Nigerian Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke, has sparked controversy with his bold claims about food and nutrition. In a recent interview, Iyke asserted that the human body is designed to eat only once a day, describing food as a “scam” and claiming that society exaggerates the importance of feeding.
According to Iyke, “I eat once a day. Food sounds like a disruptor for me. Once I eat, it’s downhill. I think my energy is pure and unbridled when I don’t eat.” He explained that he functions better when he’s hungry and doesn’t like being overfed.
However, experts disagree with Iyke’s claims. There is no scientific evidence to support the idea that the human body is designed to eat only once a day. In fact, most experts recommend three meals a day with snacks in between if needed.
”Food is a scam. The human body is designed to eat just once a day. And of course, what you eat defines everything. The law of commutative effect will catch up with you every time you eat something wrong.”
Contrary to Jim Iyke’s claims, nutrition experts recommend a balanced diet with regular meals throughout the day. Eating once a day can lead to nutrient deficiencies and other health problems.
