Atkins or “Fadkins?” Case Study 2 for Bi 103 Part 2

Recall that you, Janine, and Mitchell were talking about the high-protein, low-carb diet that Mitchell decided to go on. Now you’re sitting down to lunch with the pair again. While you still don’t have a full answer for them, the conversation turns to diets again. “What IS that green glop you’re drinking?” Janine asks, staring at a cup that Mitchell is holding. “It’s this great new herbal detoxifier that I found at the health food store,” Mitchell says.

“Detoxifier?” Janine asks. “What the heck is a detoxifier?” “Obviously you’ve never studied dieting,” Mitchell says, with a superior air. “You see, if you eat a lot of junk food like some people do,” here Mitchell gives the evil eye to Janine’s milkshake and pizza, “you get all these toxins building up in your cells. If you don’t get those toxins out, especially out of the fat cells, your body can’t get rid of fats. So if you drink herbal detoxifiers like this, you get rid of toxins, and then you can lose a lot of weight. I just started this and I dropped like two pounds in a day.”

“Two pounds?” Janine asks. “Do you have the box? Let me see the ingredients.” Mitchell digs into his back pack and pulls out a plastic canister of green powder. Janine reads the label. “Ah hah!” she says. “Just as I thought. Parsley, dandelion, green tea – those are herbal diuretics. You’re not losing fat, my friend. You’re just losing water. That can be dangerous, you know. Too much diuretic can mess up your system.”

“But it says it flushes fat from your body,” Mitchell protests. “Look, right there on the label.” Janine gives him a patient, though pained look. “Have you ever noticed an oil slick in the toilet after you’ve used it?” “Um… no?” “Then what exactly does ‘flush fat’ mean?” “Um, maybe it makes it break down or something?” Janine shakes her head. “You’re drinking the stuff and you don’t even know what it’s doing to your body.”

“Look, all I know is that it works,” Mitchell says. “I believe it this stuff.” “Believe all you want,” Janine says. “It’s still a crock. And I still don’t see why you think you need to be on a diet to lose weight. Eating healthy, yes, but losing weight? You?” “I just really feel fat sometimes,” Mitchell mumbles. “I look in the mirror at gym class and all these other guys look so buff.” Janine nods in understanding. “Maybe all you need is a little more exercise to tone up. But really, Mitchell, you’re on the thin side. Maybe you have a body image thing going here.”

“What do you think?” Mitchell asks, handing you the canister of green powder. “Isn’t there something to the idea of detoxifying the body?” “Tell him all he really needs is to eat healthy foods and get a little exercise. Muscles use up lots of calories, so the only way to increase your metabolism is to gain some muscle. This green glop is going to drain his wallet and make him sick.”

Your task, part 2 Mitchell says that the herbal product “detoxifies” the body. Janine says it’s a diuretic. Find out what a diuretic is and what effect it has on the body. How does its action affect homeostasis? What body systems remove toxins from the body? Where do these toxins come from? Do toxins really cause you to gain body fat?

Your task, part 2, continued Body image and dieting go hand-in-hand. When body image is distorted, people can diet to excess. Do you think that Mitchell has a body image problem? What further health problems can result from a body image problem? Janine said that increasing muscle mass increases metabolism. Is she right? If so, how does this work? If not, why not?
