“Food Is A Scam, The Human Body Is Designed To Eat Once A Day”- Jim Iyke
Veteran Nollywood actor Jim Iyke has shared controversial views about food and nutrition, sparking conversations across social media.
Although he has no known background in nutrition or health sciences, the actor claimed that people are naturally built to eat only once a day. He described food as a “scam,” suggesting that society has overhyped the importance of frequent eating.
During an interview with 3FM 102.7 in Ghana, he revealed his eating habits and explained why he avoids being overfed. According to him, going without food gives him more energy and mental clarity.
“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. So, sometimes, I don’t want to share that space with food. Because food would begin to weigh me down, I would begin to enjoy it and send signals to my head that the day is ending, I need to sleep,” he said.
He added: “Then your subconsciousness takes over with the manipulation and begins to tell you, you’ve tried today, you’ve eaten, take some time off. 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.”
Despite his statements, scientific
consensus does not support the idea
that the human body is designed to
eat once daily. Nutrition experts
typically recommend balanced meals
throughout the day usually three, with
healthy snacks as needed to support
energy levels, metabolism, and overall
well-being.
