The lemonade diet - a favorite amongst the celebs!
You may believe that the concept of a lemonade diet looks really strange, specially if you are envisioning the shop bought type of lemonade which is merely a glucose based drink that obviously is not healthy!
The lemonade concerned isn't what you get from the stores. It's a mixture you create yourself and it is just called lemonade for convenience. Also, just disregard the phrase diet since what this really is, is a detox. Consider any loss of weight as a bonus.
Where does it originate from?
Nobody had really discovered the lemonade diet up until a few years ago when Beyonce made it well-known by using it to lose 20lbs in just 2 weeks for a movie part. However it in fact goes back a lot further than that.
It all began with a guy called Stanley Burroughs who published a book named 'The Master Cleanser' back in 1974 after he 'd employed his plan to get rid of a constant stomach ulcer.
In this book Burroughs demonstrated his method can be used to detox the digestive system, cleanse the colon of the waste matter that has accumulated over the years, and rid the body of toxins.
Understanding the method
The detox itself is really just one section of the overall program. You begin with an ease in stage before hand , and ease out period after that and also, you will be performing a salt water flush every morning and drinking a special laxative tea in the evenings. The purpose of the ease in phase is to ready your body for detoxing. You'll cut down on your food consumption and start to eliminate some of the toxic substances that you might eat on a regular basis such as nicotine, caffeine and sugar and.
As soon as you have gotten yourself ready with this ease in, you can then begin the real detox. You create a drink which is made with filtered water, lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper and you drink approximately 8 cups of that throughout the day but you don't consume any food.
The lemon juice and cayenne pepper both promote weight loss and offer additional health benefits. The maple syrup is there to make certain you get adequate energy that your body requires. By giving up food for several days your digestive system has a chance to rest and catch up.
Also, during this time in the mornings you do a salt water flush which helps bowel movement and you also consume a laxative tea at night. The tea helps support the 'pooping' in the flush the following morning.
What benefits can you expect?
The main benefit is to your health. By enabling your digestive system to rest it can catch up on the backlog. All that waste has been accumulating there for many years and is toxic and dangerous to the body. You can prevent and eliminate many damaging conditions and disorders by flushing your colon of all the waste material.
Burroughs initially came up with the strategy when he had been unable to get rid of a stomach ulcer. In only ten days of doing his master cleanse plan he cured himself of the ulcer.
Eliminating that waste will make you lighter so you could expect some loss of weight. The quantity you lose will depend on just how much waste you have to start with. Not eating any food whatsoever for as much as 10 days is rather a drastic thing to undertake and if you just intend to is drop a few extra pounds, then there may be less extreme eating plans you could try. But the lemonade cleanse isn't really developed with fat loss being the main goal. Sure you will experience some weight-loss but that is due to the fact that all the waste material (poop!) that has collected in your colon for several years or possibly even decades will at last be flushed out!
Other advantages include having more vitality, clearer skin and just feeling better and healthier generally.
