As a native Vermont gal who grew up next to my grandfathers sugar house (we called it a “Sap House’ back then) I know my maple syrup! (Just ask my husband who had no idea the many ways to enjoy MAPLE!!!!)
I didn’t taste the fake stuff (Aunt Jemima, etc.) until I was around 8 years old and it was FAKE…blueberry or strawberry choice???? That was at a Pancake House in Michigan.
….and by me stating that I am a native Vermonter, I mean I was born and raised in Vermont, a state where were once more cows than people! Few people these days can say that…. and even my mother who grew up in Rhode Island and has been in Vermont more than 63 years can never claim the “Native 802”. Vermonters are tough with being ‘Native’.
Yes, I know my syrups …. From Fancy to Grade A- to Amber- to Grade B… which fortunate for me is my favorite ‘grade’ and the suggested syrup in the Master Cleanse Recipe.
Memory Lane….
As a young girl I used to help my father and grandfather collect sap from the tapped trees (before ‘tubing’ we had to collect sap from the buckets hanging on the tree….with me it was by tractor, but my father remembers it with his horses pulling the ‘sled that held the sap) and when the syrup was boiled to perfection I’d take a shot glass off the shelf and help myself to a ‘shot’ of hot maple syrup. Imagine, a tank of hot syrup and putting my ‘glass under the tap’ and voila….hot maple syrup! I can still smell the boiling sap to this day!
Like many people I have enjoyed a variety of ways to use syrup. I put maple syrup on ice cream, in coffee or tea, in oatmeal, on pancakes and even in scotch! Yes, my husband is still in disbelief (and agrees it tastes pretty good) but now he has to share his scotch!
So….beginning a cleanse with anything that includes MAPLE SYRUP is not a bad thing or a difficult thing to do – I love my MAPLE and I crave this nutritional cleanse called the MASTER CLEANSE 1-2x per year!
Master Cleanse Benefits
The first time I was introduced to this ‘concept’ was when I was heavily into whole & raw foods. A friend I met through Hippocrates Health Institute gave me the original book on the Master Cleanse, written by Stanley Burroughs. Thank you John…. from here my interest in cleansing grew… but I always come back to THIS CLEANSE over the past 20 years.
OH MY, there are so many cleanses on the market and I have tried several – not too many- but enough to always come back to this one. Many, or most are expensive, deliver weak results, and several I have tried are ones where you choke down HUGE pills and plug your nose for 7-20 days drinking their potion.
Once or twice a year I enjoy this cleanse to support and rejuvenate MY BODY and by doing so my body comes back into balance and is alkalized. Did you know that disease can not live in an alkalized body?
(I also have a few GO TO products that help)…message me. Surely there is one for you!
SO… why am I (and why do many?) resort to the Master Cleanse? Over and Over again? not a biz/ not an MLM….just a good ol’ fashion CLEANSE!
I googled this as I really don’t care WHY but perhaps others will….. so this is cool info and easy to follow…..
Why should you do the lemonade diet?
Here is why I do the ‘cleanse periodically’ and many of my friends do too.
The master cleanse diet is essentially a mix between a juice fast and a water fast. So the master cleanse benefits are very similar to going through a regular fast. On a juice fast, your body gets more nutrients. On this type of fast, your body really gets a chance to rest as it is not digesting anything (but still does get cleansing nutrients from the lemonade recipe). It rests and cleanses only.
Many people experience these positive effects as a result of going through the lemonade diet: (and FYI some products from Tavala have similar benefits…)
Normalize appetite
Energy levels will increase
Cleanse and detox entire body
Pounds of built up waste will be expelled
Reduces inflammation, easing painful joints and muscles
Normalizes metabolism
Restores body to a normal healthy state
In this writings, Stanley Burroughs states the purpose and master cleanse benefits are:
Eliminates toxins and congestion that have been accumulated within the body
Purifies glands and cells in the body
Builds a healthy blood stream
Promotes youth and elasticity
Relives irritation in muscles, nerves and joints
Cleanses the entire digestive system and kidneys
Eliminates hardened waste in joints
The lemonade recipe has special properties that creates a cleansing and loosening action within the body.
The potassium strengthens the heart, and stimulates the kidneys and adrenal glands. Oxygen and carbon build life and act as a stimulant. Hydrogen activates the nervous system. Magnesium alkalizes blood, the sodium encourages cell building, silicon aids the thyroid, phosphorus heals bones, and stimulates the brain for clear thinking. Iron, copper and calcium, carbon and hydrogen helps in building and elimination.
The reason why we need to cleanse
Our bodies are sick and polluted, similar to a car that isn’t tuned and hasn’t had an oil change. Even if you eat a good diet now, have you always? If not, its very likely that many of those pollutants are still built up within your body.
Many of us live in and around polluted environments. Houses and furniture off gas, factory towers spew chemicals into the air….I don’t have to list it all here. You know how bad our air and food can be. This all builds up inside of us and over time, reeks havoc on our bodies.
Stanley Burroughs believed, as well as many other naturopath physicians, that a toxic body that is not eliminating properly is the root of all illness. The only way to heal this and turn your health around is to cleanse it. There are many ways to cleanse, from juice fasting, to raw food detoxes to water fasting. The Master Cleanse is one great option that have worked successfully for many people.
There’s no magic to the master cleanse. It simply flushes out internal waste that puts a burden on your organs in your body. Once you cleanse, your body can efficiently work in the way it was made to, without being sluggish and toxified by pollution and gunk.
When your body becomes so polluted, it will slowly begin to poison itself from the inside out.
That’s why you do the master cleanse. It rids your body of internal waste that cakes up on the intestinal walls of the colon. The master cleanse benefits will make your body eliminate pounds of waste, in a weeks time!
The reason I do the Master Cleanse is all of the above but also ‘new beginnings’…. more energy and less ‘bloat’.
Me speaking here… Just so you know….
END of the INFO I googled. I suggest Googling into, buying the original Stanley Burroughs book that was generously shared with me to change my life many decades ago…or others….
LEARN TO MAKE THE MIX.
Mix these ingredients together: 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed “organic if possible” lemon (this is about 1/2 a lemon) 2 tablespoons organic maple syrup, Grade B (the darker the better, do NOT get the fake stuff.) 1/10 teaspoon cayenne pepper, gradually increase through the cleanse. Ten to Fourteen ounces pure water.
Mix, and drink 6-10 lemonade drinks per day. Some recipes stay medium hot water, but typically I only have a warm or heated beverage in the morning. (unless I do the cleanse in the winter!)
Many suggest drinking a salt water ‘flush’ in the morning and an herbal laxative tea at night, but I won’t get into that now as it is subjective. This will help flush the system and improve how you feel.
COME OFF OF THE FAST SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY.
Today is only Day 1 but when I have finished my 10 days I’ll ease my system back into eating normal foods….most likely plant based, which is my preference. Many people suggest starting with diluted orange juice in small amounts the first day. Day 2 I’ll move to more orange juice a little less diluted and vegetable broth in the evening. By days 2 or 3 I’ll then add in vegetables and organic fruits.
Difficult? Not for me. I love feeling hydrated, not having to think about food preparation. I think the most difficult thing will be eliminating my evening cocktail but I’ll hold the vision of a healthier, cleansed body with less fat and bloat. Typically I lose many inches and some fat weight too.
I encourage you to explore the Master Cleanse and if you have any questions feel free to ask. It’s a great way to JUMP START your body and begin to lose unwanted pounds. From here we then suggest the Tavala Transformation Pack.

continuing to take the TRIM keeps your energy high and your metabolism on GO-MODE….. and nutritionally it does your body good.
Do you have to DIET or change your eating to lose weight? Although I’d love to suggest a healthy ‘whole food diet’ of unprocessed food and suggest exercise, the truth is many people do NOTHING different and they still lose weight. I have had friends lose 40-60 pounds and whisper in confession that they haven’t exercised or changed their diet intentionally… but they still lost weight. Many find as they lose weight without having to be disciplined or eat like a ‘rabbit’ and that they begin to desire and want to eat healthier meals. Most people save money while on TRIM as they won’t have the cravings or eat as much food. Just skipping an afternoon Starbuck’s can easily save you more money than an entire month supply of TRIM.

I can’t imagine being without them, especially as I prepare for actual childbirth which could happen any day now. Luckily my mother in law keeps us well supplied. (Heck they even work for my husband when he tweaks his back or has shoulder tension, as well as our 3 year old daughter when she hurts herself.)
disclaimer: If you or anyone know are looking to use the Quantum Relief Strips and are pregnant make sure you speak with your doctor or obstetrician. This is a customers personal testimonial and though we know many other women who have enjoyed them during their pregnancy and labor, always check with your professional who you are working with!
