Top 5 diets stars not to follow

The Breatharian Diet
First , the association cites the regime would have followed Michelle Pfeiffer, the Breatharian Diet. The principle ? Individuals believe they do not need to eat or drink as they can receive the necessary nutrients they need from the air or sun. No need to explain the dangers of this diet (malnutrition, dehydration ... ), we simply can not live without eating or drinking.
The Biotyping Diet
Another plan to outlaw : the Biotyping Diet , diet Boy George . The impressive weight loss of the former Culture Club singer is the result of this method that calls to follow his " biosignature ." What is it? According Biotyping Diet , there are 6 different biosignatures determined by hormones and the distribution of fat in the body . Favoring certain foods and eliminating others, we rebalance hormones and lose weight in a targeted manner .
BDA Verdict : This system requires a particularly large dose of dietary supplements. If people lose weight it is also because this method leads to caloric restriction and is also combined with the practice of a sport.
The Gluten Free Diet
The Gluten Free Diet ( Gluten free diet ) has many fans among our friends the stars , like Miley Cyrus and Gwyneth Paltrow . But again, this method is not very good for health. The principle : gluten , the protein in wheat, rye, barley and oats ( and products made ​​from these grains ) would be healthier and would promote weight loss.
While some are forced to remove gluten from their diet ( on medical advice ) due to intolerance, no study has yet shown that it had any effect on weight loss among others. The association also says that "gluten free" does not mean " calorie free ."
The " Alcorexia " / " Drunorexia " Diet
The " Alcorexia " plan or " Drunorexia " would be followed by many top models . How does it work ? We eat little during the day or week , so fewer calories are consumed , and compensates with those contained in the alcohol that swallows large quantities. No need for making medicine to know that abusing alcohol is not a good thing if we want to keep his liver ...
The Dukan Diet
The last scheme to be avoided according to BDA : the Dukan diet Lopez (already pointed in previous years ), followed by Kate Middleton and Carole Middleton, Gisele Bündchen , Jennifer ... The scheme launched by Dr. Pierre Dukan recommends promotes consumption protein compared to carbohydrates and fats. The plan is divided into four phases (offense , alternative, consolidation , stabilization).
But this plan is also accompanied by fatigue, constipation problems ( due to lack of fiber) or need to consume supplements to avoid deficiencies in vitamins and minerals . We are not immune to the yoyo effect after the end of the regime.
To lose weight , it is better prioritize a varied and balanced diet. In any case, what emerged from the results of the French study NutriNet - Health , published in 2012 : 76% of participants were satisfied with this effective method over the long term .
