Master Cleanse Diet Info

If you're looking for info about fad diets, the Master Cleanse diet is one of the latest crazes. Known also as the Beyonce Knowles Diet, the Maple Syrup Diet and The Lemonade Diet, this is a diet that is an organized fast designed to help rid your body of toxins.

The intention of the diet is to cleanse the body of toxins but the side effect is that you can lose up to twenty pounds. The weight loss should be considered short-lived though, because it is more than 50% water weight loss and you will most likely regain that weight shortly after stopping the diet.

This cleansing fast / diet was created in the 1940's to help cleanse the body of toxins. By eliminating food for the 10 days and drinking a special liquid consisting of lemon juice, water, organic maple syrup and cayenne pepper and taking a laxative, you can expect to see some dramatic results.

While this isn't a good long-term goal for dieting, the fasting can help you with dramatic results in terms of body cleansing such as with your colon as well as be used as a springboard for healthier lifestyle habits. Many people who see quick results find it easier to persevere with exercise and healthier eating.

There's oodles of information sources online about the master cleanse but you should consider talking to your doctor about the safety of fasting for a period of ten days and how it could impact your specific health.
