If you’ve ever heard of the master cleanse, you may not realize it is actually based on a book called The Master Cleanser by Stanley Burroughs. Dr. Burroughs had some interesting theories on toxicity in our bodies and one of the ways he came up with to detox our systems is his Master cleanse.
This is a special drink that you mix up, consisting of fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper and maple syrup. You drink this for 10 days at a minimum and treat it like a fast. In other words, you don’t eat anything else. Some people follow the cleanse for much longer than 10 days. Many stick to it for as long as 30-40 days. You can also do the Cleanse once or twice year on a regular basis. It will help keep your colon clean and keep your body detoxed.
