What is a "crash diet"?

A crash diet is a weight-loss plan that involves drastically reducing calorie intake over a short period, usually a week or less. This type of diet often promises rapid weight loss by severely restricting food intake or eliminating entire food groups. Crash diets typically lack essential nutrients and can lead to fatigue, dizziness, and other health problems. While they may result in quick initial weight loss, the weight is often regained once normal eating habits are resumed. Crash diets are generally considered unhealthy and unsustainable, and they can have negative effects on overall health. Instead of crash dieting, experts recommend making gradual, sustainable changes to eating habits for long-term weight management and overall well-being.
