So once you get the bad PR of someone dying from using the app and possibly investigated by the FDA/FTC who will want to use the app? This is one of the scariest apps I have ever come across.
- aantix 10y agoSo because one person could misuse this information, the app shouldn't be created?
- smn1234 10y agowhat's dangerous about not eating from 8PM - 12PM ? I do this almost daily. Listen to your body and feed it if it's hungry, not because of some set schedule that society and the food industry have set forward. This isn't at all difficult... not to the extremes of contributing to untimely death.
- xwowsersx 10y agoWhat a silly comment. Many people do intermittent fasting safely and effectively. Claiming that this app somehow poses a health risk to people is like saying a recipes app poses a risk because might follow the recipe and then die from overeating.
- DKnoll 10y agoIntermittent fasting is actually found to improve longevity. Some people with disorders would not benefit, but that's like saying a fitness application is bad because somebody with brittle bone disease might use it and injure themselves. I assume this is prefaced with the standard "consult your doctor before" warning.
- rhinoceraptor 10y agoI would be fascinated to learn the death toll associated with skipping breakfast.
- analogmemory 10y agoI see lots of people who run on just coffee for breakfast. They are also some really cranky motherfuckers till they've had lunch.
- rokhayakebe 10y agoIt takes a lot to die from hunger when you have food in the fridge. That is if you use an app that tells you not to eat but your body is telling you you are going to collapse, you won't even have to think, you will magically find yourself in front of the fridge in no time.
