Obesity is one of the most frequent nutritional pathologies of our time and a chronic disease that’s closely related to the way we eat and the lifestyle we lead. For many years the industry is bombarding us with new diets that can’t seem to keep their promise of loosing weight.
To confirm his theory about the best method to loose weight, nutricionist Dr Mark Haub developed the “Twinkie Diet” whose name refers to the All-American favorite snack. This is certainly one of the most frightening diets since the Atkins diet that recommended solely eating meat. With this diet he wanted to put an end to the never ending discussion about which method is better to lose weight: counting calories vs. eating healthy. With the “Twinkie Diet” Dr Haub wanted to prove that the only way to successfully lose weight is to count calories and therefore you should not have to abstain from fast food.
10 weeks long the expert ate the worst and most obscure foods, like the notorious Twinkie and potato chips etc. without exceeding a calorie intake of 1800 calories. And although he did indeed lose 14 kilos and his cholesterine levels improved, Haub wouldn’t recommend only eating fast food to anyone. Just because his weight is in a “normal” range doesn’t mean that he is healthier.
