Day 1
I started my Master Cleanse Diet today and I must say yuck yuck yuck and double yuck. The diet calls for a mixture of water, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and grade b maple syrup.
First let me tell you there are many different variations out there and the diet is called by many names. The ingredients can get a little expensive but there are some pocket friendly options.
The diet has not been really proven to detox your body. In a healthy person that's what kidney, livers, and lungs are there for but it does clean out you system and help you lose weight.
First you start with water. Some recipes call for organic water whatever that may be. Across the board they all say don't use tap water. Filtered or bottled water is fine. Next is lemon juice. You can not use bottled lemon juice. Lemons are pretty cheap. I got three of them for $1 and I use about one lemon a day. The grade b maple syrup is about $20-$30. It's not really expensive because you won't even finish the bottle and if your not eating think of all the money you are saving on groceries. If that's still a little steep for you, you can use bootstrap molasses which is about $3 a bottle. You just can't use regular pancake syrup or maple syrup found in supermarkets. If you have to I would recommend real maple syrup and just make sure it is sugar free. Cayenne pepper is pretty cheap about $2-$3 per bottle. Some people use hot sauce which I don't recommend since it has a lot of vinegar in it but I haven't heard anything wrong with using it.
If you want to use my recipe here it goes:
8oz water
2 Tbl spoon lemon juice
2 Tbl spoon blackstrap molasses
1/10 tea spoon cayenne pepper
Mix the ingredients. The mixture will be dark murky brown to black and will not look at all appealing. I recommend chugging the drink fast and not sipping. I drink a bottle of water afterwards to get the icky taste out of my mouth.
The diet calls for about six of these mixtures a day. At night a tea laxative an every morning a tea spoon of sea salt in water every morning. I also take vitamins and supplements since I'm not taking in food.
Well so far so good. It's only day 1. I will post my daily weights and feelings so feel free to check in.
Thanks
Kisses from your misses 😘
