The Lemonade Diet

When life gives you lemons...

You sure as hell should go buy some grade b maple syrup, cayenne pepper, and distilled water and do the master cleanse!

The following is all typed out by me and from my personal experience with the master cleanse.
You can do the cleanse from anywhere from 10-40 days. Good luck and enjoy!~ Marina

BENEFITS OF THE MASTER CLEANSE:
-WEIGHT LOSS
-MENTAL CLARITY
-HIGH-ENERGY
-A HEALTHY CHANGE IN SKIN, HAIR, EYES...ETC.
-A CHANGE IN OVER ALL HEALTH AND PERSPECTIVE

There is no doubt in my mind that embarking on a journey like this for 10 days or more can have an incredible life-changing effect. If you don't believe me, try it and see for yourself.

Before I list off the ingredients and instructions I suggest you make a promise to yourself for your health and well-being!
When you come off a cleanse like this you CAN NOT jump back into your old ways. You must ease your way in and out of this cleanse and you must eat healthy, organic foods.
I'm not advising that you switch to raw foods or go vegetarian or vegan (although you may want to after your cleanse for optimal health---your standard american diet perspective does change) but it is very important that you go to organic foods! Do your research!
If you decide to still eat meat, make sure it is grass-fed beef and is organic. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT! EATING A SICK, MALNURISHED, HORMONE INJECTED ANIMAL ONLY MAKES YOU SICK IN THE LONG RUN!
TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR OWN HEALTH! THIS MEANS LESS TRIPS TO THE DOCTOR, LESS MONEY BEING SHELLED OUT FOR MEDICATION AND OPTIMAL HEALTH THAT IS IN YOUR CONTROL!

EASING IN: PRE MASTER CLEANSE FOOD

Before you start the actual cleanse it is important that you ease your way in with raw fruits, veggies and liquids. If you do the easing in it is easier to start the master cleanse.
You should eat pre-master cleanse food for 2-3 days.
day 1: nuts, legumes, salads
day 2: smoothies, soups, salads, raw fruit or veggies
day 3: all liquids ie: soups and/or smoothies


WHAT YOU NEED TO BUY:

* Celtic Sea Salt

*Maple Syrup Grade B (not pancake syrup!) -you can find this at Whole Foods or Good Foods Co-op.

or Raw Agave Syrup

A 16 oz bottle should last you about 3 or 4 days.

*Organic Lemons- STOCK UP!!
ie: you might want to buy a hand juicer 

* Cayenne pepper (If you would like a less potenent flavor try the liquid cayenne)

*Distilled Water (If you decide to buy a huge refillable gallon of distilled water make sure the container has a 1 on the recyclable label. Most have 7's which release nasty harmful chemicals in your water. Even the Co-op sells these so be careful!)

* laxative tea (optional)

RECIPE:



SALT WATER FLUSH

Every morning or evening you will need to do a salt water flush or drink a laxative tea to detox your body. It is important that you do so!
If you do the salt water flush start with:

25-32 oz of distilled water and a tsp of Celtic Sea Salt
Mix well and drink.
The salt water flush isn't very pleasant and after drinking it you will most likely have to run to the bathroom.
So, stock up on that TP!

After about anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour you can drink the lemonade.

LEMONADE

This makes a days worth of lemonade

* 60 oz of distilled water

* 12 tbsp of lemon juice (2 large lemons or 3-4 small lemons juiced)

* 12 tbsp of Grade B Maple Syrup or Raw Agave Syrup

* 1 tsp of Cayenne...teaspoon that is!!

SHAKE AND ENJOY!

Note: DO NOT MAKE ANY LEMONADE IN ADVANCED UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO BE DRINKING IT THAT DAY, IT DOES NOT TASTE GOOD!

ALSO, FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, MAKE SURE YOU DRINK WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY, ALWAYS!
YOUR MOOD WILL FLUCTUATE IF YOU DON'T MAKING YOU CRANKY.
THIS IS DEBATABLE, BUT, IF YOU ARE HUNGRY YOU CAN EAT SOME RAW FRUIT. I WOULD KEEP IT TO 1-2 PIECES A DAY. A LITTLE LESS THAN A HANDFUL FOR BERRIES.
ALSO A SPOONFUL OF AGAVE OR GRADE B MAPLE SYRUP CAN CURB HUNGER AS WELL.

FOR THE FIRST 3 DAYS TAKE IT EASY!
DO NOT JUMP BACK IN TO EXERCISING. YOUR BODY NEEDS TIME TO ADJUST TO THE CLEANSE. YOU WILL LOSE LOTS OF WEIGHT FAST WHEN YOU DO START EXERCISING, SO DON'T WORRY!
TAKE IT EASY AND ON THE 4TH DAY START WITH A LIGHT JOG OR BRISK WALK AND BUILD UP!
YOU PROBABLY WILL WANT TO EXERCISE BECAUSE YOU WILL HAVE SO MUCH ENERGY!!

During the cleanse you will have cravings. They say that what you are craving at the time is what you are detoxing. 
Be strong! Think about the long run and what you truly want and not the short term fix of a hamburger or hot dog!

You will experience spurts of high energy and happiness!

The possibilities are limit less. It really depends on the person!

You may want to look up natural nutrition information while doing the cleanse for your post- cleanse lifestyle.

If you cheat, or get discouraged just keep drinking your lemonade! It's okay! It's a learning process!

To keep you motivated join some on-line forums or check out youtube for master cleanse videos...they are very motivating!!

After you have met your goal of how ever many days of the master cleanse you will need to ease out.

EASING OUT

Easing out is a lot like easing in but backwards. This is when you need to contemplate your post-master cleanse lifestyle and what kind of food you are going to be eating after the cleanse.
Easing out should take 2-3 days.
You will need to start with liquids and work your way up to solid foods.
The day you come off start with Organic freshly squeezed orange juice. 
The next day start with more fruit juices and smoothies.
The 3rd day go to raw fruit, soups, raw veggies and salads.
Then you can go to your new healthy life style! Which ever you choose!

I hope this is a wonderful, challenging, amazing, beautiful, life changing experience for you as it was for me!

Cheers to good health!

Peace Love and Happiness,

Marina :-)
