A Master Cleanse diet usually aims to the complete Detoxification of the body. The misconception about Master Cleanse is that it is a tool for losing quick weight, although the truth to certain extent is that shedding of those extra pounds does happen in Master Cleanse but this shouldn t be considered as the only reason to follow it, the main purpose is to Cleanse the body from within.
Well exercise is not recommended during the master cleanse, but if an Individual is doing a daily regime of exercise then he can continue doing it. Every once in a while the body needs to be cleansed of stored fats and toxins. There is a process that can help remove unwanted toxins out of the body. This process is called detox.

Special lemonade needs to be made and consumed to enable the detoxification. The lemonade consists of fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and spring or purified water. The maple syrup supplies the sugar needed for energy and needed minerals, since you will not be eating any food. The cayenne pepper breaks up the mucus and dilates the blood vessels. It is estimated that it will cost about $7.50 per day to make the lemonade, as well as the salt water mixture and laxative tea that are also recommended.If you get sick of the lemonade, you can occasionally have some mint tea to give your taste buds some variety. The Master Cleanse Diet plan promises that you will not feel hungry, but if you do, drinking some extra lemonade or water should eliminate any hunger pain within ten minutes. The rapid weight loss does come with some unpleasant side effects, such as food cravings, irritability, boredom, headaches, fatigue and burning bowel movements.
