Why too much of health food is bad

What happens when Mr Z decides that fruit is the healthiest food on earth and chooses to eat fruit all the time? Or when Ms Z believes that proteins were created just to keep her thin and banishes all other food groups from her diet?



"This is when good food turns bad," says Dr Rommel Tickoo, consultant, internal medicine, Max Hospital, Delhi. "When we have too much of even a good thing, it ceases to be good, and can in fact cause harm."
