Question: Hi when you said make sure u put enough maple syrup and lemon i was wondering. is 2 tbsp of lemon juice and 2 tbsp of maple syrup in 48 ounces enough? the directions never told me how much water to add and since it said drink at least 48 ounces a day i thought thats what they meant…..confused
Good question, and I think there was some confusion with the single serving and the whole day serving. The 2 tbsp of lemon and maple syrup is for one 10oz glass. Below is the master cleanser recipe for a single serving of lemonade and a whole day batch.
For water I drink my body weight in ounces, but you can drink more if you want. I would try to drink at least as much water as lemonade, and preferably 2 glasses of water for every 1 glass of lemonade.
Water will help control hunger, flush out your system, and even reduce some of the master cleanse side effects. Just make sure you’re using filtered water. Tap water is treated with chlorine, and contains sediment from the pipes, and other nasty stuff that is not good for your body.
Master Cleanse Recipe:
#1 (single serving):
- 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice (approx ½ of a Lemon)
- 2 Tbsp Genuine Organic Maple Syrup (not Maple flavored sugar syrup you’d put on pancakes)
- 1/10 Tsp Cayenne pepper (red pepper)
- Ten oz. glass of hot water (cold can be used if preferred)
#2 (60 oz. daily serving):
- 60 oz. water
- 12 Tbsp organic Maple syrup (Grade B)
- 12 Tbsp lemon juice
- ½ Tsp Cayenne Pepper

can anyone tell me where do i find the organic grade b maple syrup
well this is day one of the master cleanse; i made an entire jug full of that lemon drink;
Unfortunately i haven’t “gone yet” i’ve drank the tea and all but nothing. i’ll just wait and see.
whats the diffence between grade a and grade b organic maple syrup?
will i be able to do the cleanse if i take blood pressure medicines
if you are on the master cleanse && u eat fruits and vegetables as well..lets say a plate of salad w/no dressing in the morning and one at night along with the cleanse and u only drink half a gallon daily..will it still work??
With this master cleanse,Are we able to eat anything?..It’s not very healthy if we do not eat anything at all, maybe some vegetables or fruit?
can you use pure honey instead of maple syrup
A few things I have noticed.
1. Grade B maple syrup can be found at Whole Foods or any health/organic food store. Also Grade B maple syrup is for recipes , not for eating alone, this is the difference in Grade A which you pour on pancakes and Grade B which is used for cooking/recipes ( yes it is more expensive than Grade A. Spend the extra money)
2. No you cannot take pills on the cleanse.
3. No you cannot eat on the cleanse – It defeats the purpose of removing toxins if your going to put them back in your body at the same time.
4. You can drink as much purified water as you want.
5. Yes, you can work out on the cleanse, but not strenuous exercise
6. You use a tablespoon of salt with the flush.
7. 10 ounces is the standard amount of water to use with the mix.
8. 1/10 of Cayenne pepper is standard, but you can add more/less to taste.
What about taking medications? Such as blood pressure, acid reflux & and anti-depressants while on this cleasne?
i lost 6lbs in 3 days already!!!!!!!!!! This stuff works wonders.
YOU CANNOT SUBSTITUTE, USE THE INGREDIANTS EXACTLY LIKE THE BOOK STATES!!!
thanks,
Teika
Does a pint equal 16 oz’s..The receipe calls for a pint and i got 16ozs. Is that correct???
first real day of the cleanse and I’m ready to stop, I’m just so hungry and not feeling it at all, my fiance is on with me and he says this is his last day lol, i really wanted to try and go for the whole 30 days but now im thinking about just the 10 cuz i can barely get through the first, i just really hope i get some good results cuz I’m hungry, lol, but all i been doing is going to the bathroom, poo, pee, pee,pee,pee poo,poo,pee, pee, pee, i don’t think i ever been to the bathroom so many times in one day, i really hope this means it is really working, i’ll keep u posted!!
TODAY IS MY FORTH DAY ON THE CLEANSE I WEIGHED MYSELF ON DAY TWO AND THEN AGAIN ON DAY FOUR. I CAN’T BELIEVE IT, IVE LOST 5 POUNDS IN TWO DAYS. I HOPE THIS IS MY AVERAGE WEIGHT LOSS, LOSING 5 POUNDS IN TWO DAYS. IF SO I WILL HAVE LOST 20 POUNDS IN TEN DAYS. THE ONLY REASON WHY I AM NOT GOING TO DO IT UNTIL CHRISTMAS IS BECAUSE I AM TRAVELING ON SATURDAY. HOWEVER, I PLAN TO RESUME ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 15, UNTIL THE 24TH OF DECEMBER. I AM IN A WEDDING THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS. I WILL INFORM YOU OF MY RESULTS ON FRIDAY. GOOD LUCK AND REMEMBER ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH DISCLPINE AND FAITH.
I am planning on doing this lemonade cleansing diet. Is it okay to use grade A maple syrup, what is the difference?
I dont have any laxatives where I live (pakistan) is it ok if I have the salt water flush instead IF YES how often do I drink the SWF? In the mornings only or at night aswell? And per serving how much in quantity? Plz reply asap I need to start this diet tomorrow or as soon as possible!
And also … If I am doing this master cleanse And im drinking lemonade all day, can I also drink water? Im seperately with no lemons or anything in it? Just pure water. If yes then how much water is okay to drink?
my first day i did the SWF and i didn’t go. I do believe i am constipated. How long until the flush works for me?

Christmas 2008 I start a MC and I’m very proud of my self. I did finished 10 days with no cheating.
I’m the one who never never can’t loose any weight but I can gain so fast. But this time I lost it 10 lb.
I felt so good like never before. Energize and happy. Today I’m starting M- cleansing again and I do plan stay on for 14 -20 days.
3 days ago I went for follow up to my doctor and my blood pressure was excellent and cholesterol almost perfect.
My doctor was happy I did told her about the M-C and she was shocked !
She told me that she don’t believe in such things and told me to stop doing that because my body suffer from luck of nutrition and not eating cost my body a drama and calories stored . I told her that I never felt better in my life being on M-C.
She said that I’m so desperate to loose weigh and prescribe for me a depression medicine. I told her that I don’t need any pills I just clean my liver and got rid of all junk from my body why I so post to poison my self again with those pills. She got very upset. I just have to keep looseing weight and I be happy. Please let me know if is Master -C is safe and how long I can be on it?
i am following thr MC but i need to know if the birth control i am taking is still effective. i dont want to cleanse and lose weight just to be pregnant again…lol
A general comment about the maple syrup, and the cleanse. Grade B maple syrup can be found at almost any health food or natural food store. I have tried the Master Cleanse once before, and am about to cleanse my body again, ( the last few weeks I have been eating as if I was on death row), have been feeling sluggish and run down. The 1st 2 days are the most difficult, but not impossible. I have an incredible and sometimes massive appetite, so I believe if I can do it, almost anyone can. I stayed on the Master Cleanse the 1st time for 2 weeks. Good luck and good health to all.
HI, I am 300lbs and I have been reading about this MC some good and some bad. I am going to try it because I feel like the good have outweighted the bad, and if people are feeling good,why not try what do I have to loose, nothing but the weight. I am going to try it for 10 days and if it does wonders, I am going to keep pressing my way until I can reach 20 days and so forth. And when I loose this weight I will be back to tell my story. Thanks and God bless
so does it have to be fresh lemonade juice no water in it and maple syrup. or water with lemonade and ms and canyee pepper 6 times a day barly can make it past 2 can you only drink it to times a day
You can get organice Grade B Maple Syrup at any Whole Foods market.
You can drink as much water as you like.
what about parasites what do i need to do to get rid of them like tapeworm or flukes can i take some herbs for parasite while im on the master diet pleas let me know
thank you
Hello, I am excited about this cleanse, and I hope it will work for me. I am on my way to the bahamas in 10 days and I need to loose some wieght, at least 10 pounds, 20 would be excellent. I went thru day one with no problems. I drink my teas as instructed, but I did not consume plain water as I should have, but I was going to the bath room every 10 minutes passing watery poop, not urinating as much. Is it normal for the poop to be watery? I’m on my 2nd day and I have not went to the bathroom nearly as much as the first day. I went walking and to the gym, and the most depressing part is when I went shopping and tried on clothes. I looked as if I was bloated and had put on weight. The salt water flush has not worked as of yet. I was less active on day one and flushed out more waste. I am still going to hang in there because I believe it will work after hearing others testimonies and after all it is only day 2. I will see what day 3 brings and keep everyone informed.
HI IM THINKING OF GOING ON A 10 DAYS CLEANSE. I DO NOT HAVE ANY FRIENDS WHO ARE WILLING TO ACCOMPANY ME ON THIS JOURNEY. IS THERE A WEBSITE OR SOME WHERE I CAN TALK TO PPL WHO ARE ON THIS CLEANSE ON A DAILY BASIS?
Hi I’m really interested in doing this clease but i did hear you can use lemon juice from a bottle rather than fresh lemons? is that true? and for the salt water flush, you have to get organic sea salt not table salt? please get back to me thanks!
Hi
im really excited tomorrow i start the cleanse, but im also worried becuase i read that you cant eat anything and.. im a big eater im always going out with my boyfriend to restuarants and i also have church every saturday and everybody makes thier delicious foods and we all eat it after church is over, So yeah.. but i really want to lose weight so im getting the stuff tonight!!!!!
Ashanti did the master cleanse and lost seven pounds in ten days and she said when she got too hungry she ate some fruit she didn’t lose as much weight as you could on the diet but she was able to eat something and eating fruit will help you be able to stay on the cleanse longer because you don’t feel like you are starving and that self presevation turns on and it is nearly impossible to not eat if it is available
greetings , i am really thinking about doing the master cleanse however i just wanted to know that if while doing the master clense if i were to mess up could my mistake effect my health in any way??? cause i know with fasting there is certain ways you can really mess yourself up with an extensive fast
how long do you stay on this diet before you pass all the yucky colon tar?? I have not felt ok since my second c section almost 9 months ago and I just keep gaining weight. I am very active at work and chasing a two year old and a baby so i’m worried to be stuck on the toilet for ten days straight… i think that if I can follow through on this diet maybe i can properly heal internally from my rough second c section
I am on my first day of the cleanse. I followed the directions on making the lemonaid exactly, but I am wondering about the sea salt or laxitive tea. I cannot swallow the sea salt solution, so this is out of the question lol…also i read that you can use laxitive pills then i have heard that you cant use pills…does any one know about this? will taking pills be as effective as the tea?
Can you eat on this diet at all?
does the master cleanse taste better warm or cold? what is the best way to prepare the drink for a day. Make the full batch for the day?
Does it need to be kept in the fridge?
