Why Every ‘Scientifically-Proven Weight Loss Diet’ Is Actually a Total Scam

You’ve probably come across the endless ads, magazine articles, and best-selling books offering “scientifically proven” diets promising to help you lose weight.

But what does the science actually say about whether or not these diet plans really work?

This comic reveals the truth by exposing what’s really behind the claims that there’s “no excuse” not to be thin with these diet plans on the market. Since thinness isn’t an indicator of health anyway, what the hell are these diet plans good for?

With Love,
