Whether you are preparing for a summer vacation or it is your New Year’s resolution, losing weight has become one of your top priorities.
We might have not asked everyone in the United States, but we know the majority have tried to go on a diet at least once in their lifetime, and according to statistics, there is about 14% of the U.S. population that try dieting every year.
Also, than $33 billion is getting wasted on products that promise weight loss, while 66% of Americans are obese or overweight.
Logically speaking, those diets we are killing ourselves on are obviously not working, and yet, we would still hear about the “new” diet that will cut off many inches from our waists in one week.
They would promise us anything to get us to purchase their products, neglecting how unhealthy those diets are to our bodies. In fact, they can even be fatal!
#1 – Tapeworm tablets
If you are not fond of healthy food and exercise, then just ingest a parasite that will help you shed calories and lose weight!
This method has started in the 1900s when they were marketing the consumption of tapeworm eggs in order to help people lose weight.
Logically speaking, it is obvious that swallowing parasites is not healthy, regardless of how helpful they can be. Technically, they would be hatching in your system and eating your nutrients, and that’s how they cause weight loss.
Scientifically speaking, the tapeworm infestation is extremely scary and dangerous. It can lead to some serious health issues, and once the parasite has infected a person, the larvae would move in the blood vessels, reaching out for the brain, eyes, and the spinal cord. All of this may lead to seizures, headaches, blindness, paralysis, and death.
#2 – The vinegar diet
Back in the 1820s, Lord Byron was extremely famous for his politics, poems, and also for advertising the vinegar diet.
