Here is a pretty photo of Gwyneth Paltrow at Madonna’s charity event in New York City February 6th.

Star Diet Secrets has just learned that Gwyneth Paltrow, like Oprah, is a fan of green tea which can help you lose weight by increasing your metabolism. You can learn more about the benefits of green tea here.

Not long after being dropped from her label, Katherine McPhee has married her producer boyfriend Nick Cokas. They met before she was on American Idol. Katherine said:

“(Nick) is the love of my life,” McPhee gushed to PEOPLE. “This is a once in a lifetime occasion and everything is just perfect.”

Did I mention she’s 23 and he’s 42?

Treated for an eating disorder in 2005, Katherine McPhee isn’t on any special diet right now.

“I eat what I want – pizza, pasta…ice cream, bread – but now I pay attention to how I feel while I’m eating,” the Los Angeles native, who avoids red meat but loves Snickers, told Shape magazine of her adherence to the Intuitive Eating plan.

“When I’m full, I stop.”

Good for her for winning her 5 year battle with bulimia. She looks great, and she’s got some great legs, doesn’t she?

Green tea skyrocketed in popularity after Oprah Winfrey had Dr. Nicholas Perricone (of The Perricone Prescription) on her show discussing the benefits of replacing coffee with green tea. He said you could lose 10 pounds in 6 weeks just by switching to green tea!

 Here’s the science behind why coffee is bad for you, from Dr. Perricone: 

Coffee (and it’s not the caffeine) can result in elevated levels of cortisol and insulin, leading to weight gain. Remember, elevated insulin puts a lock on body fat. If you substitute green tea for coffee, and do nothing else differently, you will lose 10 pounds in six weeks. Source

You can use this green tea supplement - Oprah endorses green tea because of how well the ‘green tea diet’ worked for her. By the way, green tea also has many other health benefits including boosting your immune system, improving cardiovascular health, and fighting off cancer cells.

Like her Heroes co-star Hayden Panettiere, Kristen Bell is a vegetarian which helps her stay slim. The girl’s got some nice legs. Imagine being a part of two hot shows like she is right now, currently voicing the title role on Gossip Girl, and starring in the super-hot Heroes!

Check out the new celebrity diet craze…

Jennifer Aniston is into coconuts; yep, coconuts are hot with celebrities lately due to their many health benefits.  Coconuts are reported to fight cancer, help weight loss, and improve heart health. Coconut oil is actually supposed to help you burn fat faster!

So, are you going to try the coconut diet?

Gwyneth Paltrow has been pretty skinny for as long as I can remember, although I don’t think she ever crossed the line and got “scary skinny.” Remember when she was with Brad Pitt? That was sooo long ago! Anyway, Gywneth used to follow a macrobiotic diet. In case you were wondering what a macrobiotic diet is (I know I was) here’s what Wikipedia says:

One goal of the macrobiotic philosophy and practice is to become sensitive to the true effects of foods on health and wellbeing. In this way, one goes beyond rules and regulations concerning diet to choosing foods that sustains one’s health. Dietary guidelines help one to develop sensitivity and an intuitive sense for what sustains one’s health and wellbeing in diet as well as in relationships and activities.

Macrobiotics emphasizes locally grown whole grain cereals, pulses (legumes), vegetables, seaweed, fermented soy products and fruit, combined into meals according to the principle of balance (known as yin and yang). Dietary recommendations include whole grains, such as brown rice, and other whole grain products, such as buckwheat pasta (soba); a variety of cooked and raw vegetables; beans and bean products, such as tofu, tempeh and miso;; mild natural seasonings; fish; nuts and seeds; mild (non-stimulating) beverages, such as bancha twig tea; and fruit.

Nightshade vegetables, including tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, eggplant; also spinach, beets and avocados are forbidden (or used sparingly) in macrobiotic cooking, as they are considered extremely yin^[3]. Some macrobiotic practitioners also discourage the use of nightshades due to the alkaloid solanine, thought to affect calcium balance^[4].

Gwyneth ditched the macrobiotic diet while she was pregnant with her first baby, Apple, and now she sticks to organics and tries not to eat processed foods or anything “toxic.”
