Hi Raylen,
I have a concern that I would like some advice about. I think the Master Cleanse would be very beneficial to me since I have not detoxed in over 10 years and to clear up my acne. However, I really don’t want to lose the weight since I weigh 105 pounds. Is there anything I can do? Please advise.
Thank you!
You said in your newsletter that 10 days was ok, but 30 days was too long to stay in the MC. If you want to go passed 10 days, what is a safe range?
what if you only drink 3-4 lemonade drinks a day instead of the required 6 ? Will I still lose weight and is there a differences?
Where can the pre-made and measured ingredients for
the lemonade be purchased?
Hi,
I’ve been doing the cleanse for about 9 days (no cheating) and I’m so proud of myself. Today, however, when I woke up to use the washroom, soft BLACK feces came out of me. It really freaked me out and I wanted to know what this meant and if it has happened to anyone else. I definitely need to know if this is common and if I should expect more because it really freaked me out!!!! Please answer,

Can you take vitamins were on the master cleanse
I’ve read numerous people asking if they can take anything for headaches. I am assuming the answer is no, but wanted confirmation before I start the cleanse. Thanks alot.
I’ve been on tne master cleanse for 11 days. I started to get hoarse and am still hoarse and not able to speak normally after a whole week. Please give me some feedback as to what you think might have happened. I await your reply. Thank you. Sincerely, Norman Tong P.S.I stopped the master cleanse when I became hoarse
Dear Raylen,
Thanks for sending me the emails, they are very helpful.
I have a question, that might be answered in a book somewhere, but I cannot afford to buy it so I am attempting to ask you.
What are the different bodily stages that I will go through while detoxing? I mean, like what can I expect throughout the process? What is being “cleansed” during the process? Am I making sense? I’m sorry if I sound confusing. I saw that your site touches a bit on some things here or there but I would like a more deeper explanation. What will happen to my heart/kidneys/liver/lungs, etc. What is the cleaning process. My blood cells, my sinus’. etc.
If you can understand my crazy question, then could you possibly answer it for me?
Thanks so much and keep up the great work.

I’m going to start the cleanse in a week. This will be my 2nd time. I am a smoker and heard the cleanse is a great way to quit by eliminating cravings but I didn’t quit last time. Any advice for this time? Thank you!
Hi, I just finished my first 3 day cleanse, had discomforts as others, but tolerable.
I was reading about a partial cleanse. Will you explain how to start this and the amount of lemonaid drink.
Thank you so much for your news letter, it has been very helpful.

Hello my friend and I are going to start the cleanse this weekend and were wondering if by chance we start to fail what foods or drinks can we take and still be able to cleanse our body successfully ?
I like to know if it is safe for diabetics to use the mastercleanser.I would think the maple syrup would raise blood sugar levels or somthing.I work at Wild Oats,a store like WholeFoods,and I’ve done the mastercleanse succesfully twice.I enjoy telling other people about it,but I’ve gotten the question a few times about if it is safe for diabetics,please write me back.
I haven’t read anything about drinking water while on the cleanse. Is it o.k. to drink purified water or does this water down the lemonade solution? I’ve been on the cleanse for 7 days and have only lost 2.5 lbs. Could I be retaining all the water I’ve drank? Could it be that I just don’t have many toxins in my body? Help!
Hi… I read that you shouldn’t stop the cleanse until your tongue turns pink again. Is this true? My tongue turned white and now it’s yellow. I’m on Day 7. Is it best to continue the Master Cleanse until my tongue is back to being pink again?
I am entering day 3. I am having hunger pangs. I do drink the water but it is still happening any suggestions? Also about the whitening of the tongue what exactly is that about? I noticed my tongue looking a bit pasty guess that is normal…
looking forward to your newsletter
I ‘ve been on the MC for 3 days now with no cheating and i haven’t had any bowel movements but once. I have been drinking 6 cups or more a day. I have been taking herbal tea laxatives instead of the tea. Could it be becuase i’m not doing the salt flush. What am i doing wrong?
Is it suppose to be brown in color or did I make it incorrectly? Does it suppose to taste like this? HElP!!!
Can I get a hard copy of your book instead of downloading. I’m one who likes to lay on the floor and read and I’m afraid it will be too much to print. Also, this is my first time. I was really psyched up about doing it until the day for me to start. I think I’m scared I will fail or I’ve just lost my mojo. I will still proceed. This is more than just to cleanse for me, it is also spiritual. Any advice. I’m nrevous. everytime I think of what I’m about to do, I get a hot wave all over my body. ooooh!Thanks, K
Hi i want to start the diet but i need to know if i can use this diet if i am on blood pressure medication and a pill called femara that i use as a hormone suppliment.
Hello again, this is Kay! I know you haven’t had a chance to answer my first eMail yet, but I had another question I thought I’d shoot in here. I smoke. Am I supposed to be fasting from smoking, too? How does that affect the effect of the fast? Please answer soon. I need a smoke and I’m trying to hold out until I hear from you. Can i do this?
I am going to start the master cleanse diet this friday, and I work out in the heat in the desert in las vegas. does this pose a problem as far as my body goes? can the body handle it and exercise while on the clense? thank you for your information, sincerely , Tony
what does the cayenne pepper do for you?
you know, the first time i cleansed with this fast, i was in 1970’s SoCal utopia…it is interesting how great ideas never die out…ok. here is the question: could one use fresh ginger juice in place of cayenne, for some of the lemonade? considering the metabolism-revving purpose of the cayenne, i cannot imagine it to be a problem, although i recognize that the ginger would not possess the same nutrients…just wondering.
i would like very much to get started on the master cleanse …i purchaed the on line book on 05/31/2007 order FP214MLB i have not been able to download the info…i understand there is a lot of info for preparing to start the cleanse soooo any assistance availabel to help find my copy of the info wold greatly be appreciated
thank you
Hi, I think I posted a question under the wrong section. Anyway, I’ll ask again. Does the MC help to eliminate cellulite? Also, have you ever heard of people getting body wraps to lose inches, cellulite and lbs? People have reported that using herbal body wraps caused them to shed several inches(up to about 20 inches at a time) with just one wrap; inch loss, fat loss, and cellulite. Is it safe to perform herbal body wraps while on the MC or will that be a bit much? I do have herbal wraps here at home that I ‘m dying to use, but I want to make sure it’s ok first.
God bless you!!!! I appreciate you mailing it to me - it is printing as we speak. I went out of town and bought the syrup, salt, tea, lemons and frozen lemon juice - 100% - no additives and distilled water. Can I use that? You said filtered and I don’t have a filter.
Thank you again for responding even though you don’t have time to answer emails!! I’m excited. I want to make a permanent change in my lifestyle. I take Estro-Genesis - a natural hormone for hot flashes. Should I stop this on the cleanse?
I started the cleanse today and have not had a movement. I drank the salt water first thing today, Nothing has happen. What should i Do?
I have a question, so I hope this gets through. I am very, very active with sports and fitness. I am interested in the health benefits of this program and with my sports schedule, I see no way, other than taking a few weeks off, of doing 10 days. Is there a way to do just a few days? Also, I have worked hard to create muscle mass and any decrease in my workout means weeks of training to recover it. I am very concerned as I am under 10% body fat now, that I will lose muscle. What’s your thoughts?
Thanks.
Brent
i saw in one of the videos that grade b maple syrup is recommended but can i use grade a maple syrup as well?
i’ve been doing MC for 2 days the 1st day i had a movement, but it wasnt much i havent seen anything out of the ordinary like people desribe infact it’s almost completely clear, is this normal? another question is i really cant afford to buy the book on a tight budget, but i reading your news letter you state there is things you can eat without interfering would you beable to tell me what they are without me having to purchase the book? thank you in advance Valerie
I’m finishing day 4. Not 1 pound lost. Could I be doing something wrong? or can this be normal with weight loss later?
I was very sick with a debilitating headache on day one, but have felt fine since.
Hi,
I was wondering if it is semi-effective to do a 5-day cleanse? I know that Burroughs recommends a minimum of 10 days, but I’m not sure if I can last that long. Also, I’ve been exclusively having liquid bowel movements–I’ve read that perhaps I should discontinue the use of the laxative tea… do you also recommend this? Lastly, how important is it to keep the lemon content the same per beverage? I truly appreciate your help. Thank you.
hi raylen
i would like to do all the 10 day master cleanse but would it be possible not to use the maple syrup with the lemonade and use only lemons and pepper??
thanks a lot
This was my seven day on the diet, but this morning a threw the towel. I went to a lunch meeting two days ago and one of the person give a teast of the fish that he was eating and that was it. I could not stop thinking about food and this morning I made a shake and a few minutes ago I eat some rice and a barley. I feel like a failure.
Hi,
Just needed to find out is all organic maple sryup grade B?
Thanks
I was just wondering about wheatgrass shots. I love them, and they help me kick caffeine cravings. I also noticed that in the master cleanser package that they are peddling on some other sites, there is a greens supplement that contains it? So? Is it allowed, and how many per day am I allowed.
thanks,
morgan
Is it okay to use red pepper instead of cayenne pepper?
I have been on the master cleanse for 6 days and I really don’t go to the bathroom very much. I pee all day but after day 3 there wasn’t much waste going on. It was very watery. So I haven’t taken the laxitive or the salt water in two days. I am going to try again tonight. Am I doing something wrong? I am also starting to get achy and a nagging pain in my side. Other than that its going great.
Hey Daphne,
Day 1 had one solid waste disposal after using the sea salt flush. Day 2 (today) the Smooth Move tea from Day 1 kicked in. It was mostly liquid and continues to be. In fact, the liquid looks like the tea I’ve been drinking. No smell or anything. I say all that to say that all our bodies will react differently to the diet. DON’T GIVE UP ON IT JUST YET! It may take my body and your a little while longer to breakdown some of the waste in our intestines. I pee a lot too but I pee a lot anytime I start drinking more water. Hang in there–you aren’t do anything wrong. Stay positive about the experience. Take this time to research more healthier methods of eating right to your post Master Cleanse life.
I’ve tried to read all that you’ve written, but I haven’t come across anything about artificial sweetners, mainly Splenda. Can you give me your opinion on using Splenda?
Thanks,
Michele Clow
This is my 2nd day at the Master Cleanse. I am feeling hunger pangs. Are fruits or certain foods permissible any at all while doing this cleanse or will it interfere? I would really like some response to this.
Are fresh juiced greens and other juiced veggies okay while on the MC?
I would like to know the ramifications of doing the master cleanse for less than the minimum of 10 days. i would like to fit in a cleanse, but only have about 7-8 days before i leave the country. please advise.
Just started MC and I really like the lemonade. I made it according to the instructions and I was under the impression that I would be gagging it down and not wanting to drink it. I actually really like the flavor, the sweet and the sour and the spicy mix is very satisfying to me. So my question is, did I do it wrong? The salt water was gross and the tea isnt great, but the lemonade, I am really enjoying…should I be?
Thanks
I cannot download the free guide. I get a message stating that acrobat could not open mc-report.zip because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been corrupted. What should I do.
Hello this is my 3rd day on the Master cleanse, and yes i have not cheated. but my goal is only to make it thru the three days, It is my first time. I wanted to know if i can substitue limes for lemons? And is it healthy to start the Mater cleanse after my 3rd day in about less than a week?
CAN YOU DRINK DIET PEPSI OR COKE ???
AT THIS MASTER CLEANSE DIET ????
CAN YOU DRINK GREEN TEA WHILE ON THE MASTER CLEANSE?
I was on Prozac for years, but found that St. John’s does the same thing, however, I’m reluctant to go off of it and start the Master Cleanse. Anytime I’ve gone off of it, I’ve regretted it. Would it be better to open the capsules and drink the St. John’s powder or just not take it at all?
What’s a good exercise regimen to boost your metabolism during and, especially, after the master cleanse. I know this can be googled but I feel it should be something on this blog. Even I would like to know what you would suggest after having read a lot about the subject. I am a cook and I will surely be transitioning back to my regular diet (I lost my sweet tooth but I still eat butter like it’s water and I eat lots of organic meats). I surely need to get my metabolism real high before I return to my old diet. FYI (I’m cleansing to cleanse [not to lose weight])
This isn’t really a question. I thought it may be helpful to people though. Drinking 6 glasses a day is only about 650 calories. That will slow down your metabolism and make it more likely for you to gain weight back quickly after the cleanse. If you want a diet of 1200 calories drink 11 glasses a day (1183 calories.. close enough). That should stop your metabolism from slowing down. Its 100 calories for 2 tablespoons of Now Organic Grade B syrup and its 61 calories for a cup of raw lemon juice from fresh squeezing (51-54 calories for store bought juice). Thats 16 tablespoons in a cup. One glass of the master cleanse mix is 107.625 calories (to the t). I hope you post this. I’d recommend 11 glasses a day. Doing six glasses and temporarily losing weight (you will most likely gain back) is a risk. If you don’t get your metabolism back up it could really suck. Furthermore, if you drink 11 glasses than you wont have to worry so much about eating food you used to because they will affect you in the same way (they will still make you fatter but they wont make you fatter than before as opposed to the outcome you would have if your metabolism was severely compromised)… TO THE MODERATOR.. Edit this all you want. I think you ought to put the the calories per glass info and information on maintaining your present metabolism. Take care.
I did the cleanse for the first time & did it for 5 days only as I’m going out of town. I have 2 questions:
1. Can fish be re-introduced sooner than chicken as it seems to be easier to digest?
2. Can soy, rice or almond milk be re-introduced sooner than dairy products?
Thanks!
I would like to know if it’s okay to start master cleansing the same time you start your period?
This is my tenth day on the diet, and I have been following religiously, no cheating, other than I may not be drinking all I need to drink. I have trouble eliminating after drinking the salt water, and I am drinking it with a tsp.+. Also, this morning when I got on the scale, it said I went up, not down, and it’s a pretty reliable scale. What’s up with that? I almost want to quit and just gorge myself-how defeating.
Raylen,
I am a professional web/graphic designer, and I think you would do better at making a stronger impression on people if you updated the look of your website. If you want to talk about redesigning the site with me, I will be happy to help. My fees are very reasonable, and I think it would do you (and the reputation of Master Cleanse) a world of good.
Let me know what you think.
Sincerely,
Rebecca

Hello, I have got gallstones since doing the Master Cleanse. I am in a lot of pain and awaiting an operation. I am only 32, fit and healthy. I did the MC to improve my health and get rid of my toxins and now I am much worse off. Why is there not a warning of some sorts on your website? People are being misinformed and risking their health. I wonder how many other people are suffering like me due to the MC????????? Amanda
I cannot get the Mastercleanser free report to open up, has downloaded it but will not open up in any program I have could you plase help me.
I would like to buy your books in hard or soft cover. I do not want to download them. How do I do this?
Hey Ryan, I already bought the first book, wil you replace it with the new one?
Can I order the hardcopy of the Master Cleanse booklets instead of downloading them?
Two weeks ago I finished my 10 days master cleanse fast.
I feel wonderfool.
And I want ot do it again.
How long should I wait to go on for 10 day again?
Hi Raylen
I have done the cleanse twice and it is wonderful, I have omited the salt flush though so I know that I did not get the optimum result. The warm salt water is grosse, I vomited uncontrolably when I tried it so hence my not doing it. Is that ok or is there a substitute???
Debbie
i have already asked the question but havent got my answer. I said i am from india and u dont get maple syrup here what do u do???
I heard you are not suppose to take vitamins or medications on this diet….I take propecia for hairloss….is that ok?
ETERNALLY THANKFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I started the Master Cleasne but I had to drop out because of Interstitial Cystitis ( a bladdr disease) Looking at my diet sheet it stated that Maple Syrup affect by bladder. Is there some other type of syrup that I can use.
really do want to start the Master Cleanse but before I do I have a couple of questions.
I just found out that I am boarder line diabetic. Is this detox safe for me? The Dr. told me I need to loose 30 lbs and exercise or I will become full diabetic. I have changed my diet dramatically and have been walking on the tread mill, bowflex ect. I have done this for 3 weeks now. I have only lost 5 lbs. Not sure what else to do. I want to detox but I need to make sure it will not have a lasting effect on me. Do you have any suggestions?
Is there anything you can nibble on while your doing the fast? I find that at night time around 6 or 7 I get really hungry?
I am on my 6th day and feel wonderful! I have already lost 18 pounds! I am a bodybuilder and have never detoxed and wanted to get ripped and it is working. I have lost 1.5 inches in my waist and my stomach has flattened out. I am recommending the Master Cleance wholeheartedly. Only 4 more days and I can eat a hamburger!
I meant to add that I am diabetic and my blood sugar is fantastic and I have not had to take any insulin during the past 6 days.
Hello,
Do you have any suggestions for using Master Cleanser for people with Liver Cancer?

How does smoking effect this cleanse? It would be a triple whammy to stop eating, quit caffiene and smoking all at once.
I was wondering if I could have a printed copy of the guide shipped to me instead of dowloading it onto my computer.
Four questions please.
1 Can one use it for longer then 10 days.
2 Must one not eat at all whilst on the diet.
3 What exactly can I eat whilst on the diet.
4 Can one use it after the cleansing, meaning can I eat after for example the 10 days of using it and drink it in between in other words drink it rather then have coffee or coldrinks
You recently sent a message giving a link to show a short video on doing the master cleanse. My computer brought up the page, but would not show the video. Maybe there was an error with my connection to the site, or my computer could not display the video. Could you please resend that message with the link? Maybe I will have better luck the second time around.
hi!
do i have to use the herbal laxative while in the diet? or is it an option?
would i get the same results if i didnt???
Hi Raylen,
I have just purchased your Master Cleanse Secrets Guide which I have downloaded, however the bonus books did not download. I have included my email address - perhaps you can send me a link to download the bonus material, yes?
I will let you know how I go on the Master Cleanser.
Thank you.
Hi
I wanted to know if your pregnant and wanted to lose excess weight as well as other conditions that are presented during pregnancy would your cleanse be safe. I only ask because I read that the product in a small amount could be given to a newborn. I do stand corrected if I read it wrong.
i have 5 other people living in my house,,my 3 kids and a hubby and a roomate,,so i was just wondering how i can do this cleanse successfully being i can’t exactly kick my kids and everyone else out 2 eat!!! so i was just wondering what i can do bout this,,i’m sure other people have this problem as well!!! thanks so very much
My goal is to maximize my detox as well as maximize my reduction.
I am on day 6 of my MC.
I have been doing the 2 teaspoons Celtic sea salt with 32 ounce spring water SWF every morning and one cup of smooth move tea every night. I have been drinking 6 glasses with 2 tablespoons of organic lime juice with some pulp and 2 tablespoons of organic grade B maple syrup and 1/8 teaspoon of organic cayenne pepper powder. I have also been drinking an additional 96 ounces of water daily.
Am I better off drinking 6 glasses with 2 tablespoons maple or 12 glasses with one tablespoon maple (keeping the 2 tablespoons lime and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne per glass constant)?
For best health/detox/reduction results is it better to drink:
Option 1. 6 glasses with 2 tablespoons maple
Option 2. 12 glasses with 2 tablespoons maple
Option 3. 6 glasses with 1 tablespoon maple
Option 4. 12 glasses with 1 tablespoon maple
Do you have a better combination?
Thanks for your help.

Dear Raylen,
My husband and I purchased the Master Cleanse book from Whole Foods Store this weekend. We’re extremely excited about the program.
However, I have a question, my husband’s Diabetic insulin dependent, I wanted to confirm if the Cleanse is safe for Diabetics??
Regards,
Gwen~
what about prescription pain killers.if you order your book can you get the hard cover and all the other books in the mail instead of down loading them it ends up costing a lot more if we do the work of printing and putting together our selves.and why would you not have them printed and ready to send to people who trust you and what you are saying..no one want to purchase a book they can not get delivered in book form
Hi, i’m on my first day of the master cleanser. I could not find the required grade b maple syrup. however i’m currently using a 100% maple syrup which is organic. Is this okay? Also, what can I do to maximise my weight loss?
Thank you
Can I use distilled water?
I wanted to know if I can exercise regurlaly during the time I’m on the master cleanse? Thank you
No one ever answered Iris question on can you exercise while on the cleanse???
i am on hbp meds, can i do the mc or do i have to stop taking my medications?
I started my first cleanse 5 days ago, and so far so good (7 pounds lighter). I have downloaded your free information and found it, along with the information on your website, to be very helpful. I would also like to buy and download the books. When I click on the links nothing happens. I’ve tried enabling cookies at the highest level, and allowing popups.
I do have a suggestion for your site. Perhaps a specific link for reporting web problems would be helpful.
Thanks!

Hi
Hi
I have “Bad” Fibromyalgia, with chronic fatigue, irritable bowel, TMJ, depression, chronic lower back pain and more. I am taking Oxycodone, Methadone, Lyrica, and Diclofenac. The instructions with the Lyrica state not to suddenly stop taking the meds, and I have tried to stop with the narcotic pain meds before – with very bad withdrawals (I have been on the pain meds for about 8 years). How will these meds affect the ‘cleanse’? I can’t eat pepper because of the irritable bowel so will the cayenne pepper affect me the same way?
Sincerely needing help… Bud
Hi,
I am going to download your book tonight when I get off of work, thank you.
I have two big questions though, one, do you think I can start this during a work day, I work 8-5 in an office, or don’t know if I should wait to start on the weekend, however, I am really excited to start this tomorrow.
Also, two, is it okay to exercise during this cleanse? Maybe I just need to wait and see how I feel and if I have the energy to do so. I usually do a cardio work out at the gym 5-6 days per week and do Bikram Yoga 4-5 times per week.
Thank you for your time, energy and effort that you put into helping others on this fast!!

What is the wheat germ for and how often should it be taken?
I had gastric bypass a 4 years ago…will I still benefit from the Master Cleanse?
I would love to get started on it - I just haven’t had the money yet! To buy the necessary foodstuff, and your book. And then I have to travel for my job to 5 offices every month, trying to figure that out. I was out of work for 5 months - and had to take a very stressful job. AND I have been sick on/off with a cough that robs me of my sleep - for months! I have done this once before and found it great - but didn’t have your book back then. I feel cruddy, and am 40 lbs overweight - need to do it! But haven’t been able to get started!
Thanks for keeping me on you mailing list!
WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE BLOODY RED EYES and the acute RIGHT and LEFT SHOULDER PAIN!
On Day 9, my husband has had to have chiropractic care on his left shoulder…now, his right shoulder is begining of the same type pain and this morning and tonight he has bloody red eyes.
He is supposed to wear contacts but his eyes are so irritated. The right side of his face is swollen, too.
Please advise.
Can I still take birth control pills while doing the master cleanse? Will they still be effective? Thank you!
Hello Raylen,
3 days ago i finished my 10 days Master Cleanse,it is great to
find all this new info on Master Cleanse,but i think the old way is the best,
if you ready to do it mentally,what is the hardest think to do,then there are no
craving and everything go smoothly,i live in Italy,it is impossible to find here
even grade B Ms or laxative tea,so just with salted water and lemonade is fine and i did cook every day
for my husband and daughter,for me it was a challenge and i am very happy i did it!
It was very easy compare to the first time(4 days),with bad pain in all bones and headache,
but if you new an advance that you can have that,then you go through that and
by the end almost do not want to stop! I found the first ,,orange juice day,, a bit annoying,
but now i found some good tips from web-site of P.Glickman and i am taking probiotics and
thank you for your tips and info as well.
Inga
Raylen, I purchased your Master Cleanse Secrets and noticed there were SO MANY spelling and punctuation errors! For the money I paid I would expect words to be spelled correctly! I will not consider being an affiliate unless these errors are corrected.
I’d like to continue my exercise program while using your system. Will that be ok? I’m not interested in loosing weight, just clearing my system out.
I jog 8 miles every other morning and ride my bike for twenty miles on the other mornings/days.
I go to the gym in the afternoon and use the eliptical’s for 45 minutes and then 30 minutes of resistance training.
Thanks,
George
I am on my third day of the Master Cleanse. I have done this before and didn’t really have any side effects other than headaches. However this time I feel like I am developing a chest/head cold. I have a lot of mucus and do not feel well at all. Is this a normal part of the detoxing process? I am trying to decide if I should ride this out in hopes that the detoxing will make this go away quickly or if I should quit for now.
Thank you.
Well I oredered for myself and my husband, but I just didn’t get the email that the items had shipped and so I said cancel my order. It is very upsetting to think that you may just be a scammer. If you are only one person and you have this MCKIt for sale on a mass levelthen you are messing up. Since you advertise these kits then you should be able to deliver right away, that didn’t happen here. I heard no response other than to check the order to see that indeed you did cancel it. Ofcourse I am following up with my bank to make sure the credit is there.
**Edit by Raylen**
I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but there are no Master Cleanse kits for sale on this website. The only Master Cleanse product I offer is my ebook.
I was trying to purchase your The Master Cleanse and am unable to. For some reason the places where I click to go to another page do not work. I received an email from you this morning saying I could get the plan for 1/2 off, which I then clicked on the link in my email…. now that one worked.. .then I tried clicking on the one on the page and it wouldn’t work. Same thing happened when I tried to order thru the website a few weeks ago.
Thank you for your consideration
Ronda
I just finished the Master Cleanse and am a beleiver for life. I also recommend a liver and gallbladder flush at the end of the cleanse. A book by Andreas Moritz explains how to do it. I am interested in the Master Cleanse book, but wondered if it was available in softcover? It would be nice to have something more permanent that a computer printout. Thanks for your reply.
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS RONDA??? I CAN NOT PURCHASE THE PROGRAM AND ADD BOOKS AT YOU 1/2 PRICE SPECIAL TO ONGOING NEWSLETTER READERS?? AN TRYED EMAILING YOU ONLY TO GET DIRECTED HERE? ON A FIXED INCOME AND NEED TO SAVE EVERY NICKEL I CAN. PLEASE ADVISE
Hey Raylen,
I think it would be better if you could email me so i can ask you my question. Thanks for your confidentiality. I hope to hear from you soon.
keep up the great work,
Raylen,
Your link to Citibank or whoever you are processing payments with, is NOT working. I responded to your newsletter offer but the link goes nowhere and I cannot finish the deal. Please let me know how to proceed. Thanks.

Deborah
On am on my fourth day now of the master cleanse and it is going well but I have some ?s.
First, should I be doing the sea salt cleanse everyday? I am having excessive diareaha.
Second, My husband has had very minimal bowel movements although he is drinking the salt water cleanse each day. Does this mean he is clean or backed up?
Thank you for your help

Raylen – Not sure if you do respond to these or not. I’ve been on the Cleanse for 8 days now. Initially I lost 6 pounds, first 3 days, but since then have only lost another 2-3 pounds. Also my eliminations have not really included any solid material since day 3. I have followed the diet strictly, even using a little less Maple syrup, 1- 1.5 tbsp per drink. The only thing that I can question is the water. I do not have filtered water at my house or work, so I have used bottled water – Dasani, Pure Life, and Poland Springs. Do you have specific bottled water that works with the Cleanse – are these on this?
My plan was to go 20 days, but I’m hoping to eliminate more solids and lose more weight.
Thanks
I have tried doing your Master cleanse diet, but cud not do more then 2 days as I am very addicted to my 4 cups of tea and my vitamins,and calcium tablets.Not to forget I am 50 yrs old
I also wanted to know if drinking Seasalt water daily along with only fruit , juices and salad is safe for me.
How many days shud I drink sea salt??? Can I take sea salt water along with my regular food too?
Let me know its advantages and disadvantages, I find this laxative very effective.
Thank You
i went through a five-4-day cleanse, but on the fifth day, i got some pineapple fruits, i drank some taxative tea to remove. On the following day, i continue. Is this possible.
what is the effect of the digestive system in this cases.
Hi Raylen,
I am going to Florida for Easter and would love to be minus 10. I want to start the cleanse, but I am a bit scared at failing…Fear of the unkown, I guess.
Can I buy your books at Borders. How long will it take if I order them via the internet.
I have been cleansing for 3 day now and haven’t had a bowel movement. Is that normal? How long does it take for the cleansing process to start? Can you chew sugar free gum to cut the cravings?
Thank you,
Is it okay to take antidepressents while on the Master Cleanse?
Thank you.
Hi Raylen,
First of all, thank you for sharing all your knowledge about the Master Cleanse,
I’ve recently completed the Master Cleanse twice for 3 days, and have felt amazing;
the problem is that each time I begin eating properly I struggle with poor digestion again, and the resulting problems such a jaundice from a disfunctioning liver.
I’ve read that you suggest to give the body a rest for 45 days after the cleanse,
however is that just for when you complete the 10-day cleanse?
I’m desprete to get back on the cleanse and make the ten days,
would that put too much strain on my body’s metabolism, or can one fast for 3 days and then for 10 without having to wait for 45 days? If not, can I do another 3 day cleanse?
Also, none of the laxatives worked for me, even the salt, is it ok to break the fast with fresh apple juice?
Thanks again!
I live in the Republic of Panama, where it is very difficult (and very expensive) to buy the type of maple syrup recommended in the Master Cleanse.
Is it okay to instead use Organic Sugar Cane Honey? This is not bee honey, it is the honey from sugar cane.
I look forward to your guidance in this matter.
Sally Thomas
i was wondering do i nessary have to buy organic lemmons im on a very low budget can i just use regular lemons,i peeled the lemons peels of and then blended the 6 lemons then i put the 12 table spoons of lemond and mixed 12 table spoons of maple surp the one from the health food store it was expensive $20.oo a bottle i brought the liquid cyanne pepper i put 1 teaspoon and a halph gallon of water then i blen all of it in the blenderwow it taste pretty good but my question is cant i just buy regular lemmons what is the difference a lemon a lemon isnt it? one dag on lemon alone of the organic lemon is $1,25 per lemmon i really on a budget so please tell me cant i just use regulsa lemons?
I CANT TAKE THE SEA SALT I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE I ALMOST DIED IT TOOK MY PRESSURE SO HIGH I WINDED UP IN THE HOSPITAL SO IS IT OK TO JUST USED HEARBLE TEA LAXTIVE AND ANOTHER QUESTION DO I TAKE THE TEA EVERY DAY ? OR JUST THAT ONCE?
Just want to know if your book is available in bookstores. I would prefer to have a book, if not then I will just do the download.
Thanks.

Hello Raylen,
I am one faucet adapter away from beginning the master clease! I am waiting patiently, but in the mean time my question is this; I prematurely bought my organic lemons and squeezed & refrigerated them only to find out that my sink needed a special adapter. I then immediately froze the juice. Will it be okay to thaw the juice in the fridge and use it daily anyway without losing any of it’s benefits in the lemonade?
Thank you very much.
Hi Raylen,
Can take to eat fruits on Master Cleanse? Because i have problem gastric. Drink 60oz lemonade drink a day instead of the required 100oz? Will i still lose weight? I am from Malaysia. Here dont have Laxative tea instead can use salt sea? or Can take herbal tea instead salt sea? Will get side effects on Master Cleanse? Pls reply me soon. I want to know everything before start on MC. Thanks
How can I go about getting a refund on the $27 set of books?
Hi Raylen,

Pls reply me soon because i need to know everything and make sure than i can start to follow your advise and start on the Master Cleanse. I am hearing from you soon. thanks abi
Just wondering if it is ok to still take regular prescriptions during the cleanse.
Hi Raylen,

Hello, i’m trying to order your Master Cleanse Secrets guide but the links do not work, It’s not my pop up blockers or anything like that.
by the way, I’ve read some of the other comments here and a lot of the stuff you guys are asking about, Raylen explains this on his website here, for example he does have the ingreadients to buy and the what you might experience so that should obviously explain the soft black feces that one person asked about. Black feces means your stool is old and was backed up.. Other people are asking if you can take vitamins while on the cleanse, again he explained that already.
I really wish people would leave or ask valid comments so that Raylen will be easier for him to answer these questions.
I finished my first 10 day cleanse 2 weeks ago- and I never felt better! Especially the mental clarity that I felt at day 8 and beyond. I ate some ham on Easter and have been drinking alcohol. My body is not reacting well. Bloated feeling in my diaphram, constant burping and a thick mucus deep in my throat!!
????? MY QUESTION - Can I do the MC again so soon after finishing it? I feel like maybe my body was not done cleansing.
I plan to do the Master Cleanse to detoxify as well as lose weight, but mainly to lose weight. The only problem is that my mom won’t let me do it if I can’t eat anything, because she says it would be unhealthy to do so. What should I do about this? Another thing is there isn’t a health food store near me and I have no way to pay for the products online. Are there any alternatives?

I am a Massage Therapist and Fitness/Dance Instructor teaching 10 to up 12 classes per week. Is it wise (safe) to do this diet and not eat anything as suggested for this cleanse considering the above-mentioned?
Thank you,
No Lo
Hi Raylen,
I would like to buy your book, but the link is not working right now.
I am also very concerned with the sugar in the maple syrup, as I have hypoglycemia quite bad. I do not eat any sugar, white flour or processed foods as I get sick from them. I don’t even tolerate fruit. I am convinced the Master Cleanse would really help my health problems, I am just scared of the maple syrup. Have you had any feedback from people with hypoglycemia? I would really appreciate your input.
Best regards,
Kathy
does it matter if i use kosher salt instead of sea salt?
hanks for the tips. I’m on day six and still hungry all the time. Other than that, I feel fine.
I wanted to respectfully point out that a “lesson” is something you learn and “lessen” means decrease the side effects. Also, feedback is one word.
I really appreciate your support,
Rhuby
I would like to order MASTER CLEANSE SECRETS in a hard copy (book/booklet) version rather than having to download. Please let me know how I can do this. Can I just write directly to your address and mail you a check, including any shipping charges or ?? if there is not a way to order hard copy on-line. Thank you for your response. Carol
I have looked at the questions/comments which people have sent in and they are all quite interesting, but there are no ANSWERS. Being able to see your answers would be more beneficial. Thanks again. Carol
Hello Raylen,
I am 14 years old. I heard about this when Beyonce announced she did it. I’ve really been wanting to do the Master Cleanse to lose a few pounds before my Formal, but my mom says it’s dangerous. I show her the testimonials and facts, and she refuses. Can you prove to my mom that this is safe? I have tried every method of weight loss, and this is my last hope. My cousin tried it, and she also reccomended not doing it, because she said it tasted awful. Please please please help!
Thank You,
Nicole
Dear Raylen
Thank you for your advice. I have not had time to go through all the material as of yet( it took me so long to download it - -I wish i could get copies of the material - -I would be so much more able to read it if i did not have to sit in pain at the computer.
- - I started Monday and am on day 3. I’ve done the cleanse before, and know the benefits. I would like to do it for 40 days this time - -have to see how i feel. A well meaning friend called this morning about an alarming news brief informing the listeners that the cleanse is the worst possible one to do, etc.
I informed her that I was aware of the pitfalls of gaining weight back after - -been there/done that.
you have a happy and healthy day too
Lore
I didn’t last 2 days!!!! I had an axcruciating headache…..so I stopped after one day
Dear Raylen:
I’ve read about many different ways of doing a cleanse, but your way seems to be the easiest and most effective, based on the testimonials I’ve read.
I’m about 100 lbs. overweight, aged 76, and have never done a cleanse. I seem to be reluctant to do one (fear, perhaps?) but I also have a strong feeling that once I do a cleanse, I’ll probably feel better… I have chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, depression (sometimes) and, unfortunately, I don’t exercise (joint problems).
One of my fears, if you can believe this, is that I may clog the toilet with who-knows-what (parasites and clogged feces, etc.), but I also fear the process itself. I have a conventional medical doctor who doesn’t believe in cleanses, so there’s no point in checking in with him…
If I did the 3-day cleanse at first, in your opinion, what may be some of the benefits I’ll experience? I’m looking forward to your response, Raylen, for which I thank you so much!
Gloria Rubin
the recipe calls for Grade B maple syrup, but i couldn’t find it, so i bought Grade A, can i use that instead, if i use Grade A, will i not get results?
I would interested in getting your information in book form as I am without a computers now, and can not down load them at this computer.

You know:
I’m in advertising. I’ve been in advertising for 25 years. And I’ve been completely successful in all areas of the creative solutions I’ve created for my clients. And that’s because it all speaks to the soul of the viewer with integrity, honesty, humor and heart.
Your site is not awful. It’s just ridiculously hard to read and cumbersome to maneuver.
What’s more, it looks commercial and not authentic. If I were your agency, I would tell you that it most likely belies the integrity I am sure you have.
It’s not that all advertising agencies and marketing directors lack integrity. It’s that many just lack creative talent and ingenuity, and most importantly, the proper marketing instincts to make their ideas resonate with truth and effectiveness.
If you really hate your site, call me.
I might be able to make you twice as successful as you are now. How? By helping you look like you are the real, live thing.
By the way. I did the master cleanse diet for four days. I probably could have done it longer had it been easier for me to get the “secrets” It just took me too long to figure out how.
That I can also fix.
Sincerely,
Mindy Greene

Hi,
I accidentally erased my Master Cleanse Secrets download email and I am having problems opening it. Can you resend it to me please. I need to try to download it again.
Thanks,

Hi Raylen
I have been on the cleanse for 3 days and this morning I woke with a sore lower back. I thought it might be the bed I was sleeping on but it has continued to hurt me through the day.
Its more on the right bottow back side so I’m wondering if it has anything to do with the colon being cleaned out…have you heard of this before?
I wanted to know if there was some book store that sell your book or do you have to get from your site?
I have never done a cleanse before…I’m thinking about doing this master cleanse, but I do not need to lose weight. Is it ok to eat normal while doing the cleanse, so there is no weight loss? Or does this defeat the purpose?
My niece has started the cleanse and I want to have her to start reading your newsletter, but I need to enroll her…please email me the site to sign her up for the newsletter.
where do you get the maple syrup from?? i’m having the hardest time finding it, could you give me a list of stores that sell it, by the way i dont live near a trader joes or whole foods store, and those are the only two stores i know that sells it. please reply, i want to start this diet really badly!
if you dont use any salt, will the diet still work?
I am about the start the master cleanser this weekend, I just want to know if there is anything i have to do before starting the lemonade drink?
Hi,
My name is Rebecca and this is my second day on the cleanse. Although I haven’t cheated, I am still smoking. I am wondering if I will still get the benefits of the cleanse if I continue to smoke? It sounds terrible I know, but I just can’t seem to quit.
I bought your book today. I am currently reading it.
I plan on taking measurements, and lots of pictures. I have already bought a white plastic collander (for the “evidence shots”).
I hope to make this study as complete and as descriptive as possible, so it can inspire others to take the plunge.
I may just use it all in an affiliate site…
I bought a gallon of Grade B Maple Syrup, 60 lemons, sea salt and Cayenne (Red) pepper. I will buy a 5-gallon water bottle and will get it refilled as needed. I will purchase the Aquasana filter later on.
A couple of questions…
I would like to know if I can substitute chlorella for the wheat grass. My understanding is that it has a high concentration of both protein (according to nutrition information a 1tsp/3g serving of chlorella provides 2g of protein and 60 mg of chlorophyll).
If the answer is yes, what would be your recommended intake per day of the chlorella?
Thank you in advance for your prompt reply.

The video you will be posting on how to make the lemonade is not correct. I have had Stanley prepare me a glass of lemonade, it was made fresh each glass not from a half gallon premixed. Once it sits for more than 10 mins. it is dead, the enzymes have been oxidized and the cleansing benefits are lost. Stanley also did not use a tincture and recommended more cayenne for quicker results, I have seen people use 1 tsp. of cayenne per glass. This of course is too much for 99% of the population. My book “The Complete Master Cleanse” will go into more detail on this very important aspect of the cleanse.
im on my 3rd day with no cheating,my bowl movment is not working and seems to be getting constapated,how do i get by this filling,when dose all that garbage start to release from our bodys ? plse reply jeffrey
Dear Raylen,
I have done the master cleanse, 10 days. I made it through, but never had the cleansing of the colon as claimed-you know the gooey pooey. I did get caffiene free and craving free.
I am also a student of vibro-acoustics and bio-resonance, and homeopathy. The Detoxing Patch is a digital homeopathic. If you knew more about homeopathy and digital homeopathy, you might not react this way.
Slamming another product does not make yours better. There are plenty of sites telling about how the master cleanse is a sham too.
This e-mail is unbecoming to you.

Hi Janet, I just got back from a trip around the
World Wide Web and I could not believe the crazy claims
being made about a certain Detoxing product.
I’m running late for my martial arts class, but
I MUST let you know about this scam.
It’s called the Detox Patch.
Most of us Master Cleanse’ers know the benefits of
detoxing our body. It’s one of the main reasons we
use the Master Cleanse, and there’s no question about
how great it feels to eliminate all the waste from your
body.
But You Can’t Get “Master Cleanse” Results Using A Patch! I
wish it was that easy. But it’s not.
Here’s some of the things this patch claims to remove from
your body (try not laugh when you read these)
* Pesticides
* Cholesterol
* Trans fats
Even worse this patch cost over $100 for a 1 month supply.
Keeping your body pure and healthy is something we all
want, but please don’t think you can do that by sucking
the waste out with a patch.
The Master Cleanse has been around for over 50 years and
it’s helped thousands of people, even celebrities, cleanse
their body. The Master Cleanse is proven to work and you
won’t have to spend $100’s of dollars because the Master
Cleanse can be done for just a few dollars a days.
My Master Cleanse guide will show you how to detox your
body without gimmicks.

Dear Ray,
I’ve done the master cleanse five times. I payed and downloaded your information because I thought I’d find two things; the secrets to losing weight because in the past I have decreased the amount of maple syrup to half and wanted to know if that was O.K. and perhaps one way to lose extra pounds or find out if decreasing the syrup could be a problem health wise and what foods were recommended although I can live without the food… the other thing was beginning correctly which I think I’ve been successful @ with the salt drink and drinking the tea in the evenings and first thing in the morning. Is there a specific brand of salt you recommend?
I hope you can answer these questions. I will begin my fast in just a few days.
Thank You,
Evelyn Daitchman
Im very concerned. I have continued to take my birth control, however am worried it is not going to be as effective. Is it essentialy being washed right out of my body? I have been taking it about 30 mins b4 i drink anything to combat this.
Please advise!
I ordered your $27.00 downloadable book ect.
I can not find the “list of cheat foods” you say you list?
Please let me know or send them to me, as that was one of the main reasons I ordered. Thank you so much. Talk soon ~ C

I was curious if you can do the clease for less than 10 days?
Can I continue to take Citrucel while on the diet?
Hi Raylen,
I noticed my question was posted here a few times but no answers….. I have not had any ‘cleansing’ bowel movements and have been on the cleanse for 6 days now. I use the Psyllium Husks and do the Salt water drink. My husband goes to the bathroom almost immediatly after drinking the salt water but I don’t. I have lost 7 lbs and he has lost 8 lbs. I feel fantastic and full of energy, but when will I start to see the cleansing?
I have tried several times to buy the book you sell, but when I click on the Add to Cart, it doesn’t do anything!!! It is getting very annoying!! Do you have a phone number for customer service so I can call and order it?
Is it ok to do the cleanse during your monthly periods or is it better to wait?
Will I lose muscle if I do the Master Cleanse if I am not consuming any protein? I work out quite a bit (cardio and weight training). Please let me know.
Thanks.
Jodie
I would like to know where to buy the books. I can not down load.
