A "new" diet called the Master Cleanse Diet says that its weight loss results are 'outstanding.' The Master Cleanse Diet (also known as the Lemonade Diet) is making big waves from health gurus to famous celebrities (most notably Beyonce Knowles) - but is the Master Cleanse Diet all its cracked up to be? First of all - the Master Cleanse Diet is not new. It was developed in the 1970's and has recently experienced a new surge in popularity due to the results many celebrities have openly talked about. The diet is based on a mixture of lemon juice, cayenne pepper and maple syrup. While this may sound like an odd combination (who has maple syrup on a diet?), the results have been surprising. Master Cleanser enthusiasts state that this particular mixture is the key to cleansing the blood, kidneys, liver, colon and intestines, as well as removing the long-term build-up of toxins in the body. In addition to the cleansing, many users report losing vast amounts of weight - some as much as 20 lbs in less than a week! While the main premise of the Master Cleanse Diet is that it is supposed to level out the body while intensely detoxifying the system over a period of ten to 40 days, the weight loss is a pleasant additional benefit for many. Many have also claimed that they do not regain their weight after completing the cleanse, just a little water weight. This is believed to be due to the craving for healthier foods such as fruits and vegetables in an effort to maintain the "clean" feeling and high energy level they experienced as part of the cleanse.

Welcome to Healthy Living!
Most of us want to live a healthier life, but it is sometimes a daunting task trying to sift through the often-conflicting information we are given, in an effort to find what will work for us. We have all heard the ongoing debate about whether low-carb diets are healthy or bad for us and the varied opinions about which carbs we should be eating. There is the accepted opinion that coffee/caffeine has a harmful effect on your life and then the newer opinion that it is actually beneficial. The same is true for alcohol - red wine to be specific - does it kill brain cells or does is that negated due to the positive, healthy effects it seems to have on the heart? These debates are only the tip of the iceberg . . .
While the previous issues address what we should and shouldn't be eating, there is also the question of what to do if we have developed some ill effects (not feeling well, no energy, weight gain, disease) and want to reverse them. There are so many possible solutions. Do we fast - and if so what kind of fast (juice, water, fruit)? Do we need to detox? If so - how? Herbal cleanses, colonics, saunas, body wraps, sea water baths, Epsom salt baths? What herbs will help heal our bodies and in what quantities? And what about the alternative therapies: massage, Reiki, bio-feedback, hypnotherapy, meditation, light therapy, aromatherapy (to name only a few!)? Which of these would help us in our particular situation?
How to make sense of all this information? We would like to have this site be a place to discuss which things have worked for us (or haven't) and hopefully by sharing our experiences we will be able to help each other wade through all the possibilities and find our own paths to a Healthy Life!
