1. Diet Trends

2. Science Based Diet vs. Fad Diets
Science Based Diets: the recognition of nutritional deficiencies, the increased need for nutrition in situations of physiological stress, the risks of dietary excess, and the role of specific nutrients in mitigating specific diseases and conditions.
Fad Based Diets: diets that either eliminate one or more of the essential food groups, or recommend consumption of one type of food in excess at the expense of other foods.
Fad diets rarely follow sound nutritional principles for weight loss, which focus on ingesting fewer calories and/or consuming more energy through exercise; fad diets are generally not endorsed by the medical profession.

3. Diet Trends Paleo Diet Atkins Diet
Atkins diet: involves limited consumption of carbohydrates to switch the body's metabolism from metabolizing glucose as energy over to converting stored body fat to energy.
Paleo diet: Centered on commonly available modern foods, the contemporary "Paleolithic diet" consists mainly of fish, grass-fed pasture raised meats, eggs, vegetables, fruit, fungi, roots, and nuts, and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, potatoes, refined salt, refined sugar, and processed oils.

Juicing diet: A diet in which the person ingests only cabbage juice and water, but no other solid foods; it is recommended for ulcers. Gluten free: Gluten is a protein found in wheat and grains. It's a sticky substance that holds ingredients together, and mostly found in foods like bread, pasta, crackers, cereal and even in foods like salad dressings and lunch meats.

5. DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension)
DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) is a dietary pattern promoted by the U.S.-based National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute [part of the National Institutes of Health ("NIH"), an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services] to prevent and control hypertension. The DASH diet is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy foods; includes meat, fish, poultry, nuts, and beans; and is limited in sugar-sweetened foods and beverages, red meat, and added fats. In addition to its effect on blood pressure, it is designed to be a well-balanced approach to eating for the general public.

7. Ketogenic Diet Sprouted Grains Diet
Ketogenic diet: a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that in medicine is used primarily to treat difficult-to-control (refractory) epilepsy in children. The diet forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates
Sprouted grains diet: increased digestibility - Sprouting breaks down starches in grains into simple sugars so your body can digest them easily. Increased Absorption of Minerals – Sprouting breaks down enzyme inhibitors, so your body can more easily absorb calcium, magnesium, iron, copper and zinc. Increased Antioxidants – Sprouting releases more antioxidants that are naturally stored in the grains and seeds. Increased Vitamin C - Sprouting produces vitamin C. Increased Vitamin B - Sprouting increases the vitamin B2, B5 & B6

8. Slow food Diet
