Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Perhaps the greatest appeal of fad diets is that they tend to ignore dietary recommendations. Foods such as meats and milk products that need to be selected carefully to limit saturated fat can be eaten with abandon. Whole grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits that should be eaten in abundance can now be bypassed. For some people, this is a dream come true: steaks without the potatoes, ribs without the coleslaw, and meatballs without the pasta. Dieters are also lured into fad diets by sophisticated-yet often erroneous-explanations of the metabolic consequences of eating certain foods. Terms such as eicosanoids and de novo lipogenesis are scattered about, often intimidating readers into believing that the authors must be right given their brilliance in understanding the body.
