15 Celebrity Diets – Weird But Healthy Things Celebrities Eat

As people have grown more health and weight-conscious, they have learned to settle with grilled cheese, hams and chicken fingers to steamed fish and salads. Many folks follow their favorite celebrities when it comes to weight loss. It’s because celebrities are on a cutting edge when it comes to rigorous diet trends. Sometimes, their eating patterns include healthy but weird, unappetizing, and scary foods.
From Hollywood divas that thrive on baby food to youth icons that booze up to shed calories, these superstars have raved about strange health foods that can bring a drastic change in their bodies.
Here’s a look at 15 bizarre but healthy foods that were made famous by the celebrities.

Carrots and Almonds – Natalie Portman

Natalie Portman, known for her sensational performance in Black Swan, shed about 20 pounds by munching on carrots and almonds. This helped her maintain her slim and toned ballerina-like figure all-year round.
Carrots are rich in nutrients and low on calories. They are natural appetite suppressors that can keep you full for a long time. Secondly, almonds are rich in proteins. Adding almonds to yogurt, salad or pasta makes the food heavier. Thus, you’ll feel fuller when you take them.

Five Palms full of Proteins – Victoria Beckham

Fashion mogul Victoria Beckham put on a lot of weight after giving birth to her child. She decided to shed those extra pounds by going on the classic five-hand diet. After the birth of her daughter Harper Seven, the former Spice Girl eats just five palm-size portions of high-protein food items like nuts, scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and goji berries. These items are rich in proteins that can build up strong muscles. Proteins also help reduce food absorption inside the body. Meanwhile, she drinks a lot of water to flush out toxins from her body.

Alkaline Leafy Greens – Elle Macpherson

At 51, it’s totally shocking to see Elle Macpherson’s svelte figure. Macpherson knows the importance of pH in a diet. She firmly believes that an acidic body is more vulnerable to diseases. Therefore, she relies on alkaline foods like broccoli and whole grains and avoids coffee or alcohol to maintain an optimal pH inside her body.
Macpherson believes that maintaining a healthy level of pH is likely to reduce the possibilities of disease and disorders. Moreover, a body with a balanced PH is more likely to reduce weight. Alkaline foods like broccoli, kale, kelp and lettuce, etc. are not only good for your pH level but also the one of the best in providing your body with rich in antioxidants, nutrients and water.

Raw Fruits – Ashton Kutcher

To assume the perfect frame for his movie ‘Jobs’, Ashton Kutcher decided to follow a fruitarian diet as a tribute to Apple Inc. founder late Steve Jobs. The phenomenon ‘Fruitarianism’ as they call it is a diet based on just nuts and fruits. Both fruits and nuts are rich sources of vitamins and minerals that can boost your health and facilitate essential metabolic functions inside your body.
In addition, the fruit diet doesn’t involve grains and animal products. Though it helped Kutcher tone down his figure, the hunk unfortunately landed in the hospital due to pancreatic problems.
Doctors may deem fruit as healthy, but the diet critics believe that it’s virtually impossible to get rid of extra nutrients that are obtained from a fruit diet.

One spoonful of Coconut Oil – Miranda Kerr

Former Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr has one spoonful of unrefined coconut oil to flush out toxins from her system early in the morning. Coconut oil aids in digestion and maintains healthy bowel movements. This way, she easily avoids constipation and digestion problems. Also, this helps maintain good weight and keeps her skin super-soft, supple and healthy.
So, these are some weirdest, but healthy and effective foods tested by the dieticians. We can’t say if it would work in our case until we try them!

Vodka and Green Tea – Carine Roitfeld

Carine Roitfeld, editor and fashionista, prefers to avoid dieting. However, she does include a couple of beverages in her diet to maintain her slender, ramp-perfect figure. Since she was feeling a bit low-key about her figure, she has green tea throughout the day and drinks vodka at night.
While green tea is known for boosting weight loss by burning fats, not many people know that vodka is a healthy beverage since it contains low carbs and sugars. Drinking at least 3 to 4 cups of green tea on a daily basis can accelerate fat digestion and absorption inside your body.

Apple Cider Vinegar – Heidi Klum

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is said to boost metabolism, lower blood pressure and help the body fight toxins in blood. Supermodel Heidi Klum relies on ACV for a slim and toned body. She takes one spoon of ACV every morning to shed the extra pounds she has gained.
Since it isn’t possible for many people to have raw apple cider vinegar every morning, you can mix it with warm water and honey. This is good because both vinegar and honey can accelerate fat metabolism inside your body.

Baby Food – Reese Witherspoon

It’s not just babies who love baby food, but slim and super-cute Reese Witherspoon likes it too! She supplements her breakfast and lunch with 14 jars of baby food. This may sound a bit weird, but Hollywood celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson advocates this diet in her fitness studio. Although it’s difficult to relate baby food with the idea of weight loss, we can’t help but say that it has surely done wonders to her body.

Cookies – Nicole Polizzi

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have cookie all day round? Yes, it’s possible. Jersey Shore star Nicole Polizzi eats six cookies a day and has either steamed fish or chicken soup for dinner. But these cookies are no ordinary cookies. They are a part of Dr. Siegal’s diet plan. They come in oatmeal raisin, coconut, chocolate chip, banana and classic blueberry flavors. The good thing is that they are kosher and organic.

7 Fruits of Different Colors – Christina Aguilera

Cosmopolitan singer Christina Aguilera follows the 7-Day color diet which involves eating foods of just one color per day. Her week begins with white foods like garlic, cheese and milk, etc. Thereafter, she takes red, green, orange, purple, yellow and rainbow foods on subsequent days.
This weird ‘technicolor’ food diet was recommended by author Mindy Weisel in her book earlier.

Fruit Smoothies – Jessica Simpson

After Jessica Simpson gave birth to her daughter Maxwell in 2012, she gained enormous weight that put her under stress. She wanted to shed the baby weight as soon as possible so her personal chef accommodated special smoothies in her everyday diet.
The ‘4-month Smoothie diet’ as they call it involves smoothies for 15 days a month. The actress has three smoothies a day for 5 consecutive days. She usually pairs it up with two healthy snacks. For the next five days, she has two smoothies with one meal and two healthy snacks. In the third phase of her smoothie diet, she has one smoothie with two meals and two snacks. This is how she completed the ‘smoothie challenge.’ The results are evident in her lean and slim frame.

Raw Fruits and Vegetables – Uma Thurman

Many dieticians have stressed on the importance of raw food. The experts believe that no food should be cooked above 115 degrees Fahrenheit, as high temperature deteriorates the nutritional quality of the food. Moreover, raw food is more efficient at facilitating weight loss.
Needless to say, this concept has attracted several Hollywood actresses like Uma Thurman and Amanda Seyfried who have eliminated cooked and processed foods from their diet. They eat fresh fruits and vegetables to gain maximum antioxidants and fat metabolizing elements from them.

Raw Eggs whipped in Warm Milk – Marilyn Monroe

Hollywood diva Marilyn Monroe takes two raw eggs whipped in warm milk for her breakfast. She doesn’t eat lunch, but she finishes her day with broiled liver, lamb or steak and takes five carrots for dinner.
Sometimes, she finishes her day with a hot-fudge sundae as dessert. While eggnog definitely sounds a tempting treat during the holidays, not many people can stomach Monroe’s version of eggnog early in the morning.

Italian pasta – Sophia Loren

Being an avid pasta fan, Sophia Loren just can’t get rid of Italian pasta from her diet. However, she scales her favorite food to the size of one balled fist. She believes in having smaller portions of pasta at least 5 times a day to keep her carbohydrate intake in check.
Besides, having brown pasta is a healthier alternative to the processed and packaged versions sold in the markets.

Master Cleanser Lemonade Diet – Beyonce

The fast and simple lemonade diet is the secret of Beyonce’s slim and sexy figure. She borrowed the secret from Stanley Burroughs’ book “The Master Cleanser.” The lemonade diet entails mixing lemon juice with water, cayenne pepper and maple syrup.
Drinking this elixir is not easy. Besides, it isn’t a long-term, sustainable diet. If you don’t supplement it with healthy foods and exercise, you’re at the risk of gaining weight.
