Heard Of The Lemonade Diet?
The master cleanse diet (a.k.a. lemonade diet and the maple syrup diet) is very popular nowadays. Its fame could be due to how the media has been portraying it as the diet for the stars.
The master cleanse diet has been known to make people lose as much as 20 pounds in a ten day diet period.
But the originator of the master cleanse diet hoped for it to be a cleansing diet because of how it is reportedly good a cleansing the body of unwanted toxins. However, this has also made people lose weight in the process. For this reason, the master cleanse has also earned its distinction of being a reducing diet.
The main idea of the master cleanse diet is to go on for 10 days without any solid nourishment, consuming only the lemonade.
The lemonade will be a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. Because the lemonade will have all the nutritional and caloric requirements that your body needs to survive, you will not feel any hunger pangs.
However, if you do feel hungry, there is a simple remedy to that problem. All that you need to do is to drink your lemonade until the hunger goes away. The lemonade is a natural appetite suppressant so you will effectively chase hunger away with just a few sips.
If you lead a very active lifestyle, you can always carry a bottle of lemonade around so that you can take a sip whenever you need to.
It is natural for the dieter to feel lightheaded, faint and sick during the first few days.
This is normal though and you shouldnt take it as a bad sign if this happens. You will feel such symptoms because the cleanse is already taking place and the toxins are now all in your blood stream. Go on with your diet and you will begin experiencing the wonderful effects during the third day or so.
By following this strict diet, you will be able to lose about 2 pounds for every day. If you are overweight, it would be best if you use less maple syrup to get more results. The basic time frame for the diet is 10 days however some dieters are comfortable with going with the diet for 7 to 12 days.
