Fad diets often aren’t sustainable—especially if you’re a runner who’s ready to tackle some big runs or races in 2020.
Generally speaking, you’re not getting a lot of vitamins, minerals, fiber, or antioxidants, Rizzo says. “That can lead to deficiencies in basic nutrients such as vitamin C or A—things that should be part of any person’s diet.”
