Twinkie: diet Eat junk food and lose weight?

Eating cake - on a diet?

It has been dubbed the "Twinkie diet" media: Mark Haub, Professor, Kansas State University Department of Human nutrition, has been alive for junk food is the past month.

And he has lost weight.

This would seem to fly in the face of conventional nutritional wisdom.In the end results of weight for junk food?

Haub began "Twinkie" diet on 25 August. After this, he has been eating in most cases, Swiss rolls, cake, Blueberry muffins, cinnamon rolls, peanut butter Oreos and hot dogs.

Haub is junk food, milk (protein) and vegetables (vitamins) for dinner.

By 1,800 calories per day to the sides of the approximately 600-800 less than he would be obliged to maintain the weight-Haub lost 10 lbs of his "diet" for the first three weeks.

It does not come as a surprise. in the end you can lose weight eating two candy bars for a day is: it is calorie calories, which verses.

Haub is not the case, because he is junk food addict-he granted, salads and blue cheese is missing, He tries to open a debate on how low-income users will not be able to eat healthily (on the diet, his food costs have dropped to about $ 5/day):

It is unrealistic to expect that you will find fresh society in some areas, broccoli, tomatoes are at an affordable price. If someone can obtain their nutrients from the supplement and then they get, regardless of the fuel is available, the importance that they cannot get the fruit and vegetables, whole grains? is this correct?

Of course, must have high nutritional questions are asked about the diet, which is based on the so strongly sugary, salty, compensating products nutrition is much more than burnt. in addition, most folks junk food diet, finds itself so hungry (due to lack of sugar crashes and fiber), that they would be hard pressed to calorie-restriction.

What do you think? Whether Haub's test important one in the world, where the processed, packaged food are often much cheaper than fresh enterprises? Or this is a dangerous way to diet?
