Leo Diet

Leos should stay well away from fat, sugar and floury food in particular. The Sun, which governs the heart, is affected very quickly by fat of any kind. They need to give herbal teas their due; mallow should be the drink of choice. Throughout this diet, which can take off two kilos in three days, a Leo needs to drink two litres of water a day.
