Welcome to the Lemonade Master Cleanse.
My name is Emma Deangela and I’m a alternative medicine dietitian for the last 4 years. Today, I’m here to share with you the Lemonade Cleanse as I have personally tried and tested the diet myself and found the cleanse to be extremely beneficial to detoxify our body.
It all started when a fellow colleague who is a dietitian too, share it with me. She suggested that I should also read a master cleanse book and told me that I would be very amazed by the results I’ll get after the cleanse. As a dietitian myself, I was skeptical at first but I decided to try it out and test it out myself. After all, it does not really as tough as it looks.
It is a simple diet which only need to you to follow a same routine. But the process is not a simple process. It requires a lot of sheer determination for one to overcome the hunger you will face over the 10 days detoxification.
In short, there are 3 stages you would need to follow – Pre-Cleanse, the Master Cleanse, the Post-Cleanse. Before you start, it would be best if you can read in detail and follow the guidelines carefully.
Basically for master cleanse, you can only take the lemonade for every day of the diet. You can take from 6 to 12 glasses of lemonade on a daily basis. No other foods shall be consumed during the full period of the diet.
The main purpose of this diet is for one to eliminate all the toxins and wastes hidden in the body. Hence it is essential that you have at least 2 or 3 or even more bowel movements a day. Otherwise, your body will probably feel upset. It’s only when you are not consuming any other foods, your body then starts to do all the elimination.
Doing a laxative tea or a salt water internal flush can cleanse your colonic tract. Usually one does the salt water flush first thing in the morning.
Pre-Cleanse – Preparations before Master Cleanse
Below is the whole Master Cleanse Ingredients set, including the difficult to find grade B organic maple syrup. Peter Glickman, the author who wrote a book about Master Cleanse has provides you with cheaper price for Master Cleanse. You can get it here at Peter Glickman’s site.
Before you embark on the cleanse, it is important to do some preparations for the cleanse.
- The Master Cleanse Ingredients (do go to our ingredients section as we have compared for you the cheaper pricing for the master cleanse ingredients)
- Mental Preparations
The ingredients include lemons, organic maple syrup grade B, cayenne pepper, distilled water, laxative tea, sea salt. You can also get decaffeinated natural herbal tea if you think that sea salt flush is too strong for you.
A juice machine can be beneficial to you. Helping you to juice the lemon easily while you are on the diet. It can be tiring to squeeze the lemon by hand.
The Master Cleanse Diet has been around for more than 50 years, and has gained popularity because of its amazing and almost miraculous effects. Also known as the Lemonade Diet, the Master Cleanse Diet has proven to be effective in getting rid of body toxins accumulated through years of incorrect eating habits.
Although the Master Cleanse Diet works wonders for everyone, it takes a lot of dedication and discipline to succeed in it. Just like any other diet program, the Master Cleanse Diet, or simply the “Cleanse,” entails personal sacrifice and effort. However, the results you can get from the Cleanse will improve your health and change your life for the better.

You are also required to do the salt water flush.
Mental Preparations
This is the most important step of all. Most people fail during the first 3 days of the cleanse because they underestimate the importance of having adequate mental preparations.
By mental preparations, you would need to understand the main purpose of why you want to embark on master cleanse. The stronger these reasons are, the more you will succeed in this cleanse.
Other preparations include keeping all the other foods on the table, fridge, common areas etc.
It is also wise to prepare some activities for you to do while you are on the diet. It is advisable not to watch television as advertisement would bombard you with tons of food commercials. Trust me, you will find it easier not to look at these commercials.
Staying on the Master Cleanse Diet
You will feel that the lemonade diet and the salt water flush will work wonders for your body in removing toxins and undigested matter that has accumulated in your system from years of unhealthy eating. So don’t be surprised if you see remnants of the food you have eaten many years ago expelled from your body while undergoing the Cleanse.
How long does it take to complete the Master Cleanse Diet? There’s no strict time frame for completing the Master Cleanse Diet. You can complete the entire process in one week, or even in just one day. For beginners, it is advisable to undergo the Cleanse for three days. Once you have become comfortable with the diet, you can extend the cleansing period to one week or more. Going on the Master Cleanse Diet for two weeks or more is not advisable and could do more harm than good. But then again, it depends on your preferences and tolerance for this diet program.
The Post Master Cleanse – Breaking the Cleanse
Before you are officially finished doing the cleanse, you would need to be careful when you come out of the cleanse. This is due to the fact that your body would need to adjust accordingly when you start to consume food again. Your metabolism rate has slowed down too. Without care, your body may not be able to absorb the food well and as a result, it may result in some health hazard.

Hi Corinne, we are afraid we cannot answer this question for you. You would need to ask your doctor as he is the one who understand your body very well. However, it would be better to avoid complications by not mixing the 2 medications together.
