50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson III, followed a rigorous 9-week diet and successfully lost 54 pounds from his body to play a cancer patient in his upcoming film “Things Fall Apart.” The diet consists of pure liquids only – known as a liquid diet – as well as a three-hour walk on a treadmill every day.
The disclosure of his photographs sent people around the world into complete shock and disbelief. Some of them began to question whether such quick but drastic diets are healthy and rational.
However, Dr. Douglas Husbands, a nutritionist from California, told the press that this is an unhealthy method of dieting for several reasons: It cannot be applied for long periods of time, it can damage muscle tissue And toxins cannot be taken away. which is stored in fat. He claims that a sensible weight loss program that takes longer may be safer anyway. He also said that such methods used to grab acting opportunities in the world of entertainment can have serious consequences if not managed properly.
50 Cent claimed that he has started eating normally and should be gaining his weight back in no time. Doctor. Douglas also commented that gaining weight too quickly can be very dangerous. Overall, anything done in a jiffy will never do you any good. Some lay people have even commented saying that such a diet is seriously insane and shouldn’t even be tried by educated and polite professional trainers. There’s no doubt that 50 Cent is a spirited guy with no goals that can be achieved.
Marion Nestle, a professor of food studies at New York University, said the level of risk depends on how fast and how little the weight is lost. Most people are able to handle a few pounds but rapid weight loss can be fatal. However, if the diet is followed carefully, they are unlikely to have any health problems.
Such an absurd method of dieting as used by 50 Cent is just a fraction of what most celebrities do. Other famous stars such as Victoria Beckham, the Kardashian sisters, Beyonce, Renée Zellweger and Tom Hanks have also been involved in diet plans, although some may not be as extreme as Curtis Jackson. The spread of diet news can have a negative impact on the public and professionals are advising the general public not to copy any diet programs used by Hollywood stars.
