THE LEMON MAPLE APPLE 7 - 10 DAY CLEANSING DIET
This is a very powerful internal cleansing regime, producing rapid and easy weight loss with very little reduction
of energy and strength. There is also minimal hunger as the diet is both energising and filling.
1) LEMON DRINK
For your Master Cleanse make the following cleansing drink:
In a 10-ounce glass add 2 tablespoons fresh (and organic, if possible) lemon or lime juice (absolutely no
canned or frozen juice).
2 tablespoons real (and organic, if possible) grade B or C maple syrup. (Don't use regular supermarket
Grade A maple syrup or maple-flavored syrup. They are over-refined, meaning that they are mostly
refined sugars and lack essential minerals.) NB. If you cannot get good grade maple syrup then buy
unrefined Coconut Sugar from your health shop and use one desertspoon of it.. you may use a little
Stevia (leaf extract sweetener if too sour)
Add a small pinch of cayenne pepper (to taste). Increase the cayenne to half a teaspoon slowly if you
wish. It is very good for circulation and digestion.
Fill up the remainder of the glass with spring or purified water, between room temperature and medium
hot (but not cold).
Mix all the ingredients by thoroughly stirring or shaking, and drink every 2 to 3 hours throughout the
day (6 to 8 glassfuls)
It may be more efficient for you to make up the drink in two 1 liter glass bottles:
use 4 tablespoons of lemon juice in each litre bottle.
Add 3 tablespoons of grade B or C maple syrup to each bottle or two level tablespoons of unrefined
coconut sugar
Finally add 2 pinches of cayenne in each bottle Spring or purified water (fill bottles to the top) Mix all
the ingredients by thoroughly shaking; then drink throughout the day.
Use fresh lemons or limes only, never canned or frozen lemon juice. Use organic and vine ripened when
possible.
Drink the lemonade mix every 2-3 hours. Take no other food at all except apples (see under) in
between drinks to give some bulk and cellulose for the bowels to eliminate. You will have lots of energy
and can continue working. Sometimes the 2nd and 3rd days may be a bit difficult with detox headaches
and tiredness, but thereafter it becomes easier.
Be sure to drink plenty of purified water in addition to the lemonade drink. Drink as much of this
lemonade as you want, but make sure that you drink at least twelve 1/4 liter (8 oz) glasses. The
lemonade contains all the vitamins and minerals you need.
You don't have to start your fast on the morning of the first day. You can begin later in the day, even if
you've already eaten.
It's also a good idea to read Stanley Burrough's book, The Master Cleanser. He does not include apples,
which I do because they absorb toxins in the bowel and aid bowel motions.
Note: Diabetics, refer to the special instructions on page 19 of The Master Cleanser. (Diabetics I advise
to use a pinch of Stevia powder or 2 tablets in the lemon juice with one teaspoon of Xylatol Birch Bark
Sugar.)
