Outrageous Diet Trends You Shouldn't Try

There will always be some sort of diet trend, but this one is out of this world and simply outrageous! It's called the Breatharian Diet. Yes, if you guessed correctly, it's a diet based on air! Did you fall off your seat laughing?!
This diet is an idea that people can survive only on air - no food and possibly no water. It sounds so extreme I had to look into it, and this is what I found...
Breatharian, also know as Inedia, isan extreme spiritual concept that comes from eastern aestheticism(primarily Hinduism). The concept is that people don't need food, butcan survive entirely on air (or perhaps sunlight or "prana" [lifeforce]). It's not so much a diet as a spiritual lifestyle. In practice,the people who call themselves Breatharian do in fact eat from time totime. Not eating is a kind of goal or spiritual practice. But, forwhatever reason, most Breatharian do eat sometimes.
You know what this reminds me of, The Devil Wears Prada. If you've seen the movie (or not), there's one part where one of the characters, Emily, says,
"I'm on this new diet where I don't eat anything until I feel like I'm about to pass out, then I eat a cube of cheese."
Hey, maybe she was on the Breatharian Diet?!
Health Magazine lists other diet trends you shouldn't try:
Ear Stapling, HCG Diet, Master Cleanse, Cabbage Soup Diet and Raw Food Diet.
Some of them I've personally tried - of course nothing that lasted more than a day because I'm constantly active and was starving! Have you tried any of the following? Share your experience.
