The Master CleanseReviewed by Karaoglanian G. Gary, 2009-12-26
This is one of the books maybe only a few that you can get your hands on read it and follow the instructions that works. I have used the information in this book and followed it to the max and it did wonders for me. Very informative book I recommended to my family and friends and they also gain outstanding results and used it to maximum success.
Great guide for cleansing and follow-up diet & lifestyleReviewed by Susan Schenck, 2009-11-07
If you have not heard of the Master Cleanse, it is a very popular
way of fasting/cleansing created in 1941 by the author's mentor,
Stanley Burroughs. The author has spent a total of 1000 days on the
cleanse since 1979 and has successfully guided others on it. The
healing benefits are remarkable and include better sleep, mental
clarity, weight loss, freedom from addictions, hair no longer
falling out, more energy, and much more.
The cleanse consists of four items. Lemon juice is used because
lemons contain many minerals, as well as acids that help break down
calcified substances in the body such as kidney stones and
gallstones. Lemons are also alkalizing. Maple syrup is recommended
above all other sweeteners because it is rich in minerals and
vitamins. (Agave was, if used more than 10 days, found to cause
demineralization!) Cayenne pepper is added because it purifies and
thins the blood. (The book also states that when cayenne is placed
under the tongue in tincture or powder form, it can even stop a
heart attack!) Of course, water is also used in the drink, and the
author discusses the various forms of water (distilled, reverse
osmosis, etc.)
In this complete guide to the Master Cleanse, we are told what to
expect during the cleanse and reminded that a healing crisis is
good--it means your body is doing its cleansing thing. The author
assures women who are pregnant or nursing that it is safe for them
to also participate in a 7 to 10 day cleanse. Children and the
elderly too! Even people who have had various organs removed.
We are also told how to end the cleanse, and how to eat to maintain
the benefits. (Eat raw as much as possible, and alkaline; avoid
processed foods, go organic, etc.) There is a list of 21 things to
do to enhance your results, as well as 17 common mistakes to avoid
(ex: you should drink the juice within 10 minutes to get most of
the nutrients). The author also gives health tips for your
lifestyle after cleansing, such as starting out every morning with
some fresh squeezed lemon juice, and experimenting with mono diets,
juice diets, water fasting, parasite cleanses and liver/gallbladder
flushes. There is a discussion of the advantages of vegetarianism,
the importance of staying alkaline, and more in-depth talk about
water.
The last part of the book discusses emotions and emotional eating.
"There is not enough food on the planet to make your feelings and
emotions go away," he tells us. "Eventually, the gnawing away of
some past experience or pain that just won't dissipate may suddenly
break through into your conscious awareness and motivate you to
step up and make a change." We are also given tips and info on the
importance of filtering the bath or shower water, as well as having
nontoxic skin care products and even clothing.
This is a great, easy-to-read little book, a complete guide for
cleansing inside and out, and staying clean. Even though I have
read hundreds of books on health and nutrition, I found many new
little useful tidbits such as suppressing the appetite with
essential oils of lemon, ginger, peppermint and spearmint and how
to make a concentrate for when you are traveling.
Excellent CleanseReviewed by Nola Van, 2009-10-01
This might not be the healthiest way to drop weight but can be one
of the fastest. I believe its an excellent cleanse but please
consult with your physician before trying it.
I would recommend it.
Worth Its Weight in Lemons, Maple Syrup, Cayenne and WaterReviewed by J. Owen, 2009-08-16
The Complete Master Cleanse offers down-to-earth guidance,
background information, health tips and much more. For a good
price, this book has it all in one place for the reader to use, as
needed. Yes, you could locate all this information on the internet,
or in a variety of health and wellness books. If you research The
Master Cleanse on the internet, you'll locate a variety of sources
all saying different things, in a myriad of manners, some great,
some okay and some repugnant. However, if you have the book, it's
all in one place and delivered in a non-assuming manner. I didn't
feel that the author was grandstanding or talking from a pedestal;
what a relief that was. I didn't have the feeling this was a "cure
all" approach, just a way to be healthier, in a reasonable
way.
The Complete Master Cleanse will save you time, and keep you
motivated to understand how to be healthy and the reasonable steps
required. Mr. Woloshyn gives acknowledgment to his teacher, and the
creator of the Lemonade Diet, Stanley Burroughs. You may also want
to read about Mr. Burroughs' very interesting life, some of which
resulted from his life-long pursue of helping people and promoting
his diet as a means to cleanse ones system and regain energy and
health. Mr. Burroughs was also an advocate of colored light
therapy, deep massage, reflexology and other Nature Cure methods,
which Tom Woloshyn includes in his book.
I appreciated the clean, organized manner of writing, and editing.
I found the broad-based approach to natural health information,
physical, mental and spiritual well-being, reasonable not
soap-boxy. I found this great little book worthwhile and ... no
time-chewing here.
The Complete Master CleanseReviewed by Jackel, 2009-08-04
I personally found this to be an excellent book. It's well written and easy to understand. Recommend it highly for anyone interested in taking control of their health. Also recommend his other book - "Beyond The Master Cleanse".
