Lemon detox diet
Many people are turning to detox diets to get in shape for summer. The lemon detox diet is a popular one on the market but what does it really do to your body?
Nutritionist Joanna McMillan-Price joins TODAY to talk about the detox craze and whether it will even help you lose weight.
"The lemon detox diet is part of an extreme "detoxifying" diet called the Master Cleanse," explains Ms McMillan-Price. "It involves drinking nothing but the lemon concoction made from squeezing lemon juice and mixing it with maple syrup, bottled water and cayenne pepper."
