Today, toxicity has become a major issue not just in our environment but also within our bodies. Over the past century, our society has progress so much due to various developments and innovations. This has propelled the change from an agricultural based economy to that of an industrial driven economy.

Generally, progress has taken us very far in terms of our standard of living. Having said that, the industrial revolution has also altered the natural environment with pollution. With the increasing pollution levels, this has also affected our food chain. Scientific research like the  Human Toxome Project has shown that most of us have toxic chemicals in our bodies due to environmental pollution.

Apart from pollutions which we face, our increased standard of living due to the prosperity of our progresses has also changed our eating habits. We no longer eat to fulfill our basic need for survival but rather we eat for cultural or peer pressure. This has lead to our population suffering from what the World Health Organization defined as “Globesity”.  This change in diet has also affected the way our bodies cope with toxics within our body system.

No longer are our bodies able to cope with the unnatural increased in toxics. The end result of toxicity is increased incidences of Cancer and other diseases.  It goes to follow that if we want to prevent cancer or any other related diseases due to increased toxic in our bodies, we must take steps to “detox” ourselves. The most well known of all cleanse in the health market today is the Master Cleanse program. 

This program as known as the Master Cleanse has been around for over 50 years and has proven extremely effective in removing toxic from inside our bodies. The Master Cleanse is actually a fast and not a diet. Weight loss is not the purpose but the consequences that it was designed for by its founder Stanley Burroughs.

By going on the Master Cleanse fasting program, we will be able to give our digestive system a rest and at the same time, purged all the toxic from inside our bodies. The Cleansing program essentially comprises of us taking a mixture of lemon juice, cayenne powder and maple syrup for a period of 10 days. However most people find this program difficult to complete because of the hunger pangs associated with it. This is because the Master Cleanse program is an all liquid diet and most books which promote this program fail to adequately prepare the person for the tough challenges associated with it.

The most comprehensive book which I had come across which help prepare a person going on the Master Cleanse program is the Master Cleanse Insider by Katie Jones.

This book detailed out the steps which one has to take not just in terms of physical preparations but also in terms of mental preparation.

It also explains the possible side effects and how to overcome them. In short the book lay out everything that is to be expected for anyone thinking of doing the Master Cleanse Program.  If you are seriously thinking of completing the Master Cleanse program successfully, I highly recommend that you read this book before embarking on this program.
