Cayenne pepper derived from the capsicum plant is an extremely beneficial component of the lemonade cleanse. A natural cardiovascular stimulant, cayenne pepper enhances blood circulation thus greatly aiding in blood detoxification while on the cayenne pepper diet.

A popular ayurvedic medicinal herb for thousands of years, cayenne pepper has been prized for having super natural healing powers. Ancient folklore credits cayenne with healing everything from allergies, abscesses, kidney problems, psoriasis, and even reversing the onset of heart attack symptoms.

Cayenne pepper can be used in several different condensed forms, including cayenne pepper pills, cayenne capsules, cayenne liquid extract, and cayenne pepper powder.

    

These condensed versions of cayenne are great for use in the cayenne pepper cleanse. Some dieters are not fond of the taste of cayenne pepper or cannot tolerate the heat associated with the taste of cayenne, so they opt for consuming the cayenne pepper pill while doing the cayenne pepper cleanse.

She announced on the Oprah Winfrey show that she had shed 20 pounds with the aid of the Lemonade Diet.

The Beyonce diet or Master Cleanse is a 7-10 day lemonade detox diet that includes Cayenne Pepper, Grade B Maple Syrup, & Lemons mixed with 8 to 10 glasses of water a day. It is also very important to use an uniodized sea salt water flush and herbal laxative tea in conjunction with the lemonade mixture daily, as this will help with eliminating toxins from your body.

Preparing for the Beyonce Diet

You will need the following items to complete the full 7 to 10 days on the lemonade diet:

• 64 oz Grade B Maple Syrup
• 1 oz of Cayenne Pepper
• 28-40 Lemons
• 1 lb of UNIODIZED Sea Salt
• Herbal Laxative Tea
• 32 oz Sports Bottle
• 1 Tablespoon Measure
• 1/8 Teaspoon Measure
• Cutting Board
• Sharp knife

Diabetics can substitute Grade B Maple Syrup for Agave or Molasses. Also, Cayenne pepper pills can be used instead of powder for the lemonade diet.

The short answer is, “Yes, it is ok.” It is the same substance in a different form. Your body will digest the cayenne spice the same way, whether it is in powder or pill form. You are receiving the same amount of nutrients that you would be if you were using the powdered cayenne in your Lemonade Diet.

As for how many cayenne pepper pills or cayenne capsules you should use when doing the Master Cleanse Cayenne Pepper Diet, below is an estimated conversion.

Understand, milligrams -mg listed on your cayenne pill bottle- describe a unit of weight, whereas teaspoons -or tsp- represent a unit of capacity / volume, so the density of the substance is important when converting a substance from milligram to teaspoon.

For instance, unrefined sugar = approx 4.2 grams (4200 mg) per teaspoon, and water = approx 5 grams (5000 mg) per teaspoon.

However, cayenne powder is much lighter than either of these substances. 1 average tsp of cayenne powder is the equivalent of 2000 milligrams.

The Lemonade Diet recipe calls for 1/10 tsp cayenne per serving, so 1/10 x 2000 mg = approx 200mg a serving.

This equals about half of a 500mg cayenne capsules per glass or one 500 mg cayenne pepper capsule every other glass.

In conclusion, 4 Cayenne Pills a Day are recommended for the Lemonade Diet.

You can take more or less depending upon your preference… up to 8 – 500mg cayenne pills a day can be used.

Agave and Molasses are low on the glycemic index. That means the glucose and carbohydrates in these syrups are metabolized slowly, demanding less insulin production and stabilizing blood sugar.

A sweet syrup derived from Mexico’s Blue Agave plant, Agave nectar is an all-natural, low-glycemic sweetner that is not only tasty, but healthy for you. Unlike many other syrups and artificial sweeteners, agave syrup ranks very low on the glycemic index and is not known to spike blood sugar levels.

Molasses is a byproduct of sugar cane or sugar beats. You are probably familiar with molasses, as it is a common syrup used in baking recipes and beverages such as rum. In the days before white refined table sugar became a predominant household sweetener, molasses syrup was a primary sweetener found in most kitchens across the world.

(Only organic, Blackstrap Molasses is suggested to be used in conjunction with the master cleanse.)

That may be up for debate, but celebrity duo Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore are giving it a go. A very youthful and attractive Demi Moore, now 47, announced on July 11 via Twitter that her and her husband were doing the Lemonade Diet together.

Demi commented that going on the Master Cleanse diet was not about losing weight or altering appearance, but rather… ‘this is about health!!!’.

“2nd day of master cleanse and off to hike with hubby and the dogs. 2nd day better than the 1st!”, Demi disclosed.

Apparently, dieting did not prevent the actress from continuing her daily activities. As many Master Cleanse dieters agree, the lemonade cleanse provides them with more energy and vitality to carry out the tasks of the day.

You cannot eat solid foods while on the lemonade diet.

The lemonade diet is a detox diet that is used to give the digestive system a break from processing solid foods. In order to completely flush out the digestive tract, a liquid diet is required.

Can I Eat Fruit While on the Master Cleanse Diet?

Lemons are the only fruit that are allowed to be consumed while on the Lemonade Diet. They should not be eaten in solid form. Pulp and flesh from the fruit would be ingested this way (requiring the digestive system to metabolize these solid foods) and would impede the detoxification process.

Lemons, cayenne pepper, organic grade b maple syrup, as well as laxative tea and a salt water flush daily is all that is recommended while doing the Lemonade Diet. Grade B Maple Syrup can be substituted with Molasses and/or Agave Nectar in certain cases; for instance, for diabetics who would like to do the master cleanse – as Molasses & Agave Nectar are low on the glycemic index.

The lemonade diet allows the dieter to drink peppermint tea while on the cleanse. Mint tea is known for it’s purification properties and helps support the detoxification process during cleansing. No other supplements should be consumed.

It’s hard to dissect many celebrity trends, especially in the dieting world; whether they are healthy weight loss regimens, or here today – gone tomorrow noxious crazes. The creator of the Lemonade Diet, Stanley Burroughs, intended the diet to be used for detoxification purposes. Many people now favor the added benefit of weight loss as well.

Some celebrities have used the lemonade diet to lose a tremendous amount of weight in a very short period of time. Jared Leto, singer for the band 30 Seconds to Mars and acclaimed actor, lost 62 lbs he gained for a role in the film Chapter 27.

“8 days after I was done with the film, I fasted for 10 days, and I got right back on the road with 30 Seconds To Mars (his band), Jared said.”

However, some now call the Master Cleanse diet the “Beyonce Diet”. Beyonce made headlines after announcing in 2006 that she lost 20lbs on the Master Cleanse diet, in order to play the role of her younger character in the hit movie Dreamgirls.

Beyonce stated, “Normally they’d change your make-up or your clothes, but I wanted to go the extra mile. Back in the sixties, models like Twiggy were popular. I knew Deena would have been thin then, so even though I really love eating, it was necessary to lose weight really fast because we shot Deena at 16 and Deena at 36 two weeks apart.”

Robin Quivers, host and radio personality of the Howard Stern show, also advocates the Master Cleanse, stating, “This wasn’t about weight loss,” says Quivers, who traces her health problems to steroid-based medication that she took in 1989 to regulate her menstrual cycle, “I was really trying to regain my health, and that’s what it did.”

Angelina Jolie, Denzel Washington, and Ashanti are among countless other rumored celeb lemonade dieters.

So is this diet safe and are these celebrities being health conscious?

The answer from many repetitive Master Cleansers, dietitians, and health professionals is a resounding yes – it not only supports weight loss, but also cleanses the blood, organs, and digestive tract — expelling toxins that have accumulated over the years. However, like with any diet or detox program, it is important that you are thoroughly informed, are doing it the right way, and are doing it for the right reasons.
