Worlds Most Ridiculous Diets!

Maintaining a healthy diet is quintessential for all of us. But sometimes desperation distorts the purpose of diet and we often land up with some really crazy and unbelievable diets.Lets look through someofthe worlds worst diets.

The Chewing Diet

Chewing food doesnt seem so difficult, does it? What about chewing each bite atleast 32 times and then tilting your head back so that the food flows down your throat! This diet was invented in the Edwardian era by Horace Fletcher. With his sore jaw and disgusting table manners I wonder how Mr. Fletcher made any friends.

The Hallelujah Diet

Talk about following a diet religiously! The hallelujah diet requires you to eat food that is listed in Genesis Chapter 1, Verse 29. Basically, Natural, Vegan and raw food. Seems too holy for me.

 

 

The Cotton Ball Diet

Simple! Keep eating cotton balls, either dry or soaked in gelatin! They are low in calorie, so there is no weight gain there. All you will gain by taking this diet is painful digestive problems! Of course Scurvy could also be a possibility!

The Tapeworm Diet

Yes you read it right. Swallowing tapeworms! Great diet,wouldn't you say? These dangerous parasites eggs were actually sold in the form of small pills which were easy to ingest. Even though there is no proof that it works, many including some jockeys have resorted to this diet. What were they thinking!

 

 

Breatharianism diets

Breathe, Breathe and Breathe. There, you have had all the food you require. This absolutely irrational diet focuses on how one can live on ones life force, and the nurients from the sun and air. Guess people following this diet imbibe a lot of air (to fill in the vacant spaces in their head I guess).

Does anyone of you know anymore ridiculous diets that can beat this list? If you do, it would be great if you can share it.
