HuffingtonPost.com posted an article about a vampire diet that has been circulating the weight loss circuit. It is simply that you eat all things red- red meat, red fruit and even blood sausage.
Here is a sample of how to make this diet balanced:
- Add berries at each meal and allow yourself a piece of red meat twice a week -- but no more. A blood sausage per week is a great source of iron, so go for it if you dare. A tomato salad every night or a nice serving of gazpacho will fit the bill. You will need to add fiber -- loaded foods like legumes, quinoa (you can find a red variety of quinoa to stick to your red themed diet), or cucumber and parsley salads to balance out your nutrient intake.
The problem with this is that according to the article you may become severely vitamin deficient.
With the vampire craze, this may be taking it even a little too far in my opinion. Here is the article so that you can read the entire diet and information- Vampire Diet

I agree, this is taking it too far. Food intake needs to be balanced.
