Master Cleanse: The Ingredients

The Master Cleanse consists of drinking a mixture of lemon juice, water, cayenne pepper and maple syrup for 10 days (minimum) and salt water (sea salt) flushes on a daily basis. The lemon drink provides nutrients to the body and allows for the overall cleansing. As you can imagine, the salt water flush cleans the colon and allows for the toxins to be removed.

Getting started you will need the items below. I easily found all of them at Whole Foods in Union Square last night for approximately $38. I did not buy the lemons yet as they were crazy expensive.














Sea Salt
This is for the Salt Water Flush. Organic is best.













Maple Syrup
Um, this was $19.99. Thanks Whole Foods.
It is very Important to have Grade B.













Senna & Black Tea

Senna is used as a natural laxative. It is taken at night and will aide in the flushing.

Black Tea can be used (although may be considered cheating) as a natural caffeine should you really need to ingest it in the mornings. Organic is best.













Cayenne Pepper Tablets
I am digesting them in the pill form rather than adding to the lemon drink.

Lemons you can find in most grocery stores so I didn't bother buying at WF. All other essential ingredients would be difficult to find and too annoying to run around the city and look for so I opted to buy them all in one convenient (and very fucking crowded) location.

Good luck with the fast!

Once you get past day 4, its a breeze. The most brutal part is choking down the SWF. You may barf it up once or twice. It's just that gross.

Next cleanse, you may want to look into Blessed Herbs. In my pretty vast experience, this is the best cleanse out there.

Good luck!
