We've all heard about them... from juice to syrupy cayenne lemonade, detox diets. In the past several years they have been all the rage. Atkins and Southbeach: out. Detox: VERY VERY IN.
"Some high-profile celebrities are unabashedly
hitting the bottle. No, not hitting the bottle as
in they need to check into detox — hitting the bottle
as in it’s their way of detoxing. They are juice fasting to
cleanse their insides, which presumably improves
their outsides by helping them lose weight... Surprisingly,
most cleanses aren’t touted as weight-loss programs.
(Technically, anyhow: Invariably, plenty of women are
still signing on in hope of dropping a few stubborn pounds.)
They claim to rebalance the body, purify the liver, and
regulate the digestive tract’s PH balance."
But is it worth it?
Personally, I enjoy food too much...
but seeing Beyonce in DreamGirls is pretty persuasive!
