Many of you may have heard of the 'Master Cleanse or Lemonaide Diet'...It is based on the book, The Master Cleanser, by Stanley Burroughs. This is one of the best cleansing fasts (and safest), that I have seen. Its purpose is to eliminate toxins, cleanse the kidneys and digestive system, purify the glands and cells, eliminate waste in the joints and muscles, and build healthier blood and arteries.
THE RECIPE:
2 Tbsp. lemon juice (fresh only! organic if possible...approx. 1/2 lemon)
2 Tbsp. genuine maple syrup (NOT flavored)
cayenne pepper to taste
10 oz. medium hot water (spring or purified)
You may mix this up in a larger quantity and sip on it all day long. This is the only thing you eat...and you drink it anytime you are hungry...as much as you like. The lemons are wonderful for cleansing the liver and balancing the body's pH. The maple syrup has the vitamins and minerals your body needs to function without being tired during the cleanse. Feeling tired? Then you are not drinking enough of the lemonaide. These minerals also assist in balancing your pH and in keeping your blood sugar levels up. The cayenne pepper works as a stimulant...sort of a 'kick in the pants' to get the body moving to cleanse and heal.
I usually suggest doing a fast for only 1-3 days. If you wish to go longer, I recommend you read the entire book first as it answers many important questions. The book is only about 35 pages and costs $6.50. It can be dangerous to do a long period of fasting, please check with your physician first.
Start ANEW with a cleansing fast...free the body of toxins, rest the digestive system, replenish minerals, and feel great!
