The Lemon Detox has helped tens of thousands of people. Over half a million litres of the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup, used in the lemon detox, is now sold in 33 countries each year.

The body has miraculous powers to cleanse itself. Unfortunately much of what we eat today in the western world is useless. Numerous chemicals and toxins that have been introduced into the natural environment can find their way into our bodies through the air we breathe and the water we drink. The Lemon Detox lets the body cleanse itself naturally while you take a break from solid food.

People who have completed the Lemon Detox programme frequently report a wide variety of benefits including:

• Cleansing the body of toxins

• Weight loss if overweight

• Greater resistance to illness

• Stronger willpower and determination

• Improved concentration and clarity of thought

• Increased energy and vitality

• Clearer skin and eyes

• Shinier hair and stronger nails

• Happier, more positive outlook

• Greater sense of inner peace

Originally introduced more than 30 years ago by the naturopath Stanley Burroughs, and later developed in Switzerland, it is now practised in over 30 countries across Europe, Asia and America, the Lemon Detox is a holistic approach to long-term health.

 

The Lemon Detox Diet allows the body to cleanse itself naturally while taking a break from solid food. 

The body has miraculous powers to cleanse itself, but a growing proportion of us in the developed world eat too much food lacking in nutritional value and of little benefit to our bodies. Our system has to work harder and faster to eliminate the waste created by these foods. In addition, the numerous chemicals and toxins that have been introduced into the natural environment can find their ways into our bodies through the air we breathe and the water we drink. This puts added strain on the elimination processes in our bodies 

The Lemon Detox Diet is a drink consisting of pure water, fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper or ground ginger and Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup. Whenever you get hungry simply mix a glass of the drink. 

The Detox Drink

To make one glass of Natural Tree Syrup and Lemon Drink take

• Two small tablespoons (or 20 ml) of Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup. 

• Two tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice (about half a lemon). Use fresh lemons, not lemon drink or concentrate.

• Half a pinch of cayenne pepper or ginger (adjust to taste).  
  

Mix the ingredients and dilute with half a pint of hot or cold water.  

Drink as much as you like, ideally 6 to 9 glasses a day. 

If you prefer you can prepare one batch of Natural Tree Syrup and Lemon Drink to last for the whole day. For 2 litres of water (approx. 7 glasses) you will need 140ml of Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup and 3½ lemons as well as the cayenne pepper or ginger.

The main challenge of the programme is mental. Because we are accustomed to eating whenever we feel like it, the discipline of not taking any solid food can seem a bit daunting. Eating has become a habit and like any other habits it's not so easy to break, even temporarily. It is often very tempting to cheat during the detox. Don't give in to temptation. Stick to it! Be strong! When you experience hunger simply treat yourself to another Natural Tree Syrup and Lemon Drink. Keep thinking of all the benefits you will achieve when you have finished the Lemon Detox Diet and can enjoy solid food again. 

A true fast is complete abstinence from food of any kind, yet the Lemon Detox is liquid food - nourishing and energizing. It is important not to burden the body with solid food during the detox. Digesting solid food consumes much of the body's energy and overrides many of its other tasks. In the absence of solid food the body can focus its energy on cleansing. Throughout history, experience has shown a periodic abstinence from solid food to be a blessing for the entire organism, the best investment in improved health and a longer natural life span. 

While the actual inner cleansing and rejuvenation is performed by the body itself, the Natural Tree Syrup and Lemon drink fulfils important functions in assisting this process: It supplies the nutrients necessary for the body's continuing alert functioning, assisting to restore the biochemical and mineral balance in tissues and cells and expediting cell regeneration. It is assimilated directly into the bloodstream, placing no additional burden on the digestive system. It provides a liquid medium essential for the efficient flushing of wastes from the system. 

The acidity of lemon juice assists the cleansing process, acting like an internal detergent to dissolve excess fats and the cayenne pepper or ground ginger helps speed up metabolism, thus promoting circulation and the elimination of toxins.
