Beyonce used the “Lemonade Diet,” also known as “The Master Cleanse” to to lose weight for her role in the movie “Dreamgirls.” The Master Cleanse has gained a lot of popularity for its ability to help people lose weight quickly. But it has its drawbacks. Reportedly Beyonce admitted that she was cranky while on the Master Cleanse and that after she went off of the Master Cleanse she gained back the weight that she had lost.
Dangers of the Master Cleanse and other quick detox diets include dehydration, acidifying your blood, causing metabolic acidosis, vitamin deficiencies, low blood sugar, potassium and sodium levels, and muscle breakdown, according to nutrition experts. On the MSNBC blog Dr. Nasir Moloo, a gastroenterologist at Capitol Gastroenterology Consultants Medical Group in Sacramento, Calif. was quoted as saying, “There’s no evidence that these types of diets are necessary or helpful.”
Certainly a healthy diet and exercise are beneficial to losing weight. However, when choosing a diet it is important to think of the overall impact on one’s health and not just the end (and sometimes temporary) result of weight loss.
Other important factors in weight loss include one’s mindset toward losing weight and reducing one’s stress level. To find out more about both, go to
