SPLENDA Q & A'S

[vindicated]

i might try that. because just to find out that the average person is walking around with 35 to 30 lbs of poop in them is just scary to me. even if i don't have quite that much, how many pounds could i lose with a good flushing?

Jas, do you have amounts of each ingredient or do we just mix to our taste?

[Jasmine]

2 Tablespoons lemon or limejuice (approx. ½ lemon)
2 Tablespoons genuine maple syrup (Not maple flavored sugar syrup)
1/10 Teaspoon cayenne pepper (red pepper) or to taste
8 oz water, room temperature
Combine the juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper in a 10 oz glass jar w/lid and fill with the water.
Shake it up and drink. (Cold water may be used if preferred.)
Use fresh (organic) lemons or limes only, never canned lemon or limejuice nor frozen lemonade or frozen juice.


If you want to make a 60 oz, I can give you the measurements for that as well.

Thanks! So will one glass do all I need or do I need to do this a few times, or days?

[Jasmine]

Yea,

Its a cleansing "fast" so you have to do it at least 10 days, you can go more, however 10 is the minimum. You cannot eat any food. It is also recommended that you drink a laxative tea during the evening, to help eliminate waste.

You slowly bring yourself to eating by incorporating soup, and weening off the drink itself.

I have seen the benefits, I posted it awhile back.

PS. the 2nd day was killer for me. I had started experiencing headaches (caffeine was leaving), and the hunger was really killing, but I pushed myself forward and by the 4th day, I was fine. You will be suprised at the amount of waste you will eliminate, and just when you think theres no more...wow.

Vind,

I went ahead and pulled the information for you

the key ingredients to the cleanse is the maple syrup and the cayenne pepper.

Its actually good...don't eat anything while doing the cleanse.

You will quickly notice a noticeable difference in your face after 3 days of being on the cleanse

Also, Stanley Burroughs is the originator of the master cleanse. You can download his book online

Drink the lemonade mix every 1 to 2 hours. Take no other food, but do 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. This can be combined with supplements for colon cleansing such as Bentonite or Psyllium Seeds. 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. Once you begin, however, eat nothing more while you're on the fast. It's also a good idea to read Stanley Burrough's book, The Master Cleanser

GOING OFF LEMONADE FAST
Burroughs recommends a minimum of 10 days on this. You can safely do 40 days or more.
First Day: Start with 4 oz. [1/8 liter] fresh squeezed orange juice mixed with 4 oz. water. If it goes well, drink several more 8 oz. [1/4 liter] glasses of fresh orange juice during the day. Sip slowly. Dilute with water if needed.
Second Day: Drink several 8 oz. [1/4 liter] glasses of orange juice during the day -- with extra water, if needed.

In the evening make a vegetable broth (no canned soup). Use seasonal leafy and root vegetables such as: beets and beet tops, turnips and turnip greens, kale, carrots, onions, parsley, celery, potatoes, okra, one or two inds of legumes, squash, beans, a little salt, cayenne pepper and dehydrated vegetables or veg. powder may be added for flavor (no MSG or hydrolyzed protein).
Cook lightly. Drink the broth, eating only a few bites of the vegetables.
Third Day: Orange juice in the morning. At noon have some more soup with some of the vegetables. No meat, fish, eggs, bread, pastries, tea, milk, or coffee. For Dinner, have the vegetables in the soup.
Fourth Day: Orange juice or lemon and maple syrup in the morning. Fruits, vegetables, seeds, nuts for lunch. Salad or fruit for dinner.
Fifth Day: Eat normally but no junk food, dairy, tea, coffee, white flour or white rice, heavy animal proteins. If, after eating is resumed, distress or gas occurs, go back to the lemonade diet for a few days until the system is ready for food.
