Well crash diets are popular and popularly proposed in so many of the magazines that you see on the newsstands about half of them are labeled Mayo Clinic diet's and I can assure you that the people the Mayo Clinic would disavow any part of them. I've seen people trying to lose weight eating nothing but eggs. I imagine if they could have stayed on the diet long enough it might not have succeeded in causing lose some weight. The individuals I saw had some of the worst hives urticaria that
I've ever seen and they were terribly miserable. They couldn't stand the diet for more than two or three days. It was completely senseless type of procedure.
