Beyonce has warned other women off the new Maple Syrup diet craze.

The singer kick-started the craze after she lost a stone in ten days following the liquid diet. Dieters

substitute meals with a strict plan which involves mixing the maple syrup with water, lemon juice and

cayenne pepper.

However, health experts have been sceptical of the diet and say that there are not enough nutrients in

the concoction to provide a balanced diet.

Beyonce lost the weight for her role in the movie ‘ Dream Girls’; she played her character Dana

both a young girl and as a 35 year old women.
