Dr. Atkins Diet

Probably the most well known of all popular fad diets, the Atkins diet works on the theory that your body burns both carbohydrates and fat as fuel for its energy needs. Carbohydrate is the first fuel to be metabolized. However, when you cut down sufficiently on your intake of carbohydrates, your body converts from the metabolic pathway of burning carbohydrate to burning fat as the primary energy source. This results in weight loss.
Thousands of people claim to have lost significant amounts of weight on the Atkins Diet.

The Zone Diet

When you are tired of counting calories, you may be interested in following the Zone Diet, which originated from the writings of Barry Sears. With this diet, the main focus deals with “hormonal thinking.” Although this diet is not considered a weight loss method, many individuals have found significant results in using this approach for that purpose.

The Scarsdale Diet

A very famous popular fad diet from the 1970s, written by Dr Herman Tarnower, the Scarsdale Diet weight loss plan provides: 43 percent protein, 22.5 percent fat and 34.5 percent carbohydrate.
