Master Cleanse

I was a bit surprised that the "master cleanse" squidoo name was not taken, but I got it and I hope to share what I think is one of the best ways to detox your system.

The master cleanse also called the lemonade diet usually lasts 10 days, but some people stay on longer (I think staying on to long can lead to negative effects) and it can break down built up waste in your body, and even cure disease. 

The human body can't process every single thing that it takes in. Some material that it can't absorb or process is passed through the system in the form of urine and feces. However, a lot of that unused material can easily cling to the walls of the digestive system. Over time that can cause a number of extremely serious problems, including a complete blockage, which may even require surgery, or toxins being absorbed into the blood.

The object of going on this diet is that it is a form of fasting/dieting that is said to help detoxify the human body and clean the system. To detoxify is to remove poisons and toxic buildup.

Eating a diet that is high in fiber helps to stimulate the colon. Due to the fact that the Master Cleanse lemonade drink contains no fiber, some people drink a laxative herbal tea while on the Master Cleanse. Stimulating the colon in this way is important because, if there is no colon stimulation, then all of the toxins which are cleansed off the colon walls will still just sit in the body. By stimulating the movement of the colon those toxins are not only moved off the colon, but also out of the body.

A person's whole immune system can be affected by toxic buildup. It can cause people to get sick far more often, stay sick longer and be generally tired all the time. Any of those are a problem on their own, but those things can also cause a person to experience things like irritability and mood swings. Once these poisons are flushed out, it causes people to have more energy and get sick less often.
