Gwyneth Paltrow: Cleansing
(Getty Images)Gwyneth Paltrow has also done the master cleanse but offered a more modified version to subscribers of her online newsletter, GOOP.
"I need to lose a few pounds of holiday excess," she wrote in 2009. "Anyone else? I like to do fasts and detoxes a couple of times during the year, the most hardcore one being the Master Cleanse I did last spring. It was not what you would characterize as pretty. Or easy. It did work, however."
Paltrow provided a more moderate seven-day detox diet designed by Dr. Alejandro Junger, author of "Clean." It includes chicken, smoothies, fruit and soups and eliminates gluten, dairy, sugar and processed food.
She also offered advice on maintaining regularity. "If your bowel movements get sluggish, you can accelerate things by drinking half a cup of castor oil or using a mild herbal laxative. Bowel elimination is paramount for correct detoxification," she wrote.
