| Re: Miracle Diet Pill - with a teeny-tiny side effect
Aye, they sell the 'stop absorbing carbs' ones in Woodlands Herbs. The 'fats' ones are a relatively recent development (over the counter, anyway) and are advertised in the window of Holland and Barret (I think).
All it is is messing up your digestive system so you don't absorb nutrients. How much research has gone into these? How do we know that in 20 years time we won't have a load of malabsorbing ex-fatties who are dying of malnutrition because they've fucked up their digestive system?
People with gall bladder disease, pancreatic disease, coeliac disease etc are admitted to hospital every day for malnutirition - and one of their main symptoms will always be fatty stools. This is a sign of disease and a bad thing™ - yet people are paying money to experience the exact same symptom... |
