Master Cleanse
By Strawberryshortcake onI dcided to try the master cleanse or lemonade diet/detox plan last year, i didn't last very long on it . The plan has you only consuming a 'lemonade'of fresh lemon juice squeezed into a glass of water, some pure maple syrup and some cayenne pepper.
My stomach and throat were BURNING!! I felt as though i had swallowed a ball of fire, it was so painful.
Lemon juice is a strong acid, and can burn a hole in your stomache, it can totally eat through it, and can rust a nail!! Now just think what it can do to your tummy when it is empty!! Just two glasses burned me up pretty bad, i couldn't imagine doing this for an entire week or so!! Not forgetting the heat from the cayenne pepper added to that!
Of course you will lose weight on this silly plan, because you won't be eating anything, i don't know anyone that has been able to complete the entire length of time recommended for this detox. My experience on it was pretty awful, i had the severe pain in my stomach all night and i couldn't sleep, i tried tums, i tried everything to try taking the burning pain away, but nothing worked.
It was pure torture, between starving and the burning, just not worth it!
