There are so many health trends that promise amazing and fast results, but are they actually healthy and effective? Check out these “health trends” that you should probably avoid, or at the very least think twice about.

Juice Cleanses

This is a popular method people use to “cleanse” their body, but the truth is that our organs are already doing that. Consuming only juices and not eating fresh vegetables and fruits means that you’re missing out on fiber and probably consuming too much sugar, which is why dietitians are very skeptical about juice cleanses.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Weight Loss

There’s no such thing as a miracle drink or food that can help you lose weight in a short period of time. That’s why consuming apple cider vinegar to lose weight, which is a huge trend right now, is something you can definitely avoid doing.

Keto Diet

Most dietitians are not particularly fond of diets that are based on restricting major food groups, and that’s exactly the case with the low-carb keto diet. Carbs are one of the main sources of energy and that’s why low-carb diets are not such a good idea.
