Lemonade Diet (Master Cleanse Diet)
What is the Lemonade Diet (Master Cleanse Diet)
The Master Cleanse Diet, or as popularly known; The Lemonade Diet was created by the late Naturopath Stanley Burroughs.
The Lemonade Diet is a short-term, cleansing diet that is similar to a juice fast in many ways. While you are following the diet (10 to 40 days), your sole source of energy and nutrients is a lemonade made with fresh-squeezed lemon juice, purified (non-fluoridated) water, grade-B maple syrup, and cayenne pepper. In addition, each morning, you drink a salt-water flush, and each evening you drink a laxative tea. The only other beverages allowed on this diet are pure (non-fluoridated) water and peppermint tea.
There is a strict regimen for ending the diet, beginning with fresh-squeezed citrus juices for approximately 36 hours, and then gradually moving to raw vegetables and fruits or to cooked vegetable soups over the course of three to five days after ending the regime.
The goal of the diet is to rest the digestive tract, cleanse the system of impurities, mobilize and eliminate toxins stored in various areas of the body, and burn excess fat stores. Weight loss is a natural by-product.
Lemonade Diet Recipe
For at least 10 days, drink around 10 servings/day of the following:
- 2 Tablespoons (1 fluid ounce) fresh-squeezed lemon or lime juice NOT BOTTLED JUICE!! (approx. 1/2 lemon),
- 2 Tablespoons (1 fluid ounce) organic Grade B maple syrup,
- 1/10 Teaspoon or more cayenne pepper (hot red pepper), and
- 1 Cup (8 fluid ounces) purified or spring water, NOT fluoridated water.
