The Master Cleanse Detox Recipe

There’s only a few ingredients you’re going to need for the master cleanse, but it’s important that you use the exact products and don’t make any substitutions.

Unlike other diets, the Master Cleanse doesn’t require any exotic or expensive ingredients. In fact it might be the most cost effective diet in history.

Main Ingredients for the Master Cleanse Recipe

• Pure Filtered Water
• Grade B Organic Maple Syrup, Formaldehyde free
• Organic Cayenne Pepper
• Organic Lemons
• Sea salt – Unrefined, (Not iodized) or Epsom Salt

Optional Ingredients:

• Laxative tea
• Natural Herbal Tea (decaffeinated)

The Main Ingredients You’ll Need For The Master Cleanser Recipe

The first one (pure filtered water) is probably the most overlooked, and disregarded step in the Master Cleanse. lets also the most important if you want to cleanse your body. Many people who won’t go near non-organic fruits and vegetables, but they constantly drink and cook with unfiltered tap water.

Your local water treatment facility does not do an adequate job of providing you with clean, safe drinking water. The standard water treatment practice is to dump chlorine into the water to kill off the bacteria, and viruses. Chlorine is a poison, and has been linked to cancer. It’s not good to consume this on a daily basis.

There’s also the risk of chemicals from corporate waste, and farm runoff – as well as the sediment and toxic metals that are found in the pipes that bring the water into your home.

Bottled water is not a good choice either. In addition to being very expensive, the manufacturing processes for bottled water are not tightly regulated.  Much of the time the bottled water you buy is not any better than city tap water – and sometimes it is just plain city water!

To make sure you get all the detoxing benefits you should make the lemonade with filtered water. You can find filtered water at most grocery stores, but a more convenient option is to own you’re own home water filter.

As for the other main ingredients the can be found at most grocery stores. A few things to keep in mind

• Use organic ingredients The goal of the Master Cleanse is to remove toxic substances from your body so stay away from ingredients that have been sprayed with pesticides
• Don’t use concentrated lemon juice If you have to you can use non-organic lemons, but you cannot use concentrated lemon juice because It’s filled with sugar and preservatives.
• Make sure the sea salt is Unrefined or Not iodized This will be used as a laxative, if salt intake is a problem for you I’ll show you another type of laxative in the Optional Ingredients below

Optional Ingredients:

The first of the optional ingredients, the laxative tea can be used in place of, or in addition to the sea salt flush. The purpose of both of these items is to increase eliminations. Of the two the sea salt is the more effective, but if you take sea salt the laxative tea will work fine. The tea can be found in most grocery stores, and is sold under different brand names. The two I use are Smooth Move and Laxative Tea

The other optional ingredients will help add some flavor to the lemonade you’re going to be drinking daily.

The beauty of the Master Cleanse lies in its simplicity. By going on this diet you allow your body to use the energy it normally spends on breaking down, digesting, and assimilating food to cleanse itself, so you add much to the Master Cleanse without taking away from its effectiveness.

But you can use herbal teas (decaffeinated) to help break the redundancy of drinking the plain lemonade all day long. These teas come in an assortment of flavors, and can really liven up the taste of the lemonade. Herbal tea can be found at just about any grocery store.

The Master Cleanse works just how it sounds; you consume primarily lemonade for the entire time you’re on the diet. So the recipes for the diet itself are fairly simple. You should drink a minimum of 60 oz of lemonade a day, but can drink more if you like. You can also drink as much water as you want. I suggest you consume your body weight in ounces of water.

Below are two different recipes. The first is for a single serving of the master cleanse lemonade. The second will make 6 servings

#1 (single serving):

• 2 Tablespoons of organic lemon Juice (about 1/2 a Lemon)
• 2 Tablespoons of Organic grade B maple syrup (not the commercial maple flavored syrup you use on pancakes)
• 1/10 Teaspoon Cayenne pepper powder
• Ten ounces of filtered water

#2 (60 oz. daily serving):

• 60 ounces of filtered water
• 12 Tablespoons of organic grade B maple syrup
• 12 Tablespoons of organic lemon juice
• 1/2 Teaspoon cayenne pepper powder

There are a couple important things to remember when preparing the lemonade.

For one, the lemon juice used must be fresh squeezed. This cannot be emphasized enough. It is necessary to use fresh produce. Canned juice won’t work and will erase most of the benefits of using the master cleanser diet.

Also, the maple syrup must be grade B maple syrup, not the sugar filled syrup that is used at the breakfast table.

The cayenne pepper might seem unnecessary, but it is actually very important. Not only does it help to add a bit of a kick, but the pepper helps to break up mucus and increases healthy blood flow. It also is a good source of B and C vitamins, commonly referred to as Super Vitamins due to their many benefits for the body.

Mixing teas with the recipe is one way to help modify things, just make sure It’s decaffeinated tea because caffeine can restrict blood vessels and we want to keep your body passages as open as possible.

 Taking a laxative will speed up the detoxing process, and help your body eliminate waste.

Ingestible laxatives like, sea salts, and herbal teas are the best choices. These are ideal methods for cleaning the colonic tract without the harmful effects of colonics and enemas.

Drinking 1 teaspoon of unrefined non-iodized sea salt mixed with 25-35 ounces of water will flush out your system.

It’s best to use either of these laxatives (or both of them) 2 times a day. It has been found it best to take them in the morning and before I go to bed.

Also, it is best to give yourself at least an hour and a half before you go out when you do this. These laxatives will work fast, and you will discover why you should probably be at home near a bathroom when you use them.
