Is this a safe method?

Question

so me and my friend are on a strict diet and i told her i get really hungry at night and have a hard time falling asleep because of it. she told me to eat 2 cotton balls and that would be safe and fill me up is that true?

Answer 1

Ummm...don't do this. I've heard alot of things but this is a new one. Don't eat that! It's like someone saying "If you eat the fibers out of your pillow before bed, you'll fill up fast! Just take a bite out of your mattress!" You know this isn't right. No..it isn't safe. No...it will not fill you up. If you eat small well balanced meals throughout the day, you won't be hungry. Or you could have a snack before getting ready for bed..something healthy, no sugar, preservatives or stuff like that. Tell your friend she needs to lay off the cotton balls or you'll tell her parents and the nearest counselor.  

Answer 2

No.  Do not eat cotton balls!

Answer 3

I am a physician, and I have a diploma of nutrition and I never heared about that.

please do not do that. if you feel hungary at night put an apple beside you and you can eat one apple at night, it will help you to override your hungary, and continue your diet successfully.

Well if your on a diet with your friend who told you to eat cotton balls.. I would look for a new friend... If you happen to eat the cotton well you'll find out when your on your way to the emergency room...You really want to lose weight.. weight watchers... it works.

thats a horrible idea! you should never eat something that isn't food. try drinking lots of water or green tea, this will help you get less hungry.
