The Magic Chicken Diet was created by a do-it-yourself dieter who claimed to have lost over half her body weight. It made similar claims to, and resembled, the Kimkins diet of high protein, low carbohydrate, low fat recipes. The website, requiring a subscription to allow access to recipes and dietary information, is no longer operating.
How It Worked
The Magic Chicken Diet website required a onetime fee of $69.95 to access the dietary plan and recipes. Although not a chicken-only diet, it was based upon lean protein and low-starch vegetables.
Loss and Gain
According to the Ann Collins website, high-protein and low-carb diets can produce rapid weight loss, but this may be simply caused by water loss. Switching back to a normal eating routine may result in weight gain as water levels in the body increase.
Dangers
The Diets in Review website lists a class action lawsuit against the similar Kimkins diet plan, after many users became ill while following the diet. As the Magic Chicken Diet appears to be based upon the Kimkins model, potential users would be advised to consult a dietician prior to starting such a regimen.
