What is the Master Cleanse

The Master Cleanse program is a Detox program which was created by a self taught healer named Stanley Burroughs in 1941. Since then, this program has become increasingly popular among the masses. According to Stanley Burroughs, our bodies have become infused with toxins through the food. As a result, our bodies are increasingly susceptible to diseases due to the poisons in our system.

In order for us to improve our health, we need to regularly flush out bodies of these toxins and the Master Cleanse program was designed for such a purpose.

Many celebrities like Beyonce and robin Quivers have given their endorsement of this program because it actually works. The Master Cleanse program is actually a diet consisting of lemonade taken for 10 days. Although there are some slight variations to this program, the gist of it is to consume just this special lemonade to help your body flush out all the harmful toxins.

The lemonade is mixed with maple syrup to give you all the essential nutrients and minerals required by your body when you are fasting on the Master Cleanse program. Lemon juice is used because it contains potassium and maple syrup contains sucrose which is good sugar. One other benefit of lemon juice is that it is an antioxidant which helps the body remove free radicals which are bad for our health.

Another importance ingredient which is unique to the Master Cleanse program is the Cayenne powder. The “hot stuff” in Cayenne scientifically named as Capsaicin, helps to increase the body metabolism rate because our bodies will automatically slow down when on a fast because it needs to conserve energy. It also helps to dilute your blood so as to promote better circulatory flow of the blood in your body. The end result is that the harmful toxins are expelled faster.

The Master Cleanse program is a 10 to 15 days program. During this period, you can only take between 6 to 12 glasses of this special lemonade. You are also recommended to do what is termed as a “Salt water flush” to help aid the body in cleansing all the accumulated waste inside your body.

However, going on the Master Cleanse for period longer than what is called for is not recommended because as with all things, excesses are never good. Furthermore, the Master cleanse is not for every body. If you are pregnant or are on medication, its best that you consult your regular physician before doing the Master Cleanse program.

There are many books which have been written on the subject of the Master Cleanse program.  Nevertheless most books fail to mention the side effects of the master cleanse or how to deal with them. Not only that, most people fail with the first 3 days of this program because they are inadequately prepared physically as well as mentally.
