  The Master Cleanser September 11, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
The Master Cleanser Diet information is an excellent source for promotion of good health and feeling good. I highly recommend this boook to everyone.The diet is simple and easy to follow.
  Great results September 10, 2007 124 out of 128 found this review helpful
I've been on this program for over a week now and feel great! Not to mention that I've lost a lot of weight, althoug that could only be temporary... My skin seems to be smoother and I have the great feeling of being light and well. I must say that it can be difficult to stay on the program and it requires a lot of will power.
I do like the taste of cayenne pepper in my drinks. It makes them more pleasant to swallow ... If you know someone with a serious disease or addiction make them try this program -- it should bring good results. You will be surprised! Another really GREAT book with all kind of internal cleansing methods is "Can We Live 150 Years?". In fact these two books should be sold in one package.
  Why is it taboo to criticize this book? September 10, 2007 17 out of 43 found this review helpful
I've run into a number of people spurred by the promise of quick weight loss or the belief that they're infested with "toxins" to try this radical "diet." What's astonishing to me is how disinclined people have been so far to question how this motley array of kitchen detritus -- water, lemons, maple syrup and cayenne pepper -- came to assemble itself, or how this perplexing combination of ingredients is specifically supposed to flush out these supposed "toxins."
Reading the book, my first reaction was to wonder how such a text has gotten as far as it has. It only makes sense when I consider my anecdotal experience that it's really the recipe that has travelled far and wide, while the rambling explanation behind it has, to its benefit, remained rather obscure. The author of this terse manifesto of folk medicine wastes no time in proclaiming that his peculiar lemonade (it may have more aptly been Kool-Aid) will cure any disease. He further proclaims, without evidence, that all germs are "our friends," that fungi help us rid our bodies of "toxins," and that asking for the blessing of a meal will raise its "vibrations." Other claims are very easily checked, and should smell fishy even to the casual observer: that lemons and maple syrup provide all the nutrition you need is but one example.
Practitioners of this "diet" flutter with amazement at the results, vindicated that their weight loss that has confirmed the validity of the science behind it: as if there is somehow a correct way to starve yourself.
  Book: 4 stars; Cleanse: 5 stars September 8, 2007 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I don't know about the updated book, but my version has some typos and incorrect page references. Some of the information (like honey is bad for you internally) is questionable, but the diet/cleanse is solid! I am currently on day 10. I have tried it a few times before and could never get past day three; this time, I had help with my "timing" and am now on day 10. I am going to continue on for another 10 days or so because I didn't do the salt water flush everyday (I only did it twice) and after reading at Glickman's message board, decided I will go on and continue the cleanse "to the letter." (Heck, I've come this far.)
Results (so far): My energy level went from lethargic to energetic in 48 hours! I have lost 10-12 lbs (or so), but what is more amazing is my depression is gone (and I wasn't expecting that). In addition, I have had a lump the size of a small sausage in my abdomen (for years); I've had tests (drank horrible liquid and sent into a scan); the doctor said is was most likely irritible bowel syndrome... whatever it was, it is gone. After reading another poster who had chronic swollen lymph nodes (which I had as well, but only on one side); I checked my neck... gone! This lymph node has been permanently swollen for two decades or more.
However, my tongue is not quite pink yet (indicating the toxins have not yet left my body completely... probably due to the lack of complete elimination fostered by the salt water flushes), so I will keep going until I feel completely cleansed.
I will do this going forward at least once a year; probably twice (every six months).
Best of luck!
  Definately Read this if going on the Master Cleanse August 27, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you are going to go on the Master Cleanse read this book along with another newer version. This book is the basis of the diet and explains why it is such an important thing to cleanse and detox your body. It was written in the 70s so its a bit outdated and formatted strangely, but the concepts are clear. I wouldn't use it soley as a resource if you want to do this diet, but its an important guide to go along with starting the Master Cleanse. The Master Cleanse does work and its amazing. I'd urge any one interested to read more and check it out for yourself.
