Why do diets that eliminate an entire food group have potentially negative health consequences?
What will be an ideal response?
Each food group (grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and protein) provides specific nutrients that may not be found in the other food groups. By eliminating an entire food group, you may be eliminating the entire source of this nutrient, which can result in possible nutrient deficiency. This illustrates the importance of the concept of "variety."
