Gwyneth Paltrow’s Diet Secrets

Although in the real world, celebrity Gwyneth Paltrow wouldn’t be thought of as fat but in Hollywood, you have to stay super thin to be a star. There is always a new celebrity beauty secret coming out of Hollywood and these "secrets" usually start trends elsewhere. What are her celebrity diet secrets? She, like many others are following a mostly juice detox diet and after three weeks of this diet, she has lost weight and feels "cleansed." Although she has followed in the past the Master Cleanse diet before, she is now raving about this new juice detox diet.

Called the “Clean program”, this three week diet was created by Dr. Alejandro Junger, a nutritionist and cardiologist. The Clean Program is supposed to discharge the toxins in the body, restore vitality, boost energy levels AND help you lose weight. It’s Gwyneth Paltrow’s detox diet as of late.

The diet consists of three meals a day, where only one meal is “solid”. On this diet, the following items are forbidden: alcohol, caffeine, pop soda, dairy, grains with gluten, meat, shellfish, processed foods, soy products, nuts, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, condiments or sugar. The rest of the diet, if there is anything else you can think of eating, consists of fruit juices, smoothies, soups, herbal teas and a few non fatty nuts.

Gyneth has lost the weight and she was able to exercise during the day without a loss of energy or feeling weak. Gwyneth works out for about three hours a day because she doesn’t have to work a regular 9 – 5 job like the rest of us. She is exhilarated about the way she now feels saying, "I feel pure and happy and much lighter.”

So why do celebrities have better bodies than us mere mortals? It’s no celebrity beauty secret actually – they have chefs to prepare their food, personal trainers, people to go grocery shopping for them, maids to clean up after them and loads of free time and wads of cash. If you didn’t have to work, you would probably workout for three hours a day as well.

Suzanne Somers Health and Beauty Secrets

At 62 years old, celebrity Suzanne Somers looks fabulous, but how much of this is real? What are her beauty secrets? Granted, some of her good looks can be attributed to good genes. We also know from her books that she uses bioidentical hormones which are known to improve wellbeing and deal with the symptoms of menopause and fight other problems associated with aging. Suzanne is a living example of anti-aging at its best.

We also know that she eats a healthy diet, has a regular exercise routine of yoga and keeps herself active and participating fully in life. She is busy promoting eternal youth, house and health care products and she takes nutritional supplements, vitamins – quite a lot in fact and natural hormone supplementation and injections. It is most likely that she uses her most famous exercise product which she promotes – The Thigh Master.

Also, we do know that she is not actually against plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery. She agrees with the use of Botox and collagen injections which she has stated in her book, “Ageless”. However, she does not agree with getting too much done and that your goals should be to look natural.

She also has a good haircut and uses makeup properly. She is not trying to look like 25 years old. She is looking like herself and she is well done. She dresses her age and avoids looking frumpy.

Judging from photos, it looks like she has had some facial plastic surgery, including a browlift, blepharoplasty and a possible facelift. No doubt she has also had some fillers such as Botox and some collagen injections in the lips. Her face is firm probably due to a facelift. There is fullness in her cheeks, likely because of cosmetic fillers. And why not? She wants to retain her good looks, she is a public figure and lastly, she can afford it.

She takes care of her body from the inside – out. By eating correctly and eating real foods, limiting her caffeine and alcohol intake, exercising and taking bioidentical hormones, she is taking care of her health. In her book, “Ageless”, she reports that she takes the following nutritional supplements:

Calcium – for strong bones
Vitamin C – 1000 mg daily
St. John’s Wort – for its ability to calm
Vitamin E
Glucosamine – for the joints and cartilage
Selenium
CoQ10 – for the heart
Phosphatidylcholine
Zinc
Rhodiola
Zyflamend
White tea extract
LycoPom
Smoke Shield – to guard against environmental pollution
Reishi Mushroom
Cinnamon
Multivitamins

I think Suzanne Somers looks great for her age. If we follow her routine and her healthy lifestyle, we can all look this good at 62. Really, her beauty secrets are no secret at all but rather the result of taking care of oneself, from the inside out.
