fat free diets may infact harm in more ways than the benefits
Eating a diet too low in fat can interfere with the absorption of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Because these nutrients are fat soluble, your body needs dietary fat to utilize them. These vitamins are stored mostly in the liver and fat tissue and are important in bodily functions such as growth, immunity, cell repair and blood clotting. If you’re not eating enough fat to bring these vitamins into your body, they will be excreted, and you may be at risk for a vitamin deficiency.
You are also depriving your body of essential Fatty acids which you get from dietary source . Omega 3s m Omega 6 s are important for mental health . They are precursors of many important hormones . Depression is often seen with this low fat diets .
It also affects the nutrient intake balance . The low fat meal will eventually lead to less HDL ( good cholesterol )
Thus the harm outweighs the  benefits of low fat diets .

So friends don’t fall pray to these fad diets . They harm your body in many ways . You may get that weight , inch loss but internally you are depriving your body of essential nutrients . You should master the art of Dieting . Starving is not a dieting .  Eliminating nutrients from your diet is not Dieting . Everything in right quantity is essential for your well being . If you master this you have mastered the Art of Dieting .
