I suffered from stomach pain and burning mostly, couldn’t sleep well and just hated those extra pounds I couldn’t get rid of no matter what I did. Now I stumbled upon this system that is easy and it doesn’t require expensive medication or difficult exercises.

Will one of you angry white males please explain to me what the “scam” part of the master cleanse is? The ingredients are inexpensive and generic and the process is freely available on the internet. So, who is behind the “scam?” The maple syrup companies?

I’m about to start this thing and, though I am skeptical of some of the more extreme claims, I am fairly confident it will be good for me. I have had a large number of friends undertake the cleanse and they have all had positive results.

So, if the scamming schemers are listening, let me know how you’re victimizing me, because I still don’t understand.

Hey there just found your site via austinbloggers.org. Pat is correct- The Master Cleanse and countless other “detoxification diets” are just scams with no real health benefits. Your liver and kidney are the primary organs responsible for getting any “toxins” out of your body.

Here’s just one article written by a MD:

[...] Jump to Comments Since all I want to do is eat some solid food (Day 9 of the Cleanse), I’m going to go ahead and torture myself and talk about Moonshine. The Third-and-Red-River [...]

Hi, Pat. I would encourage you to read more about the master cleanse from the websites posted above. It is actually very different from a fast. I am curious about your friends who were ill afterwards. Did they follow all steps of the cleanse? My friend and I completed the master cleanse last year, and we did not feel ravaged or eat everything in sight. In fact, the cleanse helped me to develop very healthy eating habits.

At any rate- you don’t have to want to try it, or even really support it- but before you start on a rant, you should really consider gathering some facts.

This is old-fashioned quackery. Several folks I know have done this and gotten extremely ill afterwards. Fasting for more than 24 hours can be very dangerous. If you do this for 10 days you will only lose water weight, become ravaged, and eat everything in sight until your body restabilizes. In short, the Master Cleanse is a huge crock of liquid doo-doo.
