Our body automatically creates fat cells to protect itself from these existing toxins. So without flushing out these toxins from our system, we will not be able to rid the fats for good.

I weighed about 171 pounds in 2005 before attempting the lemonade diet. At a height of 5 feet 7 inches, I am definitely in the overweight category. My waist was 34 inches (the heaviest moment in my life) and my face looked very bloated. Within 10 days of the master cleanse, I managed to lose 9 pounds and sustained the weight for about 1 year. This is accompanied by healthy diet of raw foods, live foods, and nutritional supplements.

My second attempt a year later resulted in a further 6 pounds of weight loss. The interesting thing is the second cleansing did not make me lose weight as much as the first try, but my waist continued to drop from 32 inches to 30 inches.

The feeling, during and after the lemonade diet, was amazing. I am able to keep my energy level up throughout the day. I did not feel the usual lethargy getting out of bed in the morning. This struck a lot of my colleague’s attention. Of course, it is usually the gradual and consistent weight loss that made many female co-workers asking what I did.

So let me start sharing the master cleanse ingredients:

• 40 large lemons or 80 limes (try to get the organic ones for a healthier choice)

• This is an amount enough for five days. Quantity more than that might cause the lemons or limes to spoil before reaching the tenth day. So buy half the quantity required first.

• Prepare at least 80 fl. Oz of Organic Grade B Maple Syrup

• Half a pound of non-iodized sea salt

• 2.5 ounces of cayenne powder

• 1 box of herbal laxative tea bags

• About 5 gallons of spring or purified water but anything more than that would be good as your daily drinking water rather than fluorinated water. It is important not to drink fluorinated water because it is a chemical that can accumulate within our body and increase risk of cancer.

After going through the above shopping list of ingredients for your lemonade diet, let us begin discussing about the further important features of the Master Cleanse diet program.
