As you may already know, master cleanse diet requires you to drink lemonade cocktail for as long as the program lasts. Recommended amount to drink is at least 60 ounces a day and at most 120 ounces a day. Besides drinking lemonade cocktail, it is extremely important that you drink lots of water too. As master cleanse acts as a laxative to remove the waste in your body, water in your body is being removed too in the process. Thus, to prevent dehydration, it is recommended that you drink an equivalent of your weight in water. That is to say if you weight 148 pounds, you should consume 148 ounces of water.
For a single or a glass of the master cleanse, the recipe require that you have 10 ounces of filtered water, two table spoon of maple syrup, two tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/10 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. If you wish to make a daily servings of 60 ounces at one go then you will need 60 ounces of filtered water, 12 tablespoon of maple syrup, 12 tablespoon of lemon juice and teaspoon of cayenne pepper. But remember when you are preparing the master cleanse, you must use freshly squeezed lemon juice. This is because canned or processed juice already has lost much of its benefits.
Another important tip that you need to note is to use organic grade B maple syrup instead of sugar filled syrup. Also, Cayenne pepper is a must as they helps to break down mucus and helps to promote a healthy blood flow. Cayenne pepper is also rich in vitamins B and C. If you find your lemonade too bland, use decaffeinated tea instead of a caffeine one. Caffeine tends to constrict blood vessels. Thus, judging from the ingredients used in master cleanse, it helps promote a better blood flow so that waste and toxins can be flushed out from your body more easily.
Hoodia can be used to control your hunger pangs but used the recommended amounts. Natural laxative can be used as an alternative for lemonade. Besides helping you to control your hunger pangs too, like the psyllium husk, it will also assist in removing hardened feces from the body.
There are basically 3 kinds of natural laxatives which are recommended o be used with the master cleanse. They are herbal laxative tea, psyllium husk and sea salts. These are some of the best methods of for cleaning your intestines without using enemas. Just use the laxative twice daily, together with the master cleanse and you will get maximum benefit. As mentioned earlier, just make sure you drink a lot of water to counter the effects of dehydrations while using the master cleanse diet.
