Myths of nutrition #1: A common diet exists to help me lose weight.

Weight loss tends to be the most common goal of my patients, especially in the month of January.

Oh, if it was only that easy! When I search “diets of 2025”, I receive a list including: Body Reset Diet, Blood Type Diet, Alkaline Diet, Gluten-Free Diet, Whole30 Diet, Ketogenic Diet… the list is never ending.
