At The Nadura Clinic we do not promote fad diets. We believe it is better to educate people of the role of fad diets, their impact and how in the majority of cases you are wasting your time, money and resources.

Fad diets usually involve cutting our calories quite drastically and, in some cases, increasing our activity and exercise. Inevitably causing an issue where your metabolism comes to a standstill. You may drop a few pounds initially but then you plateau, feel annoyed, angry, hungry, and tired so inevitable you revert back to old habits This isn’t by chance believe it or not, the reason we can overeat after a period of starving the body is to increase the amount of serotonin that we produce, this in turn makes us feel good.

If we are limiting the raw materials to make this chemical such as amino acids from our protein and our fat intake which usually takes a nosedive in fad diets, we are limiting the production and therefore feeling flat, low and down, along with hungry and tired. Your body will want to replenish itself and will crave what it needs to create balance or equilibrium, you begin to crave what you have removed, and the cycle goes on and on.
