liquid diets – Shane Warne, who died from natural causes on Friday, had reportedly been on a liquid diet for 14 days – to try to lose weight quickly.

Days before he died, he tweeted an old photo, saying: “The goal by July is to get back to this shape from a few years ago.”

Friends have said it was a regime he had tried several times before, although there is no evidence it was linked to his sudden death.

So how safe are these diets and what is their effect on the body?

There are many different kinds of liquid diets but they all have the same aim – to lose weight quickly by eating fewer calories.

They range from fashionable fruit and vegetable juice drinks that promise to detox and cleanse the body to low-calorie shakes and soups.

But experts warn these extreme diets carry health risks and are unsuitable for most people.

The NHS recommends its 800-calories-a-day diet for certain groups only, particularly obese or severely obese people managing type-2 diabetes.

Tried and tested, it comes with lots of support and medical supervision, and contains all the daily nutrients needed – but this is seldom the case with other liquid diets found online.

“Juice diets appeal to people because they want a quick fix – but dieting is really hard,” Aisling Pigott, of the British Dietetic Association, says.

“There is a role for them – but it’s not one size fits all.

“It’s concerning when they are marketed at people who are a healthy weight.”

Fruit and vegetable juice provides lots of minerals and vitamins – but very little protein or fat.

Even fibre would be in short supply unless the whole fruit, including the skin and seeds, was pulped and added.

“You’d feel drained and exhausted after a week,” Dr Gail Rees, associate professor of human nutrition, at the University of Plymouth, says.

A diet that is not nutritionally balanced is not giving the body everything it needs – and “could be very damaging” in the long term.

Iron reserves would be used up, which could lead to anaemia in women, muscle mass would be depleted and the gut, lungs and liver would have to work harder to keep the body functioning normally.

Other potential side-effects include headaches, dizziness, extreme tiredness, diarrhoea or constipation.

Fruit juices, which contain lots of naturals acids, can also wear away enamel on teeth and a lack of calorie intake can make breath smell different.

Losing weight quickly is possible on a liquid diet but the biggest challenge, according to Ms Pigott, is “yo-yo risk” – the danger of piling weight back on again when food intake returns to normal.

Adele – Australian TV reporter Matt Doran has made a lengthy, unreserved apology to Adele for failing to listen to her new album before an exclusive interview with the singer, calling the bungle a “terrible mistake”.

Doran made international headlines this week for his interview with the singer, which was canned after he conceded he had only heard one track from her latest work, 30. Sony is refusing to release the footage.

Live on Channel Seven program Weekend Sunrise on Saturday, Doran concluded the show by lamenting that he had “insulted” Adele and apologising to the singer, her fans and viewers of the station.

“This is a story that has sparked a torrent of abuse and mockery from around the world and, if I’m being honest with you, the bulk of this savaging I deserve and I totally own,” Doran said.

Doran was flown to London for the exclusive interview with Adele in the lead-up to the release of her fourth album, which he described as an “unspeakable privilege””.

The interview was reportedly part of a A$1m package including broadcast rights to Adele’s One Night Only television special. It would have been Adele’s only Australian interview.

“I made the terrible mistake of assuming we weren’t to be given a preview copy of this album because our interview was airing before it was released and Adele’s album was the industry’s most prized secret,” Doran said.

“The day after we landed in London an email came through from Sony, it didn’t mention Adele but it did contain a link to her album.

“The genuine, deadset, hand on heart truth is that I missed it. By an absurdly long margin the most important email I’ve ever missed in my life.”

Doran said contrary to media reports, Adele didn’t walk out on the interview, which ran overtime and was at least 50% focused “squarely” on the new music.

“I thought it was reductive to describe [the new music] as simply being about divorce, that it was about empowerment and would inspire people to summon the courage to steer their lives in a new direction,” Doran said of the interview.

“We spoke about of the paradox that is being the world’s most famous artist but hating fame, we also discussed at length the concept of pure artistry, the majesty of Adele’s voice, what it must be like to hear that sound come out of one’s own mouth.

“How go Easy On Me was conceived in part by singing acapella in the shower, and how the album helped repair her relationship towards the end with her now late father,”

Kanye West has shared a photograph of him kissing his ex-wife Kim Kardashian after he vowed he would get them back together.

The Donda rapper, 44, took to his Instagram stories to share an old photo of him and then-wife Kim embracing.

While he didn’t add a caption, the photo includes a headline from TMZ stating: ‘Kanye West says God will bring Kim, 41, and him back together, inspire millions’.

The headline is in reference to a speech Kanye made at a charity event in LA earlier this week, where he stated he was determined to get back together with his wife.

In the speech, Kanye said he will fix his marriage as God wants them to see that ‘everything can be redeemed’.

The chart-topper went on to say that he would be ‘changing the narrative’ around his marriage and that he would not let E! or Hulu – two channels where the Kardashians have reality shows – ‘write the narrative on my family’.

Saying that he was trying to express himself in the ‘most sane way’, Kanye added simply: ‘I need to be back in my home.’

He said that ‘if the enemy can separate Kimye’, it makes ‘millions of families feel that separation is okay.

But when ‘God brings Kimye together’, those millions of families will be ‘influenced’ to ‘overcome the work of the separation, of trauma the devil has used…’

Kanye also opened up about their marriage in a Thanksgiving prayer on Thursday, where he said he ’embarrassed’ Kim when he vocally supported then-president Donald Trump and then tried to run for president himself.

The speech came after Yeezy told the podcast and YouTube series Drink Champs that he and Kim were ‘not even divorced’ as he has ‘never seen the papers’.

Referring to her as his wife throughout the interview, the rapper said their children ‘want their parents to stay together, I want us to be together.’

Kim, however, appears to have moved on with Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson, 28.

Rumours about the two swirled for weeks after they were seen holding hands and heading out for dinner together after kissing during a sketch on SNL for an episode Kim was hosting.

But while neither have officially commented on the rumours, the pair were seen this week holding hands and giggling together in a car – and if that’s not enough to sent the rumour mill into overdrive, Pete was sporting what looked to be a fairly considerable love bite.

Kanye, meanwhile, is rumoured to be dating model Vinetria, 22, after the pair attended a basketball game at his Donda Academy school in Minneapolis.

Hushpuppi’s request concurrence with the U.S. government was documented at the Central District Court of Central District of California, on Tuesday, and a date will later be fixed for him to change his past not-liable request to “blameworthy.”

Mr Kyari is named among five of Hushpuppi’s plotters in a $1.1million extortion charge as of late supported by a U.S. excellent jury.

An excellent jury in the U.S. is a legal body that decides whether there exists adequate proof to accuse a suspect of a criminal offense.

“ABBAS requested that KYARI have the police direct the ‘genuine beating of his life’ and masterminded with KYARI to pay to keep CHIBUZO detained for no less than a month, so the extortion plan could be effectively executed, and the cash could be acquired.”

Mr Innocenti, whose record depended on message discussion extricated from Abass phones, added, “CHIBUZO told the Victim Businessperson that JUMA and ABBAS were ‘phony,’ trying to persuade the Victim Businessperson to quit making fake installments to ABBAS and JUMA, and to make false installments to him all things being equal.

“At the point when JUMA and ABBAS learned of CHIBUZO’s obstruction, ABBAS organized to have KYARI—a profoundly adorned Deputy Commissioner of the Nigeria Police Force—arrest CHIBUZO for meddling with the misrepresentation conspire.
