Gwyneth Paltrow is on one of her supposedly crazy diets again where you dont eat dairy or gluten/wheat products and avoid most fruit. Its the lead story in the celebrity section of The Sun today, and they make a big deal out of it, but it doesnt seem so strange to me:
GWYNETH PALTROW is taking desperate measures to shift her baby bulk
But incredibly I can reveal Gwyn has taken up an even more extreme diet, drawn up by her long-term health guru Dr Nish Joshi.
Hes the same man who introduced Gwyn to cupping a bizarre suction therapy that involves pressing jars full of hot air to the skin to improve blood flow and remove toxins.
Gwyn is BANNED from wheat, dairy products, sugar, gluten, booze and red meat.
She is allowed turkey, chicken and white fish but NO swordfish. Veg is OK but she can have NO tomatoes, peppers or other fruits, except for bananas.
Coldplay singer CHRIS MARTINs missus is also taking various herbal supplements to flush out toxins and undergoes regular reflexology and cupping sessions and a rather unpleasant series of colonics. In case youre interested, Dr Joshi, who is based in Londons famous Wimpole Street, charges 750 for the detox diet and, er, accompanying procedures.
His other clients include CATE BLANCHETT, who did the same diet in August, and NICOLE APPLETON, who has been getting into shape for the ALL SAINTS comeback.
Gwyneth just must have started this diet, because she sure had plenty of champagne at her birthday party last month.
I have gone on diets like that and once youre used to the routine you feel pretty healthy as long as youre getting the right nutrients. After my son was born I went on a no-wheat no-milk diet in order to make sure my milk was digestible. Some claim that its a myth that food you eat passes through to your breastmilk, but I got the diet from one of Dr. Sears baby books and I swear my baby stopped being colicky afterwards. After a few months less passes through to the baby through the milk so I went back to eating normal food again.
A lot of people are sensitive to gluten and dairy and a paleolithic diet is considered quite healthy by experts. A friend of mines wife had MS and was nearly cured after giving up wheat and dairy. For more on these type of diets, read up on Dr. Weston Prices Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.
I know I am talking about diets a lot lately, but I think they really work if youre sensible about them and eat enough.
Here is Gwyneth at Paris Fashion Week with Kim Cattrall. She doesnt need to lose weight, but she could do something about her makeup. I really dislike it when people put eyeliner on the membranes of their eyes without putting it beneath the eye too and think it looks strange. Makeup artist rubygirl214 commented on our J.Lo looks terrible post, so I wonder what she thinks.
