What Is The Master Cleanse Diet?
Do you want to know how Beyonce was able to lose 20 pounds just in time to play her role in the movie Dreamgirls? Or how Jared Leto was able to drop the 62 pounds that he had to put on to play a movie role? You will be surprised by how uncomplicated it is. Read: you do not have to hire your own personal chef or trainer.
Because of all the media hype, Im sure that by now you are familiar with the master cleanse diet. Its amazing how this diet is so popular when its creator Stanley Burroughs an alternative medicine practitioner had made this diet more than 50 years ago. This diet was not coined to be a reducing diet for which it is popular now but rather it was designed as a cleansing diet that would help in detoxification.
What this diet is all about is the simple consumption of lemonade during the entire period of 10 days and nothing else but that. So basically this is a liquid diet. The lemonade that I am talking about is a mixture of fresh lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. The maple syrup you may decrease in quantity if you want but do not remove any of the ingredients when making your lemonade. You may have to get used to the taste of cayenne pepper but never take it out.
Before you start with the diet you will need to go through an ease-in period first.
The ease in period is a few days before you start the diet wherein you devote all your time to altering your diet to prepare you for what is to happen during the actual diet. You may think about exchanging fruits and vegetables for all the red meat.
Once you are through with the ease in period only then can you start with your diet. You can diet for an average of 10 days but you may also cut it short to 7 days and even extend it 12 days.
Every time you feel hungry, all you need to do is to take a sip of your lemonade until the hunger disappears.
Finally, you will have to partner your lemonade consumption with laxatives. The role of the laxatives is to allow for proper movement of your bowels. You will not have any fiber in your diet of lemonade so you will have to get it from the laxatives.
You will need to take in laxatives so that your body can excrete wastes that ultimately include the toxins.
