I had someone ask me what they would do about the cayenne pepper as they are allergic to all peppers… is there something they can do it place of the peppers? Would they need to take some form of vitamin B and C when not taking the pepper? Please advise. Thanks!

Also, a friend of my husbands is diabetic, can he do this cleanse…
We, my family and I, just finished the 10 days, and everyone wants to know answers. We did not have any issues while on the cleanse, nor going off it… feeling great! Thanks!

I live in the Dominican Republic and want to start the Cleanse soon. Strangely enough I can’t seem to find Lemons here only Lime. Would use Lime instead affect the Cleanse? Also finding the recommended water filter here is impossible and I wouldn’t drink the water here and I know bottle water is not recommended. Can I boil the tap water for the Lemonade?

I have read the comment above about substituting Agave for Maple Syrup. I have Type 2 Diabetes (diet and exercise ) and high cholestrol in which I take 10 mg of Lipitor for. I am also Bipolar and take several medications for that as well . I also have hypothyroid disease and take 75 mcg of Levothyricine. I am also constipated from taking all of these meds so I take Senna-S as a laxative and stool softener (or else I wont pass a stool).

I would like to try the Master Cleanse, but I am wondering if one can take medication daily while on it? And will the Agave nectar be better for a Diabetic? Or could I substitute even another sweetener for Maple Syrup? Or is it safe for a Diabetic at all? Especially with other illnesses.

Hi my I started the lemonade diet on March 16, 2010 just to feel my way. I was going to do the quick trim but the guy at the GNC store suggested for me to use Vibrant health Organic Lemonade diet. It’s ready made with every thing in it. It’s an organic powder. I went looking around for the fresh ingredients but I could not find it. So I will use the organic lemonade diet powder. I have bad sinus headaches. Since being on this diet I have been having them frequently. Is that suppose to happen. I have been sleeping all day for the past 3 days. I am going to restart the diet because yesterday was the first time I read your site with the information and I brought you book master cleanse. All the information in it is very helpful. I am waiting for my new shipment to come tomorrow. I went online to the vitamin shoppe to by everything I need. Do I have to take all 3 laxative. sea salt, laxative tea and psyllium husk> The laxative cramps my stomach up really bad. Take the sea salt hasn’t been bad at all. I haven’t taken the psyllium husk as of yet because I just read your book and I purchase all the ingredents I need for the cleansing. These last for days was a test for me since I started before getting your book. So my total days that I will be on the master cleanse will be 14 days. Can you please advise on the sinus headaches that I have been having. I did eat collard greens so that I can take my sinus pills. I know that defeat the purpose because I am cleaning out my body. The pain was to much for me. What should I do?

I’m starting the diet tomorrow. Maple syrup’s not that challenging for me, but Cayenne Pepper, I practically only know that from a game I used to play as a kid. I live in Cairo, Egypt.

One more thing: What’s salt water flush in the first place? Read on a lot of websites, but can’t find what that is.

Thanks,
Mary
