Worst Diets of 2012 | ShapeNews

Every year there are crazy diets, but some of these are by far the worst!

NY Daily News and the British Dietetics Association have teamed up to tell us what they think are the worst celebrity diets this year.

The 6 Weeks to OMG Diet
The diet calls for skipping breakfast, exercising first thing in the morning after drinking black coffee, then sitting in a cold bath to encourage the burning of stored fat until 10 am. Snacks and fruits are off limits, foods are protein-heavy and carbs can come from cola or broccoli.

Alcorexia or Drunkorexia Diet
Basically, a diet based on alcohol and little else. Followers save their caloric intake from food and instead get their calories from beer, wine, spirits. Not hard to find the madness in this.

?Party Girl? IV Drip Diet
Followers of this diet get hooked up to an IV drip rich in vitamins like B, C, magnesium and calcium, a misguided principle given that the best sources of nutrients are in fiber-rich foods. Side effects can include dizziness, infection, inflammation and anaphylactic shock.

The Ketogenic Enteral Nutrition Diet or KEN
For 10 days, followers are banned from eating and are hooked up with?a feeding tube through the nose?that pumps a liquid formula into the stomach. Dieters must carry the pump and liquid wherever they go, most likely in a bag or backpack, and can only unhook themselves for an hour a day to drink water, tea, coffee or sugar-free herb teas.

Dukan Diet
But the diet that trumps IV drips, feeding tubes, cold baths and alcoholic regimes is perhaps one of the most popular diets around the world, the Dukan Diet by French physician Pierre Dukan, which bears striking similarities to the Atkins diet for being protein-heavy. According to the BDA, the diet is confusing, time consuming, rigid, and hard to sustain. Side effects are likewise unappealing, with everything from lack of energy, constipation and bad breath.
