What are the 3 Weight Loss Myths of the Master Cleanse Recipe?

There are myths surrounding the master cleanse and the master cleanse recipe.  In this article, I will demystify 3 of the little know myths, that you should know if you want to loss weight with the master cleanse lemonade diet.

Myth 1: The Master Cleanse is a Weight Loss and Detox Formula
The original master cleanse lemonade diet is an excellent detox, but never a superior weight loss diet. Don't get dishearten because with a few tweaks to the formulation, you can turn it into an effective weight loss diet. I'll give you more information about using master cleanse foe weight loss and detox later.

Granted that a lot of people losing weight while on the cleanse, but not everyone managed to keep those extra pounds off for good. Nonetheless, knowing that it's possible to loss weight and detox at the same time motivates a lot of people to try out the original master cleanse formula.

Myth 2: The Longer You are in the Cleanse, the More Weight You can Loss.
Theoretically speaking, what you have just read makes sense. I've known of folks going on Master Cleanse for up to 60 days.  For those wanting to use master cleanse for weight loss, this is an absolute No-No.

Why?
Because once out of the lemon cleanse diet, you may gain back all that you have lose and more.

If you want to use the master cleanse recipe for weight loss, you must understand a little secret about your metabolism.  It wasn't mentioned in Stanley Burroughs master cleanse diet.

When on master cleanse, probably you already know that your calories intake is around 600.  That's way below your daily calories intake on a normal day.  On the average, women require about 2000 calories per day while men need about 2700 calories. This is provided that there's no vigorous workout.

While it's perfectly alright to cut down on calories, doing so on a prolong basis slows down your metabolism rate.

The next moment, when you are back on your normal diet, your calories intake become too much for your metabolism handle.

So what happen next?

All those calories that your metabolism can't handle, get converted into fats.

If you are new to the master cleanse fast, or if you intend to use it for weight loss, don't go beyond 10 days.  That's my recommendation.

Myth 3: You Don't Need Protein
If you study the master cleanse recipe, you will know that it's a protein free formula.

While there are animals that can sustain their protein requirement for an extended period with it, we are not one of them.  I'll show you where to go, to get  the source of protein you need later.  First, I want you to know that certain amino acids found in the proteins are essential for our overall well being.

According to World Health Organisation (WHO), technical report, Protein and Amino Acid Requirements in Human Nutrition, your body can't do without the following list of amino acids:

• Lysine
• Leucine
• Isoleucine and valine
• Threonine
• Aromatic amino acids
• Tryptophan
• Sulfur amino acids
• Histidine

You may find out more about protein and amino acid requirements in human nutrition at: http://whqlibdoc.who.int/trs/WHO_TRS_935_eng.pdf>.

The good news is, you can truly use the master cleanse lemonade diet for weight loss and detox at the same time.

All you need to do is to add appropriate protein into your diet and keep to the 10 days regime.  That way, you can use the master cleanse recipe as a safe weight loss and detox diet.
