Today a reader asked if you can still benefit from doing a 3 day master cleanse instead of the usual 10 days.
Reading this blog it appears everyone is doing the 10 day plan. I can only do 3 days due to a long planned vacation out of the country. Will only 3 days work???
Thanks
The answer really depends on what you are hoping to achieve by doing the master cleanse. 3 days on the master cleanse can certainly do a lot of good. It can energize your body, clear your mind, and even help you lose a little weight.
In my book I talk more about the benefits of doing mini-cleanses and give tips on how to get the best results.
But if you’re looking to cleanse and detox your body then you’re going to need the full 10 days.

I did 5 days on the master cleanse and decided to stop because by the third day I bit a peice of chicken and the forth day I ate a hand full of french fries. I felt as if I was defeating the person of cleanseing…I also have a toddler and though he eats mostly healthy it was hard for me to watch him snack on anything from strawberries to brown rice. I was preparing all his meals….. So I am not giving up I have decided to switch to a liquid vegie cleanse which allows me one salad like dinner every night. My concern is the probiotics do I need them still and do I still need to ease into the transition of a differrent cleanse just as you do the transition off the 10days master cleanse to whole foods? Please HELP?
My boyfriend an I are on day 3 of the master cleanse, it’s going great.
He has a very labor intense job. He would like to continue the full 10 days. Is it ok to take some kind of protein supplement while on the master cleanse?
can i use grade A maple syrup
Do I have to use cayenne pepper in the lemonade mixture? Will the cleanse still work the same?
