The Master Cleanse

The Master Cleanse is a liquid fasting program designed to detoxify the body by consuming only a specially formulated lemon-based solution for several days. It typically involves drinking a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper, and water. The idea is to give the digestive system a break, promote weight loss, and remove toxins. However, it’s a restrictive diet lacking solid foods and nutrients, which can pose health risks if followed long-term. While some believe it offers cleansing benefits, scientific support is limited, and consulting a healthcare professional before starting such programs is recommended.
