The so called Beyonce Diet is a crash-diet and it might not be for everyone. It is more a rapid fasting and body detox than a diet.

Beyonce herself said that she would "never recommend this crash diet to anyone unless it is necessary and you have proper help". There is no point if you do such a hard fasting and detox routine just to gain back the weight you will lose shortly thereafter.

Beyonce's Diet is also known as "Maple Syrup Diet", and she lost 22 pounds with it within 14 days.

This "diet" does not involve any solid food. Instead, it is a mix of lemon juice, medium maple syrup, water and cayenne pepper in the form of a shake. You might enjoy it cold or hot.

Such a crash fasting like the Beyonce Diet needs additional help since it does not contain any solid food at all, although it contains valuable vitamins. Since we don't eat any food we need to support and help our digestive system to avoid any problems like constipation.

Beyonce drank laxative tea each night, and each morning she drank some 30oz of warm salt water which served a similar purpose as an enema. ( We told you this "diet" might not be for everyone! )

The recommended duration for this fasting and detox procedure is 10 days. A careful ending of such a diet is needed, where you start the break from the fasting by drinking natural juices for a day or two, then soups, followed by fruit and vegetables the next day. After such a a crash diet you cannot just resume your normal diet from one day to the other.

Here is the Beyonce Diet Recipe:

* 1 Cup (8 fl oz) purified water or spring water.
* 2 Tablespoons (1 fl oz) freshly squeezed lemon juice
* 2 Tablespoons (1 fl oz) grade B maple syrup
* 1/10 Teaspoon cayenne pepper mixed in - or as much pepper as you can handle.

The Beyonce Diet is interesting since it combines the elements of fasting and body detox. It is a rapid, fast acting way to lose weight and it might not be for everyone.
