Beyonce's Diet

Beyonce's Maple Syrup Diet Typical Weight Loss: 20lbs Duration: 10 days Level of Difficulty: 5/5 The Maple Syrup Diet or The Lemon Cleansing Diet  Take a clean one-gallon jug and pour in the following: 3 Quarts of Water 1 Cup Lemon Juice 1 Cup Pure Maple Syrup (not maple flavored, but the REAL stuff) or molasses 1 Teaspoon Cayenne Shake it all up and drink 8-12 glasses a day. Beyonce Knowles says not to do this but openly admits that she used it to lose  20 pounds in 10 days during the filming of Dreamgirls. Personally, because of the health risks involved, I wouldn't try this. But some people do say that if done well, it has health benefits because it is after all a 'cleanse.'  To actually make this a 'cleansing' experience, continue reading... Do this:  1. Go to your local health food store and get an herbal laxative tea that contains senna.  While you're there purchase about 1 cup of non-iodized sea salt. 2. Every morning, before your lemonade, mix two teaspoons of the sea salt with a quart of water and chug. Make sure you are near a toilet and have about an hour to spare.  You'll need it. 3. Every night, drink a cup of your laxative tea. This fast should not be used for more than 10 days and you should wait at least four weeks  before repeating it. Supposedly this fast dissolves toxins and is great for breaking up mucous.  And most importantly, take note:  Whatever you do, do not go directly back to a rich diet after your time on this fast.  In fact, the best thing to do during a fast like this is to start setting your mind to healthy  eating so that when you go off the fast you can start fresh on a healthy nutrition plan that  will keep you body clean and strong. To ease out of the fast, do the following: On the first day after your fast, drink unsweetened fruit juices. On the second day, you can begin to eat soup.  On the third day you may begin to eat light foods. Just don't shock your digestive system with  solid foods. Be very responsive to your body's reactions...
