Summary: 9 days were enough for conclusions
Review: Us usual there is no gain without pain. I and my wife haw suffered 9 days on this diet. Results are us follows.I have started with 256 lbs of weight. First 5 days I had lost 12lbs. My weight after that, at 244lbs, has not dropped any more. Similar was with my wife with starting weight of 120lbs and 6lbs drop. I have maid then some calculations and found out that day intake at 18 tbsp (medium of the proposed dose) of maple syrup gives you 900kcal. What a surprise! I need to take 3200kcal to maintain 256lb weight (surely I would like to weight less) so day intake was about 1000kcal - 3200kcal = - 2200kcal short. If you know that 1lb of fat has 3500kcal then you can calculate that I could only drop 2000 / 3500 = 0.6lb per day. My wife with daily needed 1800kcal, then has 1000kcal - 1800kcal = - 800kcal minus, which gives 800 / 3500 = 0.2lb drop per day. What we lost more was water from our bodies and some dirt (mucus) material, and this weight will return when we will eat again. If you want more, then you must do something physical. I'm also not sure if I only lost fat and mucus (toxins), but book points to that. Additional information: To drop 1 lb with swimming you must swim for a 16000 yards. Energy (fat), as we know from physics, can not simply banish, you must transform it. We are good machines and do a lot of work with a little needed fuel (which is unfortunate for quantity of food we intake). Also medical changes are not detectable. I was dizzy for first four days, but other days were better. I had no energy lifting only some relaxing in my abdomen area and easier breathing. I made a list with my health problems and almost nothing was cured. Ok, I made a rest for organs which should be good. I hear and smell better, but that was not what I mainly wanted.

Summary: Safe, Effective, Inspiring
Review: 2 pounds a day! Intrigued? In 10 days you can be 20 pounds lighter, no lie! I have read and re-read this book about 5 times and each time I become more and more inspired to eat the right foods. This book will help you achieve the weight you want and it will also cleanse your system of all the calcium deposits in your joints, the mucus from your organs and the fat around your entire body. This cleanse requires at least a 10 day fast drinking only the Lemonade drink as specified in the book. And I was amazed at how easy it was once I was determined enough. I recommend this to everyone I know that wants fast and actually LONG lasting results. I never gained the weight back, no matter how terribly I ate because it is easier for fat to stick to sticky fat inside your body rather than a smooth muscle. I love this cleanse and will continue to promote it. Try it and you'll never eat those fast foods again!

Summary: I feel this book has a lot of credibility.
Review: I have been on the Lemonade fast twice in the
last year. The owner of a very well known health food store in my area had recommended it to me. I experienced a number of positive health benefits. Naturally I'm convinced it works!
My blood pressure went down, my skin cleared
up, and some previous joint pains had minimized. I
felt very joyful on the 9th day of the lemonade
fast. I would not say its easy to follow, but
for me the health benefits made it well worth
any discomforts or inconvenience I had to endure.
I lost about 16 lbs., after following the regimen for
ten days. I've maintained about half of that. Its
my understanding that lemons have a diuretic effect, so I
did not really expect to keep all the of initial weight off.
Its stated that its not a diet, but is primarily for the
theraputic benefits of removing toxins from one's
overall cells & vital organs. It really does seem
to be what happens. I was convinced of this early on. I
squeezed a tissue at arm's lengh, when quiet outside, and I
could hear it, almost like a leaf rustling. My hearing
was being restored ! I remember this to be quite dramatic !
Its explained in the book the tongue will become a bit cloudy.
on the 3rd or 4th day. Its explained that it will turn all pink on the 9th or 10th day; this really did happen for me, as proof positive that toxins were leaving my body! I was a bit
amazed at this, along with the other positive changes.
I didnt eat any solid foods for 10 days. The regimen
consists primarily of organic Grade B Maple Syrup or molasses,
plenty of organic lemons, along with a dash of cayenne
pepper, so that one does'nt become chilled, as I understand it.
I was very pleased with the good results from following the
regimen explained in this book. I plan to go on it again.
Anyone who is - or plans to undergo the lemonade
fast, please feel free to contact me to share your story.
I would welcome the positive feedback. Good luck !

Summary: LIFE CHANGING, if you let it be
Review: I read some of the different reviews on this site. I would encourage those who have problems with hunger to DRINK MORE LEMONADE. It helps tremendously. Also, if you want to exercise, take it easy, but excercising is a MUST for the proper results. Mr. Burroughs also says that dizziness, fatigue, and nasea are normal!! This is when the elimination is so important, so make sure you ALWAYS herbal tea at night AND salt water (distilled only) in the morning, ALWAYS. The more of this you experience means the more your body has to release. Some people are really, really sick and toxed up and don't know it until symptoms pop up, but do you want to stay that way, OR go somewhere and get temporary relief? It will come back to haunt you sooner or later! Instead don't wait. Take control NOW. Stick it out, and pray for renewal of mind. :)

Summary: Energized and content
Review: We are still drinking the lemonade, and always plan to. My husband and I stayed on the diet for 9 days. We could have gone longer, but our granddaughter was getting married and we needed the extra day to "come down" from the diet. We had started with a 3-day diet and liked the lemonade and the results. So we just started drinking it after the fast, and kept losing mucous and junk. We eat veggies, fruit, and beans & rice, mostly. We have grown to love eating that way. Before we started our 10-day fast, we took a trip to ID. We drove 18 hours straight from KS to ID. We had energy all the way. We ate veggies and drank fruit smoothies all the way. It was wonderful. We had all the energy we needed to stay alert. I have arthritic knees, and they didn't get stiff at all. Each time I got out of the car, I was able to stand without pain. We were happy and content on the whole trip. When we got home we immediately started our 10-day fast. We never got hungry. I missed the veggies and Dave missed the beans & rice sometimes, but we were NOT hungry. We both felt so clean and content, knowing that we'd lose the toxins and mucous. We use very hot ceyenne pepper...180,000 hu. We put it in our 32 oz bottles. We love the bite. We have been off the fast for 9 days now, and are still drinking the lemonade and drinking the tea. We are eating our regular healthy food, and are still losing toxins and mucous. We don't eat meat or dairy, or any of the poisonous foods on the supermarket shelves. We do most of our shopping at coops. Shopping is so easy now. No more wandering down endless aisles at the supermarket. What we buy may cost more, but we're saving on all the other ... stuff that we're no longer eating. It's such a satisfying and healthy way of eating. We will continue to drink the lemonade and do the fast every so often. We buy our maple syrup and ceyenne pepper on the Internet. It saves us lots of money. I am so thankful for the book, that my daughter found on the Internet. She is starting the diet today for 10 days. I want to try it again for about 20 days soon. I feel very healthy and clean and am full of energy, which we did not have before. There is such a difference. Hope that you younger people will try it too. Most of my children say, "that's fine, if you can have that much will power to drink the stuff, and if that's the way you want to eat, but we want to eat our way, so please don't push your lifestyle on us." I know that it's age talking, but I want so much for them and my grandchildren to also be healthy. It is life-changing. Please try it.

Summary: Not that easy
Review: I bought this book about 6 weeks ago and prepared myself to get started last weekend. So I did. The first two days were hard, as I expected. But the following days were just as difficult!!
It was said that after the 3rd or max. 4th day you would feel great and not hungry at all. I am now on my 6th day and I am still hungry. Althought I don't have any headaches anymore, I can't say that I am up to walking a couple of miles. I even took time off work to do the cleansing and I am glad I did. I did lose 8 lbs so far but my fatty tissue is not disappearing, meaning I didn't lose in inches. I will definately stick to the cleansing for the suggested minimum of 10 days and do the break off, probably lose some more weight and hopefully feel better after this time. Bottom line really is that I admire the people who cleanse while they go on with their daily routine and have all the benefits of the cleansing but I know for sure I will not do this again for this period of time. Maybe a weekend but that's it. The book itself is clear on everything but the suggested menu for your daily life is not what I believe in. I think you will me missing out on a lot of minerals and vitamins.

Summary: Excellent Program!!!!
Review: This program is AMAZING!! Even though I just wanted to cleanse my body, the 16 lb. weight loss was an added benefit. In order for this program to work effectively, you MUST follow the instructions. Don't skip the laxative tea! You have to prepare your mind for this experience. But once your mind is set, your body will follow. Take Care & God Bless.

Summary: Spring Cleaning
Review: I was introduced to the Master CLeanser six years ago by a friend who swore this was THE ONLY FAST/DIET to try. We did the fast together about once a year for five years and what a difference it has made in my life. I highly recommend this book to people who not only want to lose weight but experience a difinitive form of clarity in their lives. Cleansing with the Master Cleanser is a great way to start your spring cleaning!

Summary: Giving a Gift to Yourself
Review: My mother introduced me to the Master Cleanse after we had a discussion on fasting and cleansing your body. The emphasis for me was not to lose weight, but to eliminate my body of undigested food caught in your intenstines that does in-fact cause disease and general unhealth in your body. I am generally a healthy eater, rarely eat meat, refuse fast foods or frozen foods, drink a liter of water a day and am physically active and weigh appx. 115 pds at 5'5". This fast gave me energy and complete peace of mind because I knew I was doing something good for me! I take the time once a year to eliminate the waste that is in my body and that might be causing disease. One other fun results, I've always had cellulite on the thighs and every year I do this fast I eliminate all the cellulite - my thighs look georgeous! Usually it stays away for a few months, but returns after I resume a normal, but healthly diet -this return of cellulite indicates to me the level of chemicals that are processed in our foods and how they really do impact your body! I wish you good luck and a cleanse that will bring you a healthy life!
