Losing Weight on a Japanese Natto Diet - Scam?
 

Natto nonsense lands television show in sticky mess

The Jan. 7 installment of the TV show "Hakkutsu! Aru Aru Daijiten II" promoted natto as a dieting aid, providing dieting information to the effect that if you eat two packages of natto every day you can lose weight. Immediately, there was a nationwide rush on natto. According to the program, natto is rich in the hormone DHEA.

A short time later, KTV called a press conference and admitted the show's information was "fabricated"...

lol culd be possible but at times i think u do lose weight but u gain it back really fast after that

Not for me. I love to starving :rolleyes: :rheart: :vsign:

Aru Aru Daijiten has always sucked. They always hype something incredibly stupid, that is only vaguely based in reality... And all these old people who believe the show is perfect take everything for face value.

It`s great that they were called out on this one. That ended the show too - it`s been cancelled... Thank god.

Natto is awesome!
