Beyoncé serenades her daughter
Beyoncé has paid tribute to her daughter Blue Ivy in the best way she knows: through song. In a new single that leaked on the internet on Friday, the superstar mom-of-one sings about her 20-month-old baby. Lyrics such as 'When you were born, the angels sighed in delight' and 'Tears were shed; How we had been blessed' leave no doubt that the track, titled God Made You Beautiful, was written for her and husband Jay Z's only child. The singer is currently on The Mrs Carter Show World Tour, which wraps up on December 22 in her hometown of Brooklyn, New York. — IANS

Juliot Vinolia’s checklist for adopting alternate-day fasting
- Don’t do it more than once in three days
- Don’t go under 700 calories on fasting days
- Ensure there is sufficient water intake, as the body can go in dehydration mode
- Ensure there is enough roughage (fibre) in the food on fasting days as well
- Do not binge on processed or fatty foods on non-fasting days
- Complement fasting with plant-based foods, fruits, vegetables, seafood. Cut out processed meats and processed carbohydrates
- Manage your sleep
- People with existing gastric or mental health issues should avoid fasting
- Do not fast for prolonged periods without supervision by a qualified expert
