I'm working on a series for Vanity Fair right now entitled "Goop and Goop," in which I spend 30 days taking the advice of the inimitable Gwyneth Paltrow and trying to apply it to my daily life (okay, imitable, seeing as that's the whole point of the series).
Which wouldn't be such a bad deal, all told, except that currently I'm in the middle of a Gwyneth-style cleanse.
Meaning: gluten, dairy, shellfish, meat, soy, "nightshades," condiments, caffeine, soda, alcohol, and probably a few other things I'm forgetting are all off limits.
On-limits? Drinking most of my meals through a straw.
The worst part about it? Just today I found an article on Reuters in which British Dietetic scientists debunk most fad diets, including cleanses, which they note "are pointless," since the body self-cleans out toxins.
So tomorrow day 2 of starving, caffeine-headaches, and dizziness.
...5 days to go AFTER that.
(Forgive me if my posts become less and less coherent this week...)
