The truth behind Beyonce’s diet ...

Posted Sep 14 2008 3:00pm

The truth behind Beyonce’s diet has been requested HEAPS by our readers and so I’ve decided to include it in our celebrity weight loss section. This stunning star shed 20 pounds before starring in the movie Dreamgirls by amazingly sticking to The Master Cleanse diet.

Nooooow before I get into this post I want to say I do NOT recommend fasting as a means of weight loss. The weight loss you experience will NOT last and there are far easier and more successful ways to lose weight. . . .

beyonce diet Beyonce is a singer, actress, producer and designer - to name a few! This beautiful star has sold millions of albums around the globe and graced movie screens in Dreamgirls, Austin Powers, The Pink Panther and more. Its safe to say this 26 year old is GOING PLACES and she won’t be alone she has been with music industry extraordinaire Jay-Z since 2002!

Now back to The Master Cleanse Diet - Beyonce admits she followed this somewhat drastic diet just before filming commenced. When interviewed on the Oprah show she said "I did a fast - a master cleanser for 14 days. Everybody was eating Krispy Kremes around me. I was grouchy, but I did it and I lost the weight."

One of my close friends also did The Master Cleanse she kept it up for 8 days (an AMAZING effort if you ask me) but she says she would never do it again. She said its not so much the hunger that got to her but just the mental torture of not physically eating for so long!

So what is the now dubbed "Beyonce Diet" all about?

Well the Master Cleanse is a fast/detox that lasts for 10 days. Basically you drink this "lemonade" concoction for every meal during the 10 days.

The "lemonade" mixture is made up of:

3 Quarts of Water
1 Cup of Pure Maple Syrup
1 Cup Lemon Juice
1 Teaspoon Cayenne

Shake it all up and drink 8 to 10 glasses a day.

Also because of the lack of fibre in your diet you have to drink/take laxative products. Just a heads up you do NOT want to take them if you have to leave the house in the following 2-3 hours (you can imagine why. . .)

While the detox principle is a good idea from time to time to rid your body of toxins I don’t truly believe that The Master Cleanse fulfils that purpose. There are heaps of different detox’s which involve whole foods and healthier results - not to mention NO laxatives.

But at the end of the day you’ve got the scoop that WAS the Beyonce Diet.

We love you with your curves Beyonce :)
