9 fad diets: Should you try them?
They purport to be the secret to better health, increased energy, and a smaller pant size. But which of the latest crazes deserves a place at your table? Here’s some food for thought. The trend explained: These super-concentrated blends of green vegetables and fruit can deliver your five daily servings in one glass. They’re usually packed with the kinds of leafy greens, such as kale and spinach, that we don’t consume enough of. Sometimes made with almond or coconut milk, they taste sweet, not bitter. Whether made from fresh produce or from a powdered mix of dried greens, these smoothies are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. Proponents claim they boost energy and overall health.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
