Often times on myfitnesspal we get users asking about various diets such as one where you eat all bananas or one where you drink cayenne pepper and lemon juice daily.

I wanted to make a brief video to talk about whether or not diets like this are a good idea and why or why not? And if not, what's a reasonable alternative?

This post has been approved by the moderators and this video is hosted on a non monetized channel and I only post that for disclosure purposes.

    Not sure if they can, since I'm new here, but I think the mods should pin this topic. It's some good practical advice everyone should have.
