Master Cleanser... Have you tried it?

Tweet

Hello I am here to talk about the Master Cleanser diet created by stanley burroughs (sp). This diet is a strict detox diet where you consume only water, a lemon drink, and a tea laxative. It is said to do this diet from 10 to 40 days. I have done this once before for 5 days. It was really close to thanksgiving though and my mind set wasnt right so I came off of it so I could eat all the yummy food at thanksgiving. Well I am at it again now. I plan to go the minimum of 10 days and see how I am feeling and then if I feel good I may take it a little further. I doubt I will go the whole 40 days. I am also substiting one lemon drink a day with a herbal green tea to give me a pinch of variety and to keep my metabolism steady. My body is in need of change and my mind needs help because I am one of those people obsesed with food. It is like my addiction. I dont eat it constantly or anything like that...but I get real excited about food...junk food..unhealthy food. You are supposed to go to a more healthy natural food lifestyle after the diet which I plan to do. I am doing the diet to cleanse my body of toxic wastes and to get a clear mind and to help give me strength and will power. Its mentally and physically empowering. This fast is supposed to be a natural way of allowing the body to heal itself. It helps prevents many diseases (or so the book says and people who have tried it has said). Losing weight is a great positive to this diet. Although I know I will gain some of it back. But the only way I would gain all of it back is if I went back to the same exact lifestyle I was living before. And I dont want to hear it is not to lose weight because if you read the book it says it can be used as a reducing diet as well. Although, that is not my main purpose. Anyways has anyone tried this diet? If-so how long did you go for? What was the experience like for you? Did you feel clean afterwords? Did you lose any weight?
