You will require ingredients like spring water or purified water, powdered cayenne pepper, organic grade B maple syrup,organic lemons and non-iodized salt to make the laxative. You have to purchase all these ingredients from the super market or health store. Some of these ingredients will already be in your kitchen while you can source the lemons from your garden or from your relative or friend or neighbor’s fruit orchard. You will need around 5 lemons for each individual every day.
Salt water is used as a laxative each morning but if you don’t like the idea of that you can use an herbal tea laxative. And if you want, you can prepare the entire detox drink at one go and it will last throughout the day. You have to drink your detox drink at least 6 to 10 times per day.
To infuse yourself with vital energy or more calories, you have to increase the number of drinks. But don’t go below the recommended amount of 60 oz as that won’t lead to body detoxification.
Lemon Detox Drink Recipe
Below I have described a recipe for how to make the drink with lemon & cayenne pepper that will equal one serving of this diet.
You will require 1 fluid oz or 2 American tablespoons of freshly squeezed lime or lemon juice, but please don’t settle for bottled juice. Along with this, you will also need 1 fluid ounce or 2 American tablespoons of organic grade B maple syrup and a pinch of cayenne pepper (to taste) and 8 fluid oz or one cup of filtered or distilled water. Stay away from fluoridated water.
You have to get hold of a large pitcher and mix all these ingredients together. Take a thermos flask or a water bottle and pour this drink into it and now you can carry this drink wherever you go. Whenever you feel hungry or thirsty, drink this detox juice.
You can also prepare detox drinks with carrot juice or beet root juice or bitter gourd juice or with cranberry juice. In fact most juicy fruits and vegetables lend themselves to detox diets and drinks. You can experiment with orange or pineapple or acai berry juice or amla (Indian goose berry) juice.
