Looking to detox and cleanse your body? Even lose 10 lbs in 10 days? We all know the benefits of detoxing and having a cleansed body and that to keep our bodies functioning optimally they need to be free from polution, stress, and any other additives (chemicals, pesticides et al). Weight loss can be another bonus, and this detox program has become popular exactly from that. Beyonce Knowles lost between 14 and 20 pounds doing this “Master Cleanse” or “the Lemon Cleanse”. But what is the “Master Cleanse”? Well, this detox program simply consists of lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. The cleanse was developed in 1976 by Stanley Burroughs, made popular in his book “Healing for the Age of Enlightenment”. The book covered other aspects of health care including reflexology and color therapy. It is worth reading this book before attempting the cleanse. There is also a free download available called The Master Cleanse eBook.

The master cleanse consists of 6 to 12 glasses a day of:

• juice of 1/2 a lemon
• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1/10 tsp cayenne pepper (or less, to taste)
• 8 oz water

This is followed for at least 10 days, and up to a month. The detox is completed when the white buildup on your tongue disappears and the tongue appears pink again, which shows that candida has been reduced. No food is allowed on the course, extra mixture is taken when you feel hungry.

Want to see what can occur on the master cleanse? A great documentary is available following 3 people on their detox:

The master cleanse is quite an extreme form of detox so why not try the 1-3 day detox first.
