My gf is going to start this program called the "Master Cleanse" soon. I'm wondering if anybody has ever heard of it and can give me information wrt its safety and what not.
The diet:
The Master Cleanser consumption pattern comprises of fresh lime or lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper mixed with water and had 6-12 times a day. An herbal laxative tea is taken twice a day, and no other food is consumed. This regimen can be followed for 10 days, and may also be safely extended to 40 or more days, depending upon a person’s physical condition.
She plans on doing it for a full ten days, but I don't think it seems safe (she's already 110 lbs and you can lose up to 10 lbs on this). I also don't know if its effective and what it cleanses and how its supposed to make you healthier.
It seems like a bunch of homeopathic all natural garbage. That said, I really don't know anything about it so I'm not going to prejudge.
