What Makes A Diet A Celebrity Diet?
Celebrity diets usually have some kind of
gimmick such as eating the same fruit at every meal, or drinking a
special drink. They all are associated with a celebrity that has
been successful at maintaining a trim figure or has lost a
significant amount of weight.
People generally refer to a diet as a "celebrity diet", if it is
highly recommended by Hollywood stars, singers, or other
celebrities of notoriety. Most celebrity diets are low in
carbohydrates and calories and promise that you will lose weight
fast.
Celebrity diets usually have some kind of gimmick such as eating
the same fruit at every meal, or drinking a special drink. They all
are associated with a celebrity that has been successful at
maintaining a trim figure or has lost a significant amount of
weight.
The problem with celebrity diets is that they tend to make you
feel fatigued and in a weakened state. Those that encourage a
high-fat diet can even encourage the individual to eat a high-fat
diet and thus increase their risk for heart disease.
Some celebrity diets can even cause serious health risks such as
Beyonce's Maple Syrup Diet that involved eating no food and only
consuming a beverage made from lemons, maple syrup and cayenne
pepper for 10 days. You may see a dramatic weight loss, but you may
also see death's door. A crash diet like this can also put your
body into starvation mode where the metabolism slows way down and
it starts to store fat in response to the starvation that it thinks
it is in the midst of.
There are some celebrities that have actually made their
fortunes promoting their celebrity diets such as Suzanne Somers and
her multimillion-dollar business based around her Somersizing
diet.
One trick is to know which foods are beneficial to losing weight and which foods are your body's best friend. An example is asparagus in that, it is a natural diuretic. Eat asparagus to help decrease the bloat.
