The Master Cleanse

Hey Fellow Warriors,

Just checking in to see if anyone here has participated in a Master Cleanse.

I've done it three times - none of which I actually finished. I felt great while doing it though (generally)

My girlfriend and I are getting ready to start tomorrow, so today we're going to stock up on all the "goodies".

  • Master cleanse 3 times? WTF are you doing that you are getting gunked up so darned often? I'd start worrying by that point about keeping continual detox going instead of just getting temporary cleansers. Dandelion is great for a continual blood purifier with no side effects from long term use. For intestinal, there's all sorts of factors working, but an occasional spoonful of apple cider vinegar and some ground flax seeds and oatmeal and a few large salads for fiber to sweep the place clean isn't a bad idea either.

    This next item is a bit sensitive, but you need to pay attention to it........
    The modern toilet is not designed for effective evacuation. The sitting position is not correct for support of the abdominal muscles and matter can move backward instead of forward and cause liver problems, build-ups etc. Try evacuating in a squat position the way we were naturally intended to use and you will find all your "goodies" are not necessary to evacuate anything but your wallet.

    Ya might wanna try a week or two of Milk thistle to regenerate your liver, too.

    Geesh --- I sure hope I don't see ya smiling and holding up some of those "results" like I've seen on some of those websites. LMAO.

    • They've been spread out over about 4 years, and I've never actually finished the cleanse. Now that I have others doing it at the same time as me though, I feel it's going to be easier to stay the course
  • I have never actually tried it, but I have promoted it with little success.

    If you try it then best of luck

    • Is this the stuff where you see testimonials of folks who have pulled a rope out of their keister?

  • GEE, it sounds like a SLOW version of the colonoscopy fast! With THAT, you:

    1. take phospho soda(available at a drug store). Don't be scared, this is VERY similar to the sea salt part of the master cleanse part. PERSONALLY though, I would give it 3.5 hours to finish effects. Do it on the weekend, or late friday.

    2. go on a fast drinking only water and clear broth.

    Within 3 days, you will certainly be CLEAN. Of course, you shouldn't do this more often than say every 2 weeks.

    • Jeesh, relax; you don't have to be so anal retentive. This is a very popular movement that began way back in the 1940's and is rapidly spreading all over the world through many channels. And the real beauty of this program now is you no longer have to go alone. Support groups near you may provide professional advice and counseling to make this a smooth process during the most difficult times.

      But if group poops aren't for you, I sell a book for the squeemish and for those who really want to go it alone, called "Lose Weight, Have More Energy and Be Happier in 10 Days". Or you can order it online through Amazon.com. It comes with a money-back satisfaction guarantee that you will pass with flying colors within 10 days.

      I have personally seen results (through plunging and fixing clogged plumbing for my new customers), so I know it really does work. And, nearly everyone who buys this book in my health food store becomes a regular customer. If you want to look it up for more in-depth study, there is an organization totally devoted to the matter, The Master Cleanse - http://themastercleanse.org.

      Hope this helps.

  • if you're spending that much time cleaning your colon you need to find another hobby

    • Nah, its not just a colon thing dude. Its a total cleansing of the entire system. Like I said before; a long term Master Cleanse is like a clean install on a Windows computer in that everything works like new afterwards. Besides the phenomenal health benefits, its really good for your head spiritually and it sure free's up a lot of time in your day that used to be spent preparing meals and stuffing your face.

  • any proof other than sales literature?
  • if you google colon cleanse you will find thousands of things that claim to do it, varying in method and price.
    This is just one of those things.
  • So, the darn thing muddles your brain so much you cant do basic math?

    • No, it just messes with the space-time continuum around your body, altering your preception of time. That's why you look and feel younger when cleansing too (because you actually are).

      Seriously
  • there is profit in the colon cleaning niche because people are suckers.
  • I did the Master Cleanse for 14 days with the daily salt water flush. Surprising how good I felt during the latter half of it.I was turned off from eating meat for quite some time. However, 2 months later, hamburgers never tasted so good

    I'd definitely do it again, but I live in Japan now and it would cost quite a bit to do it here.
  • there's a lot of crap in this thread, not just cleansing either

    • Oh, it's you again - Mr Negative Bash the Alternative Health Industry Dude.

      Maybe you need to do a colon cleanse.
    • Yeah but we can't exactly force you to stay out of it either.

      Don't worry about it, JoeJ - Michael gets real irritated when he doesn't get watered often enough.
  • What interests me about these type of discussions is that you'll always get people who have very strong opinions on something they've never even tried. I pay little attention to strong opinions backed up with no experience.

    When I want to learn some bad *ss Karate, I don't ask the cripple on the chess team.

    I've done a variety of cleanses in my life. I have not done the Master Cleanse though. The Ejuva one was pretty sweet. It was a 30 day thing. Sorta spendy, about $300.

    I found juice fasting and a psyllium husk powder to be the most effective for me.

    The only way to truly know is to experience.

    And let me tell you something... "That sh*t don't lie." (literally)
