Your Top 10 Diets

There’s a lot of buzz surrounding the decades old Master Cleanse health system, also known as “the lemonade diet” - that involves drinking a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper. It was created by Stanley Burroughs who was an early advocate of natural health, and believed in the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

With all the diets out there to choose from why would anyone bother with the Master Cleanse?

There’s two main reasons people like the Master Cleanse. The first (and most obvious) is that it works. The results people are getting with the Master Cleanse border on miraculous, and they are backed by thousands of devoted users who are living testimonials to the effectiveness of it.

The second reason people choose the Master Cleanse over other diets and wellness programs is that it’s fast. The typical person only spends 10 days on the diet, compared to other diets that can last months or even years.

Most people who go on the Master Cleanse do lose weight. Many lose a lot of weight, as much as 20 pounds.

Much of the weight lost while on the Master Cleanse is fecal matter that has built up over the years inside your body. You will also lose water weight while on the cleanse.

It is important to know that the Master Cleanse is essentially a fast of sorts. It does provide you with all the nutrients you need to be healthy and be energized, but at the same time it is not a long term diet.

Another interesting thing about the Master Cleanse lasting just 10 days is that you only need a short term burst of will power to get through it. Having to sacrifice for months is what makes other diets so hard to stay on, but most people can will their way through 10 days. With that said, it is very important that you have a solid plan in place for after you have completed the diet, it just won’t make sense to go back to your old ways, if your old ways are not sensible.

So, what can you expect from 10 days on the Master Cleanse?

Even though most people are going on the Master Cleanse to lose weight quickly, there’s many other health benefits to be gained. Flushing out your system is what it is really designed to do. Even back 60 years ago when the Master Cleanse was first invented people had health problems as a result of waste building up inside of them. Today with processed foods, pollution, and all around poor diets our bodies desperately need to be flushed out every once in a while.

When you flush out your body with the Master Cleanse the waste you eliminate will be abnormal. The smell, color, and texture of the waste that comes out of your body shocks some people, so you should be prepared.

If you want to try the Master Cleanse there’s more you need to know then just drinking the lemonade mixture for 10 days. In fact, most people who try it without knowing all the steps fail. If you think the Master Cleanse is something you would like to try there’s a good book, called Master Cleanse Secrets, that you should read before starting. It covers the common problems people face, and how to avoid them.

If you are not prepared for what you’ll experience, there’s a good chance you’ll fail. Typically lasting just 10 days, it’s easy to see why people just “jump right in” to the Master Cleanse thinking it will be easy. It’s not.

During your time on the Master Cleanse you are likely to experience hunger, aches, and irritability. Most people give up because of hunger. Putting solid food aside for a couple days and only drinking liquids is harder then most people think. Even though the cravings for whole foods can be difficult, they do subside after a few days on the Master Cleanse.

Main Ingredients for the Master Cleanse Recipe:

• Pure Filtered Water
• Grade B Organic Maple Syrup, Formaldehyde free
• Organic Cayenne Pepper
• Organic Lemons
• Sea salt - Unrefined, (Not iodized) or Epsom Salt

Optional Ingredients:

• Laxative tea
• Natural Herbal Tea (decaffeinated)

So rule number 1 for finishing the Master Cleanse is getting past the third day. Instead of focusing on completing the entire 10 days from the onset of the cleanse just focus on getting past day 3. Breaking the Master Cleanse down into smaller milestones will be a big help.

Rule number 2 for finishing the Master Cleanse is dealing with aches and soreness. Headaches are one of the most common Master Cleanse side effects, but some people also get body aches.

To reduce aches you should drink a lot of water. It’s also good to relax and not push your self too hard when you do the Master Cleanse. Exercising should be kept to light walking and stretching. Your body will be going through a rigorous cleansing process during the Master Cleanse, and won’t be able to adequately recover from intense exercise during this time.

Rule number 3 for finishing the Master Cleanse is overcoming irritability. This affects the people around you more then it does yourself, but it’s something you need to be aware of before starting.

It’s best to let the people around you know that you’re going to be doing the Master Cleanse ahead of time so they can do their best to accommodate you. Also try to plan your Master Cleanse when you’re not too busy. Most of us can’t just take 10 days off to do it, but you should try to avoid doing it when you’re swamped at work, or have other stressful events going on in your life.

There’s more to succeeding at the Master Cleanse then I can cover here. If you are serious about trying the Master Cleanse and want to be one of the people who do make it through the whole 10 days the Master Cleanse Secrets PDF is the most complete guide available for helping you get through it.
