Hi! I am very new to this MC detox and would very much to give this program a try. I understand that there are three main ingredients that are required. a) organic lemon, b)organic grade b maple syrup and c) filtered water.
I am from malaysia and it is very difficult to get organic food here. especially lemon and grade b maple syrup. is there any substitution? and can i use R.O. water (reverse osmosis water) instead of filtered water. is there any difference between filtered water and purified water?
Please help. I want to start the program but difficult to get the ingredients.
Here’s a link to a post I made about not having to be perfect to benefit from the master cleanse
Hi,
I am not interested in loosing weight (BMI 19.5) but want to detox my body. I am 45 yrs old and just a bit worried that after the minimum 10 days detox I will look haggard in my face because I will loose too much. How is this? Will the little sagging belly (fat) go away, too? And: Some people tell me that I will have a strong body odour because of the toxins getting out of my body. Any experience with that? Thanks!
Here’s a blog post I wrote about how to do the master cleanse and not lose weight

Please PLease PLease answer my question… Do you take the laxative and drink the sea salt and water? Do you do both or just 1? Also the lemonade concoction do you have to use the cayenne? I do not like cayenne at all… Thanks
I have had many test in the past 6 months that required injections into my blood system. I do a colon cleanse every year and now I want to cleanse my liver, etc. I know that vitamin 12 and B vitamins cleanse the liver, but was wondering if this lemon-ade cleanse is also for cleaning up the liver? Today is my first day on this and I am very excited about doing something wonderful for my body and continuing with eating right. please let me know what your thought is on the liver and drinking the lemon-ade mixture..
I saw this cleanse on LA Ink, and I knew I had to try it. I’m starting on Sunday, and I can’t wait. One question: What age do you think is too young to try this? I’m only fifteen but am overweight and definitely don’t eat healthy enough. My parents are all for it and I’m trying to get my mom to do it with me, I think she’d love it. I’m kind of nervous because I know we can’t completely clear out our house, but I still want to try.
This is my second time on the mc. The first time i accomplished 12 days. It feels like this time around it’s harder. I’m on my 1st day and i’m already struggling. Any mc buddies that have just started?
im starting this after thanksgiving do they have to be oranic products? how much can i drink daily and can i exercise with it?
I just completed the MC after 11 days and lost 18 pounds! This was my third time doing the MC and also the longest! It was gratifying each day to see the weight loss on the scale. I’m 44 and I feel great and the weight loss definitely shows. Now, I’m doing the ease-out process and that really helps with the cravings discipline and re-adjusting to healthier eating habits. Thankyou again for the detailed MC recipe diet and ease-in and ease-out process.
Hi I was wondering if putting more cayenne will affect the diet.
Can you excersice too ?
My dad is 70yrs old and wants to try the MC, is it a good idea for him?
Can you eat veggies when doing the master cleanse?
Hello Raylen! I wanted to thank you for your much detailed mastercleansesecrets website! I plan on going vegan after the ten day fast, and hope the cleanse will help me control the cravings for whipped cream, cheese & fish… I have been pescetarian for the last 3 years.
My question is this; about two months ago I started feeling really lethargic, depressed and my bones ached. After being sick for about a month I went to the doctors, had blood work done and figured out what was wrong with me. I have two vitamin deficiencies, iron and vitamin. I am now taking supplements throughout the day. Liquid iron in the morning, calcium magnesium citrate and vitamin d in the afternoon and at night. I have been in this routine for a month now and feel extremely better.
Is the cleanse a good idea for me right now? I need to keep taking my medications during the cleanse, and they are not organic…
Thanks so much for your help
I have a lime tree in my backyard, I only use soap and water on her. I was wondering if I could replace the lemon juice with lime juice.
