52-year-old Dawn Page was told to drink an extra four pints of water per day and reduce her salt intake in a bid to prevent fluid retention and lose weight. She began vomiting uncontrollably within days of going on ‘The Amazing Hydration Diet‘. Her “nutrition therapist and life coach”Barbara Nash, told her that it was part of the detox process.
She ended up suffering from brain damage and just won money after a 6-year court battle.
Hmmmm… lesson: avoid detoxes and check the creds of your nutritionist. In the US,demand the RD credentialor equivalent outside the US.
