Detox Drink: The Master Cleanse Formula

In CategoryNews
ByOrganico

If you are planning a very restrictive cleanse, eating very little, you might find it helpful to try this drink. If you are feeling tired, and perhaps at the time you would usually have a cup of coffee or tea, this can be a healthy pick-me-up. It is taken from a detox called The Master Cleanse, but in this case we are suggesting it as an accompaniment to a gentle cleanse rather than as the central part of the cleanse. It might be best to plan to restrict how much of this drink you have each day (avoid it all together if you suffer from candida symptoms). Also, make sure that you are drinking plenty of water. Do follow the link at the end to see what Dr Haas suggests during a Master Cleanse diet.

If you like the idea, and can stick to it, it will certainly bring results. For the ‘better butter’ mixture we would recommend the new ‘fresh’ olive oil we have recently started stocking mixed with an organic butter and some flax oil. Elson Haas also recommends the Master Cleanse drink (I am about to post the recipe for that) and it can be a good pick-me-up and an aid to the overall detox.
