Mexico has the third highest confirmed COVID-19 death toll in the world, trailing only the United States and Brazil. The government revealed that among the 57,774 Mexicans who have died, high blood pressure and obesity were the chief underlying conditions that may have complicated the disease, with diabetes a close third. The government’s point man on the epidemic, Hugo López-Gatell, has been a big supporter of the junk food measures — as well as recently enacted mandatory warning labels on high-calorie food — in part because about half of Mexico’s deaths from the virus were people under 65, something he has blamed on obesity and bad diets. He has singled out soft drinks, which he called “bottled poison.”

IU Diet: Day 3
Day three went great! And you wanna know why? Cause it was my last day!!
Those were the longest three days of my life in all honesty. Going from eating amazing, hardy and well-rounded food, to just eating an apple, sweet potato and a protein shake in a day is shock therapy for your body. I didn’t feel the weight of this diet until later in the first day as I said, every hour really felt like my body was slowly getting weaker and weaker, by midday I was drained and in need of a nap. When it came time to actually getting to bed, it was hard cause of the hunger pain I was feeling. I said in day twos post that it had felt as if my stomach was eating itself, which really is the best way for me to describe how I felt during these three days.
Now, did I lose weight? Heck yeah! Was it worth it? Not really. Unless you’re crammed for time and really need to lose a pound or two quick, this is definitely the diet... however! This is most certainly not a healthy choice in dieting, nor would I ever encourage anyone to do this insane diet. *I can definitely see why IU is so incredibly slim. But a diet like this can really do some damage to your health if kept for a long period of time, even a short 5-14 days can put major stress on your bodies health. Yeah, you lose weight but at the cost of your health. I became so emotional and a little moody during the last two days, It was annoying and unnecessary and I always tried to snap out of it.
Would I do this again?
Honestly, three days of this was enough for me. I mean I just didn’t feel good about myself. Yeah, I was slimming down and losing fat in areas I have trouble with, but I felt unhealthy and basically starving myself felt stupid to achieve a goal. Now that I can eat again, I feel bad about it, which I think isn’t the best outcome of this so-called diet. If I were eating healthy and nutritious meals as a way of “dieting” (but that’s really just a healthy lifestyle. To which I prefer) that’s a whole other story of guilt over eating. Now I feel as if whatever I do eat, I’ll end up regaining what I lost. I’m glad that I don’t look too slim for my height and the weight I lost actually doesn't look horrible on me. But still, I wouldn’t suggest this form of dieting to anyone. I was lucky enough to not get any headaches during this whole process.
Could I have gone longer than 3 days?
I feel like I could go longer. But, I just don’t want to find out what toll that will take on my mind and body. If I feel like this right now, I can’t even imagine what kind of moods, pain, exhaustion, and hunger will come with holding the diet for any longer than I have.
Conclusion:
I am really glad it’s over... but, I am going to have to get myself mentally okay eating meals instead of a single piece of food. All day I had to tell myself it was okay to eat now cause the diet was over. I mean it’s not crazy hard, it’s not like I was living on this diet for weeks... just three days. I don’t regret doing the diet though, I learned a lot and I am going to be making changes to my day to day lifestyle when it comes to how I eat.
