The lemonade Diet, also known as the Master Cleanse is a simple mixture of ingredients that has a dramatic effect on the internal organs of the body. Almost everyone who follows the Lemonade Diet losses 1 to 2 pounds a day and some people can lose as much as 25 pounds in 10 days, depending on body metabolism and other factors. All the ingredients in the lemonade Diet are important, but the lemons play a vital role in the diet’s success by providing Vitamin C and potassium to the internal organs during the cleansing process. Cayenne pepper also contains B and C vitamins and the maple syrup adds unprocessed sugar to the diet, as well as other nutrients. The filtered water acts as a flush, which removes some of the waste that is left in the internal system. A salt water flush or a herbal laxative tea is used to keep the body clean, so all harmful toxin are removed on a daily basis.

There are several different recipes for the Lemonade, but the most popular recipes calls for 3 fresh organic lemons a day. That’s enough to make 60 ounces of Lemonade a day. Lemons are the main ingredient in the recipe. It’s important that the lemons be freshly squeezed, not prepared a day or two in advance. A one day supply of lemonade should be made in the morning and consumed the same day.

A natural herbal laxative tea can be substituted for the salt water flush.
