Kimkins Diet Fraud

Posted Wed February 13, 2008 9:36 am, by Barbara B. written to Kimkins Diet Fraud


Kimkins.com - an internet diet site - is owned by a woman named Heidi Diaz, who claimed she lost 198 lbs in 11 months and kept it off for 5 years. Pictures taken by a private investigator show this to be a fraudulent claim by a woman who is over 300 lbs. She used false after pictures which she stole off the internet from Russian Mail Order Bride sites. She encourages those on her plan to go lower and lower in calories, and postings of fitday entries of her members show many doing less than 500 calories per day. This is a dangerous VLCD, low in essential fats and nutrients. Many have reported health issues from following this dangerous plan. She charges a lifetime membership fee (currently $79.95 payable by check, money order, or credit cards), yet has BANNED members from the site who asked questions about the diet that concerned them. The diet is dangerous, the woman is a scam artist, the lifetime membership guarantee has been broken time and time again. There is a class action lawsuit against her by people who paid for the membership and later were banned. The lawsuit is being handled by lawyer John Tiedt.

Shut down the site and do not endanger any more victims' health with this diet.
