Wash Away The Pounds

Wouldn’t it be great if you could just wake up in the morning, run yourself a soothing bath and wash away those stubborn last 10 pounds?

Well, the new line of Aoqili Diet Soaps promises to help you do just that: Wash Away the Pounds!

How is this possible? According to the makers of Aoqili Diet Soap, “AOQILI is a unique soap made from the elixirs of undersea plants, including rare seaweed. The record of the healing and slimming property of seaweed has existed for over 400 years in the East. The soap not only provides natural skin care in bath, but the unique qualities are its defeating agents which penetrate to the subcutaneous layer to assist in the elimination of fat layers.”

What does this miracle soap cost? This product is widely available on the Internet and depending on the source, 1 bar can cost between $4 to $8 plus shipping.

Note: There is no credible, scientific evidence that proves this soap, or any other product, other than acid, is capable of penetrating the skin and melting away the fat.

Now let’s just pretend for a moment that this claim is true

1. What is going to happen if a dieter becomes overzealous and showers more than once a day?
2. Is it possible for a dieter to pass away or suffer great bodily harm as a result of washing away too much body fat? (Hint: Having too little body fat is just as deadly as having too much body fat)
3. What if a dieter scrubs one area of his or her body harder or longer than another? Could this result in uneven fat loss? Ex: one skinny leg and one fat leg.

As you can clearly see logic does not apply to the concept behind this fad. However, Thomas Tusser’s famous quote: “A fool and his money are soon parted” shines a whole new light on this scheme.
