what is the difference between a fad diet and a crash diet?
arent they the same??
Yes, they’re both equally useless. A fad diet is based on a gimmick–cabbage soup, grapefruit, lemonade and maple syrup, etc. A crash Diet implies fast weight loss-, promising 10 pounds in 2 weeks. Both kinds of diet will make you lose a lot of water weight and get dehydrated, get dizzy and weak, and when it’s over you’ll put the weight on again.

Food faddism and fad diet usually refer to idiosyncratic diets and eating patterns. They are diets that claim to promote weight loss or treat obesity by mechanisms other than calorie restriction.
The term "food fad" may also be used with a positive connotation, namely, to describe the short term popularity among restaurants and consumers of an ingredient, dish, or preparation technique.
_________________________________________________________________________________
A crash diet is a diet which is extreme in its nutritional deprivations, typically severely restricting calorie intake. It is meant to achieve rapid weight loss and may differ from outright starvation only slightly. They are not meant to last for long periods of time, at most a few weeks. Importantly, the term specifically implies a lack of concern for proper nutrition.

They can be the same thing, but not necessarily. A "fad diet" usually refers to a diet that has become popular and everyone is doing it. Some fad diets have been proven to be very successful if followed correctly, like the Atkins Diet. Another fad diet is the Grapefruit Diet, this is also a crash diet. You only eat grapefruit throughout most of the day. A crash diet is where you eat only one type of food or when you starve yourself. Neither is healthy and is a stress on your body. The problem with crash diets is you’ll probably gain all the weight back.
