This diet is a really good cleanser (called "The Master Cleanser", by its creator though) and is definietly worth a go. Im on my second say and already im feeling improvements. Be warned though, it is essentially a fast so you gotta do your research and do it proper bo.
Drink 6 times a day:
juice half a lemon 2 tablespoons organic maple syrup pinch camen pepper warm water
also drink green tea, water at your wish. Every night drink a laxative tea before bedtime, this helps flush your toxins out.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!

that shit is retarded. if anything it will make your body produce more toxins by not using proper metabolic pathways. its like getting sore when you running, not enough O2 your body switches up metbolism. nto enough of a vitamin yoru body will change ect ect.. best thing is to eat a balanced diet lots of fiber and drink your tea and such aswell. the good feelign you have is endorphins.
survival of the fittest at work.. sorry man but its really hard for me not to comment on this shit. i mean those kids in africa must have liek no toxins or parasites in them at all, shit they dont eat for months.

Retardation speaks for itself. If you're gonna slam something at least understand it first. a sentance like "if anything it will make your body produce more toxins by not using proper metabolic pathways" tells me everything I need to know.
Dude its a cleanser, a detox. A bit like a fast. You do it for a week or two then revert to a healthy, balanced diet. It contains more than enough vitamins, you're getting the juice of 4 lemons every day and maple syrup is an extremely rich source of a whole variety of vitamins and minerals. My combining it with laxitive tea you are essentially cleansing your body of a whole load of toxins that build up, its an excelletn thing to do, I highly recommend it, did it for 10 days and I lost some of my excess weight and felt a whole load more active and healthy. Skin improved, I had less spots and bleamishes; all in all it was very positive.

if you drink lots of water and eat healthy teh same thign happens. perhaps you dont know much about metabolism i am no expert but i have learned enough to know what happens when your energy starved and vitamin and mineral starved. it is also really bad for your bowels not to have food in them the acids in your stomache do a number. ask any credable doctor... but yea glad you feel better and i know people that do it to and like it.
peace
ps i dont really get what yoru quoting me is getting at. its true. but if all you want to do is get rid of shit in your bowels then there you go.

I totally agree. If you're a fatass or a tweaker looking for a good way to lose weight (which will mostly be WATER WEIGHT) than yes. This is a great way to......clean....your body..... 
If you care nothing about your muscle composition and would rather your body to metabolize it after it's done with the fats...sure.
If you want to clean your body, stop shoving fast food in your face and eat CLEAN. Jesus christ. Its not my body, so im not going to get hyped up on it anymore.
Just because a little indian man could do it doesnt mean that it's right for you.
Best of luck though.

OK...lets agree to disagree. But I find it hard to comprehend that you know what's good for my body better than I do. How d'you know I'm not an Indian? What the fucks that gotta do anything? Ooops....I mean yeah, I guess you're right.

My diet is essentially vegan apart from milk, and I occasionally eat fish...considering going the full vegan whack and seeing what I make of it.

did you know it is next to impossible to get all the protiens you need from a vegitarian diet again you can survive but a wide range of foods i always best. not all meat not all vedgetables. and if you are a vegan you need a even more varied fruit nut and vegetable diet. even one kind of meat does nto have the proper protiens and amino acids. anyway just food for thought. did you know soy contains pseudo estrogens ?? nice skin, bad for hormone balance.

Blatant Misinformation. It's not even close to impossible. Most people are just completely ignorant of how a properly balanced vegetarian diet works. If you don't eat meat, you need to get complete proteins from other sources, this is accomplished by combining beans and rice, legumes and grain, etc.. eating plenty of nuts to get all your amino and fatty acids.
And soy does contain isoflavones. But it doesn't fuck with estrogen balance and make you grow breasts and make your balls shrink or whatever crap the bodybuilding industry is spewing out lately. Nice try though.
Did you know soy can seriously help prevent prostate cancer, heart disease, and osteoporosis ? Is an excellent source of fiber, enriched calcium, high quality digestible protein, and rich in important minerals. As with anything though, it should be taken in moderation.

actually about the soy and teh estrogens, i was told this by doctors whos expertise is Hormone replacement therapy for women so if anyone would know its them. And yes i agree with you moderation being key. there is way to much estrogen already in our environment its insane.
and for the complete amino acids with vegetarian diet this was taught to me in a plants and human affairs university class. and we looked at all of teh grains legumes rice ect ect. and how it doesnt cover them all and including fish is very important to maintaining healthy diet. our bodys are made to eat meat, once chimpanzees started to eat meat that is when evelution of our brains began to grow in size aswell as our stature. so take that as you want. and just as a pretty general rule animals that eat meat are smarter braisn crave protienhaha
so i dont think i have had any blatant misinformation unless numbers or the amounts of protiens ect analyzed in the foods was wrong ???
and as long as your completly healthy and feel good no one can argue with that.
oh and this is pretty weird and i dont know how much truth there is in it but here it is. my auntie used to be a vegitatian for many years read books ect full deal liek you guys. anyway she noticed that she was way less healthy when she did it after teh years passed eatign all teh legumes adn grains you can think of. so she stopped and went to a shrink. the shrink told her sometimes people become vegitarians to make themselves suffer. its a sort of self masicism because of other issues. anyway that is jsut somethign to think about with all this fasting ect (fasting seems liek causing suffering too) oh and peopel that exercise insane unhealthy amounts is also in this category i believe. anyway take it as you will.
peace
PS what is enriched calcium???

I personally eat a little meat (especially fish...) but I know several vegetarians who are extremely healthy and always full of energy - they just know how to eat right. Nuts are extremely high in essential amino and fatty acids.. and most people don't include them in their diet. Fact is you don't HAVE to get your complete proteins from meat.. that's just the easiest way for most people since meat products are so prevalent in our society. That, coupled with the fact that our schools teach basically nothing about basic nutrition.
As far as chimapanzees eating meat I wont even go there as that is more speculation than fact and doesn't really have anything to do with this topic.
As far as soy and estrogen (which is usually linked to lower testosterone levels..)
Quote:
Re: Can too much Soy lower Testosterone levels?
There is no evidence that the consumption of soy, which contains estrogenic compounds known as isoflavones, will cause you to "lose testosterone". Humans have been consuming soy as a source of protein for thousands of years, particularly in southeast Asian populations.
The primary issue of concern at present is HOW MUCH soy to consume to prevent/treat prostate cancer. The fact of the matter is, we just don't know the answer, because the necessary clinical trials in humans have not been conducted. The evidence to date is from population studies, i.e., observing the dietary habits of populations which consume high amounts of soy (e.g. Japan) and noting a lower incidence of prostate cancer. In the case of Japan, it has been noted that, upon autopsy, Japanese men still have prostate lesions, but they are MUCH SMALLER--not having progressed to a clinically evident state which would pose a problem. This would indicate that something in the diet is preventing the GROWTH of prostate tumors, and this has been shown in animal studies with soy compounds. Exposing prostate cancer cells in culture to isolate components from soy (isoflavones and protease inhibitors) can significantly reduce prostate cancer cell growth. Also, in animals, soy has been shown to inhibit the growth of prostate cancer.
So, what is needed is a clinical trial in men at high risk for prostate cancer (i.g., elevated PSA levels) or who have been diagnosed prostate cancer. Such a trial is ongoing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham under the direction of Dr. Stephen Barnes, but it is not yet finished. However, the men in the study are consuming 20 mg/day of soy protein isolate which contains 20 mg of isoflavones--not an extremely high amount and a level that can easily be obtained through dietary means. A list of foods (per 3.5 ounce serving) has the folowing amount of isoflavones:
green soybeans = 135.4 mg roasted soybeans = 162.5 tofu = 33.7 tempeh = 62.5 textured vegetable protein = 138.2
I think that incorporating moderate amounts of soy protein into your diet is a wise decision.
Clare M. Hasler, Ph.D.
There is also this - http://www.csmc.edu/3421.html
But pertaining to the original topic.. the "Master Cleanse" It works.
It's a detoxifying diet, not a replacement diet. Lemon is an extremely powerful cleanser for the body, and is high in vitamins. Additionally, it is the only fruit or vegetable to contain cationic and anionic minerals. Lemon also helps to loosen and break up mucus.
Cayenne pepper is a well known herb, the most powerful herbal stimulant known to man. It stimulates blood flow, strengthening the heart, arteries, capillaries and nerves. They are loaded with vitamin C, and have more vitamin A than most anything you could grow. Also having fair amounts of zinc, iron, potassium and niacin.. It also greatly aids the digestive system by stimulating the production of saliva and gastric juices.
The maple syrup provides energy from an unprocessed sugar. I have also heard of using raw honey in leui of maple syrup.
The laxative is used to stimulate peristalsis of the colon since there is no fiber on this 'fasting' diet. The laxative is used to remove waste as the cleanser is removing it from the colon wall.
The diet is meant to cleanse and detoxify the body and stimulate healthy tissue growth. It is not a replacement diet or one for losing weight. One should only do it for a couple days, then go back to eating a healthy, balanced diet (with plenty of fiber..). The colon will not atrophy from lack of bulk. And you will certainly not suffer from vitamin deficiencies in a couple of days, especially since this is loaded with the essential vitamins for bodily function and powerful antioxidants. It is simply meant to cleanse toxins from the body, and it does a very good job of doing such.

Well dude that's exactly it. Human beings are the only animal that has reached the point in evolution where it can make decisions about its diet. (And by the way we're not evolved from chimps ) I have made the informed decision that the best diet for me is vegetarian, I know for a fact I get all the protein, vitamins etc I need, I don't do it for the purpose of self-punishment, I like the fact that no animal has to die so that I can exist, and I dont think anyone can tell me otherwise.
Anyway, I don't have a problem with anyone eating anything. People can eat whatever the fuck they want as far as Im concerned (with exception of all that nonsense about Thai, Chinese etc eating endangered species).
If you want some help understanding the vegan diet I highly recommend this amazing film! Give it a try, you might learn something
