MANILA, Philippines - Can lemon juice help you lose weight?

Superstar Beyonce reportedly lost 20 pounds quickly on the Master Cleanse Lemonade Fast, an all-liquid diet consisting of a mixture of fresh lemon juice, grade B maple syrup, cayenne pepper and water. It is taken 6-12 times a day without any kind of solid food.

I have to admit that Beyonce did look fabulous and waif-like in her role as Deena in the movie, Dreamgirls. In my opinion, though, its not the magic lemon concoction that made her lose the drastic amount of weight but the lack of calories she consumed in a day.

Anyone who doesnt eat and only drinks juice for two whole weeks will definitely lose weight.

It is also known that Beyonce gained the 20 pounds back as soon as she returned to her old eating habits. With any crash diet, weight loss is temporary and even causes the metabolism to slow down.

When the body experiences starvation, it protects itself by storing fat in order to survive. The body starts to break down muscle tissue instead of burning fat.

So what is it with lemons and weight loss?

Lemons are high in fiber, a fat-fighting nutrient that controls hunger pangs, reduces cravings and aids in digestion.
