Program exposes myths promoted by commercial diet plans and why their advertising claims are false or misleading. Viewers meet an anorexic teen who reveals how images of pencil-thin models and actresses in the media affected her self-image, prompting her to try a series of unhealthy diets. A registered dietician demonstrates the importance of good nutrition, emphasizing healthy weight-loss strategies incorporating moderate portions of nutritious food combined with daily physical activity. Program concludes with teens of different body types emphasizing how a healthy body is more important than the unattainable 'perfect' body often represented in the media. |
