HOW TO MAKE THE LEMON DETOX DRINK

The Lemon Detox Diet is a drink consisting of the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup™, fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper and pure water.
All of these ingredients are necessary in completing a successful program.

• Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup™ - The most important ingredient. A combination of the purest South East Asian palm syrups and Canadian grade C maple syrup. The natural tree syrup gives us energy during the cleanse in the form of an easily digestible carbohydrate and the palm syrup adds a rich mineral content.
• Lemon Juice - Lemons have been used for thousands of years for their medicinal value. The acidity of the lemon juice has an alkalizing effect on the body helping it to break down fats and mucus. Lemon juice also adds a tremendous amount of antioxidants and vitamin C.
• Cayenne Pepper - Cayenne pepper is great metabolizer assisting with the cleansing effects of the lemon juice. Cayenne pepper adds a nice zing to the drink, but more importantly it also helps dissolve built up mucus. It adds heat to the system and thus stimulates circulation, helping the blood reach remote areas of the body, so important for effective cleansing and elimination. It is also a good source of Vitamin A and C.
• Pure water - The use of clean, pure water carries all of the ingredients through the body, giving the body an internal bath and carries away all of the released wastes and toxins. It also keeps the body hydrated during the detox.

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

• 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 (adjust to taste).

Mix the ingredients and dilute with at least 250ml of water.

If you prefer you can prepare one batch of Natural Tree Syrup and Lemon Drink to last for the whole day.

For a 2 Litre batch (approx.6-9 glasses), which is the recommend daily intake of the Detox drink;

• 140ml of Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup™,

• 3 ½ freshly squeezed lemons

• 3 pinches of the Cayenne Pepper.

Mix the ingredients and dilute with 2 litres of water

The amount of lemon juice should be approximately the same amount as the Natural Tree Syrup in the mix.

You may drink the Lemon Detox drink cold, room temperature or warm.

How much should I drink?

During the standard and optimum detox programmes, drink as much as you like. Ideally 6 to 9 glasses a day or whenever you feel hungry. People who are very physically active whilst on the program may increase their daily intake or add more syrup to the mix.                                                                                                              
Remember that the Lemon Detox Drink is liquid food, both nourishing and energizing. It provides the body with the required minerals and nutrients whilst on the programme.
Fluid intake is the key to the program. The detox drink will satisfy your hunger and give you energy.

What else can I have on the Lemon Detox program?

For optimum results we recommend that you do not eat any solid foods on the standard and optimum programs.

The ‘relaxed’ version allows you to eat solids but will take you much longer to cleanse. 80% of customers will do the standard or optimum version

We recommend you drink at least 1-2 litres of water in addition to the lemon detox drinks. Drink the laxative tea in the evening and the sea salt water drink in the morning.

If you feel the need for variety, then once or twice a day you can drink a cup of herb tea or freshly squeezed citrus juice (orange or grapefruit). Peppermint, rosehip and chamomile teas are useful complements to the Lemon Detox drink and make a nice contrast. Peppermint tea especially supports the cleansing process, offers relief from headaches, cleanses the palate and neutralizes any mouth or body odours that may arise. Teas and juices should only be sweetened with the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup™, if at all, and do not use or add any dairy products

Why don't we eat soild food during a detox.

What is the function of the Lemon Detox drink?

The Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup & lemon drink fulfils all the important functions of the cleansing programme.

• The Lemon Detox drink supplies the nutrients necessary for the body’s continuing alert functioning, helping to restore the biochemical and mineral balance in tissues and cells and expediting cell regeneration.

• It is quickly and easily assimilated into the bloodstream, freeing the energy of the body used for digestion to other tasks such as detoxification and cell regeneration. The drink supplies very little protein, further aiding the elimination process.

• It provides a liquid medium essential for the efficient flushing of waste from the system.

• The ascorbic acid in the lemons assists the cleansing process, acting as an internal detergent to dissolve excess fats.

• The cayenne helps speed up metabolism promoting circulation and elimination, dissolves the phlegm, and regenerates the blood. A good source of Vitamins A and C, which complement the nutritional value of the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup and the lemons.
