Today’s Most Popular Diets - Amy Goodson, MS, RD, CSSD, LD

Have you ever tried a diet whether it was for weight loss, a medical reason, or performance? Each year, nearly 45 million Americans try a particular type of diet to lose weight. They also spend roughly $33 billion dollars on weight loss products. The alarming part is 92% usually give up in the first week because they weren’t perfect and for those who have success, 65% gain all of their weight back within 3 years. Why is it so difficult to have sustainability when dieting? In this podcast, we speak with Sports Dietitian Amy Goodson to discuss 4 of the most popular diet types in the US. We will discuss the pros, cons, and science behind the Ketogenic Diet, Intermittent Fasting, Plant Based Diets, and the Carnivore diet. We will also dive into the impact these type of diets could have on performance in athletes.
