The Lemonade Diet is more of a juice fast or a body cleanse or detox since you're living on lemonade for the entire time. You're not eating food of any kind - not even soup.
The diet was created to help rid your body of toxins that build up when you don't exercise or eat right. It's designed to help clear and clean your body's digestive tract, kidneys, and liver, while carrying out all the bad stuff that's settled in over time.
One of the reasons it might be gaining in popularity is because of the success a few celebrities have had with it.
The basis of the Lemonade Diet:
1. Two tablespoons of fresh lemon juice. This is approximately 1/2 of a lemon, and it should be freshly squeezed.
2. Two tablespoons grade B maple syrup. If you're diabetic and/or wanting lose some serious weight, you may need to reduce the amount of syrup.
3. A pinch of cayenne pepper, approximately 1/10 of a teaspoon. You can skip putting this in your lemonade and take a capsule three or four times a day instead. *Note: Taking cayenne capsules on an empty stomach burns.
Mix the above ingredients into a 10 ounce glass with distilled or spring water. The water can be hot or cold. Next step is drinking it.
Do this six to ten times each day (6-10 glasses of lemonade each day).
This is the basis of The Lemonade Diet. But there's more to it. Namely, you want to eliminate waste from your body, so you're supposed to use natural laxatives. Drink a laxative herbal tea in the morning and evening.
You can drink as much water or unsweetened herbal tea as you'd like throughout the day on top of your lemonade. The lemon juice and maple syrup have all the nutrients your body needs for this temporary fasting period, and the cayenne pepper will help boost your metabolism so the fat is burned faster. Most people try this cleanse for three to six days.
*Warning: Like most low-calorie detox programs, the weight will come off like crazy, but it'll also go right back on again if you resume your pre-Lemonade Diet eating habits.
If you decide to try Lemonade Diet, it's important to follow the steps and it's very important to come off the diet properly. When you go for extended periods of time without solid food, you have to slowly introduce solid foods back into your system.
Usually you start with soups and other liquids first, like freshly made juices and smoothies, then gradually move back into normal eating. Trying to eat "normally" after having been on the fast for a while will make you very sick.
