The star’s shocking appearance appears to be the result of a bizarre, Scientology-approved diet…
Katie Holmes’ health looks to be suffering under a bizarre Scientology-approved detoxification process that has led to her shedding around 10kg from her already thin figure.
Insiders say the wife of Tom Cruise now weighs only 52kg despite her tall 175cm frame, placing her Body Mass Index firmly in the underweight category.
Sources say the actress, who is still splitting her days between her Broadway performances and taking care of two-year-old daughter Suri, has been following a purification program, known as Clear Body, Clear Mind, which utilises a regime of exercise, saunas and vitamins and minerals to help cleanse the body.
“When Katie embarked on a new diet, Tom was insistent that it stick to the codes of Scientology,” explains an insider. “The purification program is all about ridding the body of harmful toxins and calls for cutting out refined sugar, junk foods and carcinogens that create toxicity.
“It’s very gruelling — long periods of fasting on nothing more than water and juice, and heavy doses of niacin, colonics and long heated saunas to purify the body.”
The program advocates five hours of saunas and exercise each day for the best results.
