Instructions

Things You'll Need

• Fresh lemon juice
• Honey
• White pepper
• Spring or distilled water
• Herbal laxative tea (optional)

1. 

   Combine 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, one tablespoon honey, and a dash of white pepper in one cup of room temperature spring or distilled water. Mix well.

2. 

   Drink the lemon cleansing diet drink upon waking in the morning. Drink one cup of the solution every one to two hours thereafter for the entire day. Eight to twelve glasses can be safely consumed daily.

3. 

   Drink one cup of a safe and gentle herbal laxative tea one hour before bed to complete the one day lemon cleansing diet. This step is optional but will help clear out any excess toxins from the intestines and promote colon cleansing.

4. 

   For the next 5-10 days, drink only water, the lemon cleansing diet drink, and orange juice. Eat fresh fruits, veggies, and lean meats. The one day lemon cleansing diet will clear your body of harmful toxins, but if you follow with a healthy diet plan, you will lose weight and keep your digestive system healthy.

Tips & Warnings

• Real maple syrup or sugar free syrup may be substituted for honey, if necessary. Do not use sugar, sugar syrup, or "pancake" syrup that is made from sugar.

• The one day lemon cleansing diet can be performed twice per week, if necessary, for colon cleansing or general body cleansing. Never perform the diet two days in a row, or more than twice per week. Its fine to fast and cleanse your body for one day, but you'll be in need of food energy the next day.

• If a deep cleansing is needed, perform the lemon cleansing diet one day, followed by a day of drinking water and juice, and eating healthy, fresh foods. Then, perform the lemon cleansing diet again the following day.

• Do not eat any food on the one day lemon cleansing diet. This will cancel out the effects of the cleansing. If hunger gets the best of you, eat a small piece of fruit or whole grain bread to sate your appetite.

• Some people experience heart burn after ingesting fresh lemon juice. If you get heart burn while on the lemon cleansing diet, drink spring or distilled water in place of a few glasses of the lemon cleansing diet drink, until the acid subsides.
