“Recipe for the Master Cleanse Diet”

Basically the master cleanse is a diet which requires you to drink mostly a lemonade cocktail for the duration of the master cleanse program. As the recipe for the master cleanse diet is a very simple and easy one to formulate. All that you need to do is to consume at least 60 ounces of lemonade per day but limited to 120 ounces.  You also need to consume a lot of water while following the master cleanse. The reason is because the master cleanse acts as a laxative which removes wastes and toxin from your body. This will actually cause you to be dehydrated. To avoid dehydration, you should drink an equivalent of your weight in water. This means for example if you weight 150 pounds, you should consume 150 ounces of water.

The Master Cleanse Recipe

For a single or a glass of the master cleanse,

- 2 Tablespoons of organic lemon juice – This lemon juice must be freshly squeezed. Canned juice will only erase most of the benefits of the diet because it usually contains a lot of sugar and other additives. Fresh, natural, organic lemon juice is ideal.

- 2 Tablespoons of organic grade B maple syrup – It is best to avoid imitation maple syrup for it contains additives and lacks the nutrients the body needs.

- 1/10 Teaspoon ground cayenne pepper – This may be a turn off to most people who are worried about how it will make the drink taste, but the lemon juice and syrup counteract the taste of the pepper.  There are really no limitations on the cayenne pepper since when you buy it it is in its purest form.

- 10 oz of filtered water – Filtered water or bottled water is better to use than tap water because of all the contaminants in tap water.

Another factor to note is that you must use organic grade B maple syrup and not sugar filled syrup. And although the Cayenne pepper looks as if it can be excluded, it is actually very important. The cayenne actually helps to break down the mucus and promote a healthy blood flow. Beside this, it is also a rich source of Vitamins B and C. If you wish to add flavor to the lemonade, just use decaffeinated tea because caffeine constrict the blood vessels. During the master cleanse, we actually wishes to promote a good flow of the blood so that the waste and toxin can be easily removed from the body.

You can also use Hoodia to help you to control your hunger pangs but remember to follow the recommended dosage when you are mixing the hoodia with your lemonade. You can also add a natural laxative to the master cleanse if you are bored drinking lemonade all day long. Besides helping you to control your hunger pangs too, like the psyllium husk, it will also assist in removing hardened feces from the body.  There are basically 3 kinds of natural laxatives which are recommended o be used with the master cleanse. They are herbal laxative tea, psyllium husk and sea salts. These are some of the best methods of for cleaning your intestines without using enemas. Just use the laxative twice daily, together with the master cleanse and you will get maximum benefit. As mentioned earlier, just make sure you drink a lot of water to counter the effects of dehydrations while using the master cleanse diet.
