Are you amazed at how Beyonce was able to lose whopping 20 pounds just mere days before she had to start filming Dreamgirls? Are you curious as to how Jared Leto was able to reclaim his hot body after he had put on 62 pounds to play his role in Mark David Chapman? No, it does not involve chefs making you salads 3 times a day nor does it include hiring a gym trainer.

I am pretty sure that you know something about the master cleanse diet. If you have not tried it, then probably you are intrigued by it. The master cleanse diet is originally a cleansing diet that was designed by alternative medicine practitioner Stanley Burroughs during the 1940s. Although this diet was created to be a detox diet but now it is more popular for its reducing properties.

What this diet is all about is the simple consumption of lemonade during the entire period of 10 days and nothing else but that. So basically this is a liquid diet. The lemonade that I am talking about is a mixture of fresh lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper. The maple syrup you may decrease in quantity if you want but do not remove any of the ingredients when making your lemonade. You may have to get used to the taste of cayenne pepper but never take it out.

Before you go all out on the lemonade, you will have to go through an ease in period first.

The ease-in period is a couple of days directly prior the start of the diet which will be used for your body to get ready for what lies ahead. For this particular diet, you will need to trade in heavy meals with lighter ones consisting mainly of fruits and vegetables to prepare you for the days when you will be taking in nothing but lemonade.

After the ease in period you can start with your diet. The average diet period is 10 days but then it can vary for different people. Some may want to diet more and extend it to 12 days.

However, a few may only be able to diet for a period of 7 days. As long as you follow the instructions meticulously it wont be a problem. Drink the lemonade anytime you need to or want to.

Finally, you will have to partner your lemonade consumption with laxatives. The role of the laxatives is to allow for proper movement of your bowels. You will not have any fiber in your diet of lemonade so you will have to get it from the laxatives.

The laxatives are there to solve that teensy problem for you.
