The Lemonade “Master Cleanser” Diet

The Lemonade Diet will make you pucker up AND slim down.

The Lemonade Diet is also known as the Master Cleanser Diet. It was created by Stanley Burroughs, who was an avid Naturopath, back in the mid 1970’s. It claims to clean out your system, similar to what a Detox Diet does, but also help your glands, joints, muscles and bloodstream.

The main ingredients to success with the diet are lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. If any of those three aren’t appealing to you, I would suggest a different diet plan right now!

How the Lemonade Diet Works

Of course, to be able to follow the Lemonade Diet you will need to buy Burroughs book, The Master Cleanser Book. It goes in-depth as to what you can and cannot eat, what to drink and how long to stay on the diet – wait, you don’t get to eat anything! It does offer tips for altering the diet if you are diabetic or have certain medical conditions.

Ultimately, the Lemonade Diet is liquid only. For ten days, (length varies, but anywhere between 10-21 days is normal) you only get to drink lemonade, with organic maple syrup and cayenne pepper added. NO FOOD!

The lemonade mixture is enough to sustain your body while it rids your system of all the toxins. You may experience different reactions as the toxins leave your system, but experts of the diet say it is normal.

The Inside Skinny on the Lemonade Diet

By following the Lemonade Diet, proponents claim you can safely lose two pounds per day. Since it is such a strict diet plan, getting off of it and back to normal eating is difficult. There are suggestions and recipes to follow for three days when weaning back to normality, to reduce and eliminate any potentially uncomfortable transitions.

Modifying your diet is also preached to keep the Lemonade Diet successful for the rest of your life.

Doctors and nutritionists don’t recommend this diet for any situation, (nor do we!) However, we must admit we’ve tried it for a couple days when we needed to drop a few pounds, fast.

The Lemonade Diet Recipe

It’s best to buy The Master Cleanser Book because there is more to this cleansing diet than just the drink, but if you can’t wait to get started, here it is:

2 TBsp lemon or lime juice (approx. 1/2 lemon)
2 TBsp genuine organic maple syrup, Grade B
1/10 Tsp cayenne pepper, gradually increase
10-14 oz pure water (distilled water is best)

Combine juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper with water. Drink six glasses a day. Take no other food, but do drink lots of water in between lemonade drinks.
