A former K-Pop trainee recently revealed the extremely dangerous lengths that K-Pop trainees endure in hopes of losing weight. Sometimes, their weights would be recorded every day or once a month at their monthly evaluation, so they always had to be ready for an impromptu weigh-in. These dangerous weight loss methods can have unhealthy side effects and are not recommended. Check out the scary details below.
1. Limited Diets
While items like chicken breast, sweet potatoes, and vegetables can certainly be part of a healthy diet, consuming only these foods may result in a nutritional deficiency.
2. Taking Epsom salt baths
Inspired by UFC fighters who try to lose weight to drop a weight class, this method can have serious side effects.
3. Avoid drinking water
The trainees were so adamant about not putting on a pound that they would become dehydrated.
4. Laxative abuse
Laxatives should only be used for their intended purpose.
Additionally, the trainees would be active during dance practice, making it more dangerous.
5. Working out wearing a trash bag
Trainees would put on various layers of clothes, along with a trash bag.
They would exercise like this in hopes of sweating more to lose more weight.
These dangerous weight loss methods can have unhealthy side effects and are not recommended. Watch the full video below.
