Is Beyonce's Vegan Detox Diet the Best Way to Lose Weight Before Christmas?

Excerpt:
They've got 99 problems - but meat ain't one as Jay-Z and Beyoncé are trying a 22-day vegan challenge in a bid to get healthy before Christmas.

Explaining the diet change, the rapper posted on his website Life and Times that he wanted a 'spiritual and physical cleanse', kick started by turning 44 in December.

The million dollar power couple are sticking to a 'plant-based' diet and cutting out processed foods and meat - but will stop in time to stuff their faces on a Christmas day feast.

We know what you're thinking - what's the point in food without sugar, meat and fat? But let chef Beyoncé change your mind...

Detox: Day One

Excerpt:

I told you I'd be documenting the journey that is my detox. Check out how day one went!

9:12am
No coffee this morning. I can only pray that the tiny little green tea bag that I drank this morning had enough caffeine to stave off any debilitating headaches for the day.

I also walked into the office this morning to find, on the communal kitchen table, a tray of cookies. 'Tis the season, I guess, but thanks a lot for the temptation, team!

Time for my breakfast smoothie. I'm sipping slowly to make it last as long as possible...

Detox and Cleanse: Healthy or Not?

Excerpt:
Detox has certainly become quite a buzzword as of late. Many people are using various programs from the Master Cleanse (water, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, maple syrup) to colonic cleansers with the hopes of improving digestion and ridding the body of harmful toxic chemicals. One would think that all these programs provide something to the body that it is currently lacking. Not so. The liver and kidneys are the body’s own detoxification organs and their job over millions of years has been to rid the body of wasteful chemicals and ingested toxins. When the kidneys and liver are functioning at their best, they do an incredible job of detoxifying the body. These organs, when not inhibited by processed and junk food (more on that later), are working every second of the day to naturally cleanse the body. So before you sign up for a cleanse or detox program, consider how you could improve the natural detoxification system your body already has.
