Master Cleanse Secrets to Lose Weight
The Master Cleanse was never actually designed as a way to lose weight, it was intended as a way to get a healthier body through flushing out the toxins that modern eating habits, lifestyle choices and environmental pollution force our bodies to collect. However, experience shows is that many people do also lose weight while they are detoxing through the Master Cleanse diet, and let’s face it, many of us could stand to lose a few pounds as we give our bodies a thorough detox. That means the Master Cleanse has a two-fold advantage to our bodies.
Detoxification is crucial for any weight loss program. When you eat less and drink more, more toxins will be flushed out of your body, leaving you healthier, more energized and more than likely, thinner. To detoxify your body completely, you need to follow the Master Cleanse instructions closely to get the most benefit.
The Master Cleanse diet consists of nothing but a specially made and delicious lemonade drink for the entire dieting period which is generally 10 days. Nothing could be simpler than that!
The popular master cleanse diet recipe consists of:
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons Grade B maple syrup (Grade A contains too much sugar so using the correct maple syrup is key to maximizing your detoxifcation and weight loss on the Master Cleanse diet)
Pinch cayenne pepper (spices increase metabolism, aiding weight loss and flushing out toxins more quickly)
10 ounces warm, pure filtered water (not tap water as that contains more impurities than you even want to think about!)
As your sole diet will be made up of drinking this delicious mixture several times daily, you will be consuming fewer calories than usual, so weight loss is likely.
You can also drink herbal, organic laxative tea in the evening to aid bowel movements. Restoring the healthy passage of waste products through your bowels will also significantly aid your weight loss efforts.
Therefore, the Master Cleanse really can help you lose weight as well as get healthy. You won’t even have to think too hard about it as the instructions are all there for you, but the ’secrets’ if there are any are:
- Make sure you avoid Grade A maple syrup;
- Drink a herbal laxative tea each evening;
- Make sure you drink sufficent pure water throughout the day in addition to your Master Cleanse drink.
