For most people it’s giving up their favorite foods that have them stressing out about the Master Cleanse. This reader was wondering if she had to give up drinking alcohol while doing the cleanse…
I have done the MC once before and plan on starting for the 2nd time tomorrow. I’m going to Vegas for my birthday in just 14 days and hoping to be able to fit into my jeans I was just able to fit into 8 months ago…I’m hoping to shed some pounds. I got wonderful results the last time and looking forward to them again! This time I plan to be on the full ten days maybe a bit longer….does anyone know if you can drink alcohol on this cleanse? (weird question I know but I’m turning 21 and can’t very well not have a drink!)
While there are some health benefits to drinking in moderation (especially red wine), in order to reap the biggest rewards on the master cleanse it’s best to stay off the sauce. Having a drink is not as bad as eating a whole pizza or quart of ice cream, but it will still interfere with the detoxing process

I’m going back on the Master Cleanse tomorrow (did a fabulous ten days in May, loved your book), mainly as I had surgery six weeks ago and want to cleanse from the anesthetic, drugs, trauma of it, etc. My question is that I have been drinking “Synergy” for the past month or so, which is one of the Kombucha mushroom drinks, full of much nutrition, very few calories, and perhaps a little alcohol (less than .5%) due to the fermentation. I was considering drinking it while on the MC, in addition to the green stuff suggested. Wondering if you have any thoughts on that? Thanks so much.

Kombucha is not a mushroom drink. It is tea fermented with sugar. I would not drink it while on the master cleanse simply because it still contains a small amount of refined sugar, as well as fruit sugar, which will effect your blood sugar in different ways than the sugar in maple syrup, and probably increase hunger.
I want to know if people normal gain all there wait back after the mastor cleanse and how to prevent not gaining it back…
I think you should focus on your English and stop concerning yourself with your physical looks.
Wow Anonymous that was very rude considering Amanda was seeking information to help her healthwise. Grow up!
Friday will be my 10th and final day on the cleanse. Can I have more then a glass of wine the following day? I plan to do the ease out but its my birthday and I’m wondering how the alcohol will effect my stomach?
