Demi Moore Is Still on the Clean Program

After a rather unpleasant experience with the Master Cleanse Diet, actress Demi Moore switched to something called the Clean Program, which is so good she’s still on it.

At the end of July this year, Demi and husband Ashton Kutcher announced on Twitter that they were both starting the Master Cleanse, regardless of how difficult and controversial it was.

Shortly after the announcement, Demi was showered with criticism and fought back, saying she wasn’t doing it because she wanted to be thinner but because she wanted to be healthier.

Four days later and she’d already realized the Master Cleanse was not all it was cracked up to be, so she switched to a little something called the Clean Program, which is not a cleansing diet but a genuine eating plan.

The Clean Program is so good she’s still on it, as she says on Twitter after one follower asks her, “Do you really do the cleanses you speak of? Which do you prefer? Thx!”

“The Clean Program Is the best!!” Demi tweets back, clearly enthusiastic about the diet that has helped her look so good – this good, actually.

When word first got out of Demi’s eating plan, talk in the blogosphere had it she was only replacing one evil for a lesser evil (but an evil nonetheless), an allegation she bitterly refuted.

One user told her s/he wasn’t interested in Demi’s diets because “healthy diet & exercise are all that’s required,” to which the actress responded, “I think you need to research what it is I am doing there is no starving involved! It is all about nourishing the body!”

“The Clean Program is the creation of Dr. Alejandro Junger, who helped Giuliana Rancic and Gwyneth Paltrow lose weight. It is a 21-day regimen of smoothies, and salads for dinner are allowed,” the Huffington Post wrote at the time, as we also reported.

The Master Cleanse was even stricter than diets and smoothies, consisting solely of lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper, for which reason nutritionist are so set against it.

Judging by yesterday’s swimsuit pictures, the Clean Program is paying off.
