Diet fads, by definition, rise and fall in popularity. Nobody asks us about the Atkins diet anymore, for example, and the number of non-celiac patients looking to eliminate gluten, which was so high just a few years ago, has dwindled to a trickle.
These days, we commonly field questions about the Whole30® diet, which people are using in hopes of losing weight for weddings, improving medical conditions, or attaining other goals.
You probably suspect, and accurately so, that we are not fans of Whole30, but you may not fully understand why. This month, we explain.
Thanks,
Jonah Soolman, Registered Dietitian / Co-Owner
