Master Cleanse Diet
A 50-year old approach to liquid dieting.
PRO
- There are no scientifically proven benefits to The Master Cleanse Diet, other than the fact you will certainly lose weight. But that's to be expected on a liquid diet.
CON
- There is no medical evidence that extreme diets like The Master Cleanse actually rid the body of toxins
- It's a short-term solution to something that needs to be a lifetime change
- The Lemonade Diet, like all extended fasts, can have adverse effects on your organ function and metabolism
- Does not provide long-term management plan
DIET and NUTRITION
The Master Cleanse Diet has you drink anywhere from 6 to 12 glasses of lemonade daily. You will not eat any other food. The Master Cleanse recipe for the concoction is quite simple, with most ingredients available at your grocer.
EXERCISE
Exercise is not addressed on The Master Cleanse Diet. It would be pretty difficult to exercise properly when you are only ingesting liquid.
EXPENSE
Master Cleanse kits start at $59, and include the founder's book, The Master Cleanser, along with the products needed to make the lemonade.
CONCLUSION
Fasting, or "cleansing" diets, are alluring to people who are looking for a quick fix to their weight woes. Celebrities are drawn to it because they need to drop weight fast for roles, or TV appearances. Maybe any possible health risks are okay for them, since they say the danger is a part of the risk they take for their career. But for the rest of us who should be thinking about a lifetime solution, look for something you can live with forever.

I liked Simply Slender diet better because it is premixed. I just had to add water. Same ingredients with more vitamins. See what you think
I saw a review on it here which is interesting, they say there are better cleanses.
yes the diet is great and my bp went from 145/90 to 116/74 p 76 but after 25 days i do feel a little weak and i will go off and do orange juice tommorrow. by the way how much calories a day are we talking for doing this cleanse i never really paid attention.
lemonade is acutally tasty and it does keep you full- but is too hard to stick with for the full 10days- and has alot of bad side effects if you think you can eat normally after those 10 days- so the "10 day diet" is more like 2 weeks and even then you must be careful what you eat... if u eat to much too quick u can do serious harm and need to have a g-tube for life... keep this in mind- if you are going to do this diet- follow it closely!!! sure the weight loss is nice! but if u wont be able to digest real food ever again.. it may make you think twice
