I'd like to meet:
Three of the Most Common Mistakes
1. Not doing all the elimination steps everyday
In Lose Weight, Have More Energy & Be Happier in 10 Days,
the author humorously says The Master Cleanse (or the Lemonade Diet as it
is also called) is divided into two parts: The Agitator and The
Rinse Cycle. By not eating, you enable your digestive system to
use its energy to eliminate old waste. Additionally, the lemonade
dissolves the old waste and the laxative herb tea stimulates the
intestines' contractions to slough off old waste.
With all that going on, if you don't drink enough lemonade and water,
and if you don't do the salt water flush each morning, you will
have mobilized toxins which are not being eliminated. The result
is you will feel tired, sick, achy and have cravings.
Burroughs does say that if you can't do the salt water flush first
thing in the morning, you must drink the herbal laxative tea every
morning as well. However, the author believes that isn't as good as doing
the salt water flush.
2. Not recognizing cravings, tiredness, boredom, etc. as
detox symptoms and not knowing they will go away with the next mornings'
eliminations.
When the author personally coaches someone on the Master Cleanse, he emphasizes
knowing what the detox symptoms are and knowing they will be gone
with the next morning's eliminations. The only exceptions found
have been caffeine headaches, which usually last 2 to 4 days.
Nearly anything can be endured for a day. However, if you think the
unpleasant sensations will continue the whole 10 days, you will
quit just when the cleanse is about to do something good for you.
3. Eating or drinking anything else but the lemonade,
salt water, herbal laxative tea or mint tea
A lady once told the author that she kept feeling hungry. After asking about
this, it turned out she was drinking some vegetable soup each afternoon.
Of course, this was creating cravings every day. So, rather than
being done with cravings after the third day, she was continuing
her cravings every single day of the cleanse.
Other people have asked about taking additional vitamins or supplements.
They don't realize, the lemonade has all the necessary vitamins,
minerals and calories to support the body for the duration of the
cleanse.
