Dr. Phil S21E112 - Danger Diet Crazes

"Drop 20 pounds in two weeks," "Get the perfect six-pack and muscle definition," "Eat all you want but still lose weight!" "Take these supplements for optimal health." These days, celebrities, professional athletes, "health" coaches, and influencers make fortunes and garner millions of followers and likes touting unorthodox – and often dangerous -- diets and health practices to achieve society's ideas of perfection and/or optimal wellness, and some people follow their idols and trends blindly. Meet John, who promotes the benefits of a raw animal product diet to his Instagram followers. Then, Jules not only follows a high-fruit raw vegan diet – but also feeds it to her 3-year-old daughter. Next, meet two women who were influenced to jump on one of the most popular new diet trends: taking a diabetes medication for weight loss. However, both landed in the hospital. And, Cameron, a young woman looking to lose weight fast who was influenced by social media to try the Keto diet to quench her sugar cravings, wound up in the E.R. Plus, a woman says her online bodybuilding coach suggested an autoimmune paleo diet which caused her to lose hair, have frequent injuries and also landed her in the hospital. Dr. David Nazarian and nutritionist Desiree Nazarian discuss extreme diets and health risks.
