The Lemonade Diet or Master Cleanse Diet or master cleanse diet, is a relatively simple process that is said to detoxify the body. Many claim that it also helps with weight loss. It has gained popularity recently thanks to celebrities like Beyonce. She claims that the lemonade diet helped her lose 20 pounds of fat. Just remember, this diet is not a pleasant process. However, if you still wish to try it, here are the steps.

The first part of the program eases you into the routine and prepares your mind and body. Your stomach will adjust to receiving less food and you will be psychologically prepared. The first part consists of three days, on the first day you can eat fruits and vegetables, removing meat and processed foods from your diet. On the second day you can only drink fruit and vegetable juices, if you do not have a juicing machine create a broth. The third day entails drinking two liters of fresh squeezed orange juice with a tablespoon of maple syrup and water to fill.

The main part of the diet is known as the lemonade diet. To succeed with this it is important to remember even though it is challenging, if you follow the instructions and prepare your meals first thing in the morning, it will go smoother.

RECIPE

You will need to gather 14 tablespoons of hand squeezed lemon juice, three 1-liter reusable bottles, 14 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper, and two liters of water. Place seven tablespoons of the lemon juice into a 1-liter bottle and repeat with a second bottle. Do the same with the maple syrup, add the cayenne pepper and fill it with water. Fill your third bottle full of water as you will need to drink it throughout the day to give your body the illusion you are full.

The second step of the diet entails drinking the lemonade and water throughout the day. When you feel hungry take a swig of the lemon mixture and follow it with several drinks of regular water. You need to drink the entire two liters of lemonade at the end of the day.

The hardest part of the diet is the third step, which is salt water flush. In essence, you drink salt water to induce several bowel movements to cleanse your system. Mix one liter of room temperature water with a teaspoon of sea salt. It is easiest to drink the solution in one gulp, but be sure to stand by the sink as your reflexes may sink in halfway through. After drinking the mixture you can go about your night until a bowel movement occurs - typically within 60 minutes of drinking the salt water. It is important to perform the flush in the evening because you will be on the toilet for a while. You must be near a toilet for several hours after the first movement. When you reach the point where you can go 15 minutes without eliminating, you are safe.

The time frame for which people stay on the lemonade diet depends; some master cleanse dieters do it for as little as three days while others can go up to two weeks. Whenever going on such a diet always consult with your physician if you have prior medical conditions. The ease-out steps are an essential process to prepare your body for regular food again. It is critical that you change your eating habits afterwards and it’s important to remember that this diet, like all diets, will slow metabolism. That’s right. You will be losing muscle during this diet and muscle is your metabolic engine.

If you started the diet with a 200 horsepower engine, you will finish the lemon aid diet with a smaller engine. The longer you stay on it the smaller your engine will be. So don’t do this for weight loss. If you choose to go on this diet, do it to flush your colon, not as an attempt to lose fat.

How to ease back into eating real foods:

First day drink three one liter bottles of orange juice with two tablespoons of maple syrup in each.

Second day drink fruit and vegetable juice or broth.

Third day you can take in all fruits and vegetables.

Fourth eat whatever you’d like, just be sure to focus on “eating clean”.

If you choose not to follow the ease-out process prepared to become nauseous and possibly sick.
