Diets an unhealthy fix for teen weight concerns

Wipe these nuts off the planet alert!

Here is another pace of imbecile researchers.

"The researchers set out to uncover the reasons why dieting by adolescents has been shown in previous studies to predict later weight gain."

Noble goal, stupid conclusion.

"'We really want to discourage teenagers from dieting," she added..."

No.

Discourage everyone from following expert diet advice (including hers).

Encourage those who desire to or should lose weight to follow good diet advice (i.e., not from gurus, medical centers, doctors, trainers, pharmaceutical companies, the government, etc.)

"The findings suggest, Neumark-Sztainer and her colleagues conclude, that kids who diet are in danger of developing unhealthy physical activity and eating behaviors...

Neumark-Sztainer has written a book for the parents of teens called 'I'm, Like So Fat! Helping your teen make healthy choices about eating and exercise in a weight-obsessed world.'"

No.

The findings confirm that Neuamrk-Sztainer knows not a whit about weight loss, weight management or dieting.

Listen to her drivel at your own risk.
