The Cabbage Soup Diet

This is a strict low-calorie eating regime for 7 days, which entails replacing main meals with a soup made mainly of cabbage, which you can eat an unlimited amount of. The cabbage soup is supposed to suppress hunger and curb the appetite. This diet is not suitable for long-term weight loss; it is a low-fat, high-fibre short-term fix that many celebrities use to lose an average of 10lbs in a week. Celebrities like Beyonce, Jaime Pressly and Sarah-Michelle Gellar are reported to use this diet, often before red carpet events to ensure they look fabulous for the cameras.

Day 1: the soup and also any fruit, except bananas, can be consumed. Ypu can drink unsweetened teas,cranberry juice and water all week
Day 2: cabbage soup and add most fresh vegetables (except dry beans, corn and peas). No fruit today. A baked jacket potato with a little butter is included today
Day 3: cabbage soup plus fruit and veg
Day 4: cabbage soup and bananas and skimmed milk is allowed
Day 5 : beef (20 ounces) or chicken(no skin) or fish and up to 6 fresh tomatoes are eaten with the soup, 6-8 glasses water
Day 6: beef (or other options) and vegetables and one portion of cabbage soup
Day 7: brown rice, vegetables(no potatoes) and unsweetened 100% fruit juices accompany the soup.

Cabbage Soup Recipe

half a head of cabbage, chopped
6 onions, chopped
2 green peppers, chopped
2 cans of tomatoes (chopped)
3 carrots, sliced
10 oz. mushrooms, sliced
1 bunch of celery, chopped
1 or 2 vegetable stock cubes or 1 pkt dry vegetable soup mix (optional)
Seasoning - salt, pepper, mixed herbs, curry powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, etc.

Heat a heavy non-stick pan and dry fry (or with just a spray of oil) onions and peppers. Add cabbage, carrots, mushrooms and celery. If you prefer a spicy soup, add the curry powder or cayenne pepper. Add tinned tomatoes and around 4 pints (2.27litres) of water or vegetable stock Cover and put heat on low. Let soup cook slowly for a at least two hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

The low levels of calories, protein, and other food groups do not make this a sustainable eating plan. If stock cubes and dried soup mix are used, rather than just natural vegetables, the soup can be quite high in salt which is not a healthy option. Plenty of water should be consumed with the cabbage soup diet.

However, the main ingredients of cabbage soup are green vegetables which are fibre-rich and full of anti-oxidants. This is more a quick fix fasting plan than a diet, and as it only contains around 1000 calories a day this regime comes with a health warning.

The Perricone Prescription Diet

anti wrinkle diet Created by Connecticut dermatologist, Nicholas Perricone, this is one of the most popular diets with celebrity New Yorkers. It is a successful plan for weight-loss, and at the same time is also supposed to help keep wrinkles at bay. The Perricone Prescription diet is most importantly an 'anti-inflammatory' programme, as the founder believes many foods can react and cause inflammation in the body.

On this diet you eat three meals and two snacks a day, all of which should include some form of protein. High glycemic index (GI) foods, like rice, pasta, and bread which increase glucose levels are avoided. Other banned foods are beef, processed food, carrots, bananas, coffee and alcohol.

Eating foods containing powerful antioxidants, like blueberries and leafy, green vegetables and rich omega-3 foods, such as salmon, olive oil and nuts are encouraged. In fact wild Alaskan salmon is a suggested meal option several times a week. Lots of spring water and drinking tea is allowed.

Vitamin supplements and skin creams and lotions are also part of the Perricone Prescription, to help you gain a slim body and smooth, wrinkle-free skin. Cardio exercise five days a week is also an important part of the diet.

Reported celebrity Perricone Prescription followers include: Heidi Klum, Julia Roberts, Kim Cattrall.

Macrobiotic Diet

The main premise of this diet is to eat in harmony with the environment you live in. This means eating locally sourced food, selecting foods from the climate you live in and foods in season - this is believed to provide harmony and keeps your body’s energy at its optimal level and perfectly balanced. There is a belief in foods having expansive (yin) energy and contractive (yang) energy, determined by how the food was grown. No to imported foods.

The meals consist of:

Complex carbohydrates - whole grains, beans, seeds, vegetables and fruit.

Proteins - beans, fish, seeds, nuts, dairy products and eggs

Fats - oils, seeds and nuts

Vitamins, minerals and enzymes

Water

No to meat, dairy, processed foods and caffeine. A complete meal should contain all the 5 elements: Grain, Protein, Vegetables, Sea Vegetable and pickles, to provide balance.

Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna and Joe Pesci are supposedly followers of this eating regime.
Calorie Restriction/ Longer Life diet /120 year diet

lose weight diet The founder is scientist Roy Walford, with his book, Beyond The 120 Year Diet: How To Double Your Vital Years.
This vigorous plan consists of a limited diet of steamed vegetables, fish and nuts. Followers steam or eat raw food instead of using 'extreme heat' cooking, such as frying, grilling, barbecuing or roasting.

Followers of the CR diet aim to reduce the amount of their daily calories by 20 to 25 percent and avoid eating processed foods, wheat, sugar, meat, saturated fat, dairy products and drinking tap water. High calorie foods are replaced with low calorie, but high in nutrients foods.

Daily exercise is important too. The belief is that taking in the optimum nutrients from the smallest amount of calories will enable you to live longer and slow down the rate your body ages. The calorie restriction diet is supposed to stimulate the immune system, so makes you less prone to diseases, such as cancer, heart disease, strokes and diabetes. Less calories are believed to lower body fat, blood pressure, glucose and insulin levels and cholesterol.

Scientific studies have shown that calorie restriction does seem to slow the ageing process, but if you overdo it restricting your calories can lead to malnutrition. As with all diets, the Calorie Restriction diet comes with a health warning.

The Vibrancy Diet

Super slim model Kate Moss' secret to staying in perfect shape, according to the latest press releases, is her Vibrancy Diet. The diet consists of a breakfast of probiotic yoghurts, fruit and wholegrain toast and then two more meals of grilled fish, or chicken and big helpings of vegetables. She reportedly also drinks lots of water to suppress her appetite, and when she does go out she chooses a low-calorie alcoholic drink of vodka and fresh lemon juice. The diet plan also includes relaxation and meditation, and is reported to advocate cleansing your face with boiled milk.
Zone Diet
The zone diet is a low-carb diet, where everything you eat is in the ratio of 40% carbohydrates, 30% protein and 30% fat. The diet's founder, Dr Barry Sears, apparently believes this measured food group plan helps maintain a balance between the hormones, insulin and glucagen, which is ideal for fat-burning.

The premise is to eat the correct balance of food at the right time, to keep you 'in the zone' - Sears's term for proper hormone balance. Followers of the diet try to avoid sugar, bread, pasta, rice, caffeine and alcohol. This is the favourite weight-loss plan of many top celebrities, it is reportedly used by such as ex supermodel Cindy Crawford, and actors Jennifer Aniston, Tom Cruise and Renee Zellweger.
100-Mile Diet

The 100-Mile Diet, was written by Vancouver authors Alisa Smith and James MacKinnon, in 2005 - an eco-friendly diet, combining healthy eating and environmentalism. The idea is to only eat foods that have been grown and produced within 100 miles of your home - showing an awareness of carbon footprints caused by hauling food hundreds of miles by plane, boats and trucks. Many eco-aware celebrities have signed up to the pledge to eat locally produced goods.

The first carbon friendly restaurant, Otarian, opens in London next month, with every item of the vegetarian menu having its carbon footprint details next to the price, and the carbon cost of the meat equivalent. Good news if you like your greens!

Celebrity Diet Tips and Secrets

Heidi Klum is reported to take Epsom salts before photo shoots, as the salts are supposed to draw fluid out of the body - combating any bloating. She is reported to photograph herself naked once a week, to make sure she maintains her gorgeous figure.

Oprah Winfrey apparently uses fruit ice lollies to satisfy any sugar craving. They last a long time and are mainly made up of water.

Naomi Campbell's diet tip, according to reports, is to stay clear of the bread basket when eating out.

Claudia Schiffer is reported to only eat fruit and vegetables before mid-day, and avoids alcohol and caffeine.
