Top NJ Personal Trainer Says The K-E Diet is Medicine, Practice, Ethics and Greed at the Crossroads

April 29, 2012 - PRLog -- "Lose 20 pounds in 10 days" is the big promise made by the most recent fad diet called "K-E Diet" or the "feeding-tube diet." The K-E Diet was featured in a New York Times article involving a nasogastric tube inserted through the nose and down into the esophagus for up to 10 days. The diet consists of a slow drip of protein and fat mixed with water, totaling 800 calories per day with no carbohydrates.

The 10-day weight loss treatment costs $1500 and can result in the shedding of up to 20 pounds through ketosis, where the body burns fat instead of sugar.

The K-E Diet went viral in the news, TV and social media, particularly in the wedding weight loss industry. "I have many clients and friends asking me about the K-E Diet or extreme wedding weight loss diet," says Carey Yang,  a certified personal trainer and fitness expert in New Jersey.

Yang is the owner and master personal trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC — a leading in-home personal training and weight-loss management company serving and helping clients in Morris County, Sussex County, Passaic County, Essex County and Somerset County areas in New Jersey.

"Allow me to set the record straight, anyone or anything that promises you to lose 20 pounds in 10 days should raise the big red-flag warning. You should check the FTC rules for claim violations." Yang says.

"After reading the NY Times article, watching TV news coverage, and watching their YouTube video, all I can say is that the doctor and the K-E Diet put the patient's health in danger, dispense distorted health information, misuse nutritional guidance, exploit the brides-to-be's desperate vulnerability for quick weight loss before wedding, and watch their profit before the patient's pocket," Yang says. "This truly put nutrition science, medical practice, ethics and greed at the crossroads."

Some of known and cited side effects of the K-E Diet are constipation, bad breath, dizziness, kidney stones, dehydration, and headaches. “It’s like the Atkins diet on a feeding tube, ” Yang says.

"This type of weight loss lunacy gotta stop!" Yang comments.
