Crash Dieting or dieting might be seen as a way to reduce weight in a short period of time, and has become a trend among youngsters today; but dieting without a proper knowledge can compromise on essential nutrients and ones health as well.

Many people opt for a crash diet just by starving or eating lesser meals. A proper diet includes having an optimal calorie intake along with proper exercise.At times its always important to have a control over our taste buds and say no to a few things.

The biggest victim in out diet is carbohydrates (sugars) which is usually seen in soft drinks and junk food and they silently add extra pounds of weight in an indivudual. So, its important to reduce carbohydrate and fat intake.

In some cases substituting high sugars and carbohydrates with honey can do the trick. Honey diet does not only provides the sweetness, but regulates the calorie content as well along with it health benefits which include helping digestion, fighting cough, cold, building immunity, producing anticancer properties and so on... So don't forget to add a spoon full of honey to your diet.

If one is has decided to go on a diet they should learn to be calorie conscious and chose a proper diet plan or consult a dietitian for an opinion, after all nothing is more precious than ones health.
