The Master Cleanse

A few of my colleagues invited me to join them in the Master Cleanse process. I may take up on their invitation in the future (they are doing it once or twice a year), if I am convinced that it is beneficial. I don't know enough about it now. Here is some information on Master Cleanse that I extracted from the Raw Food Site.

What is Master Cleanse?

For a minimum of 10 days, you drink only the lemonade mixture, made with organic grade B maple syrup, fresh-squeezed lemon or lime juice, and cayenne pepper added to spring, distilled, or purified (NOT fluoridated) water.

Why do it?

Please believe me when I say that the Master Cleanse (or the Lemonade Diet) by Stanley Burroughs is, in my opinion, the fastest and most effective way to regain your vitality and to feel the joy of living again, never mind that it will help you lose weight and give you astounding energy.

Dr. James F. Coy on Master Cleaning

In my environmental medicine practice, I attempt to identify toxic elements, physical and spiritual. Then I can help the patient avoid, protect against or detoxify them. I follow that with nutrition to promote as much additional healing as possible. In detoxification, my goal is always to use what works without further harming the patient and I use many, many things.

The Master Cleanse is simple and combines & surpasses many other detox methods. It literally has been a God-send to my practice. I am grateful to Peter for seeing, loving, and promoting the values of this cleanse.

What is detoxification?

Detoxifying literally means removing poisons from your body. Once these poisons are gone, you will feel energetic, vital, happy and healthy. It is the poisons that make us feel tired, mentally confused, irritable, unhappy, depressed and ill. Consequently you should look forward to detoxification.

My colleagues who completed Master Cleansing, said that they lost weight, felt better physically, and that they were more focused during and after the cleanse. Some sceptics in my office say that it is excessive, crazy, and that we would lose more muscle mass than fat during this process.
