Beginning around the middle of June 2013 I rigorously followed the “Master Cleanse” regime, for forty days.
The Master Cleanse was developed fifty years ago by Stanley Burroughs, an alternative health practitioner and natural remedy enthusiast. During his lifetime and even up until the present day, Mr. Burroughs has been greatly maligned in the press by nutritionists and medical authorities as being a misguided charlatan. Nevertheless his “lemonade diet” has remained a popular solution for those seeking to rid their bodies of “toxins” and, in some cases, for weight loss.
During the forty day Master Cleanse fast, I lost sixty-five pounds, my glucose levels dropped substantially, and my blood pressure stayed within normal levels without the use of medication.
