Shopping List

      IMPORTANT NOTE: These quantities are based on six glasses of lemonade per day for the minimum of ten days. You should drink six to twelve glasses of lemonade per day. So, you may have to multiply these quantities if you drink more glasses per day or go longer than ten days.

      • Books: Lose Weight, Have More Energy & Be Happier in 10 Days by Peter Glickman and/or The Master Cleanser by Stanley Burroughs

      • 30 large lemons, 60 limes or small lemons, or a combination. Only buy half this amount and the other half later, if you buy organic, which is preferred. Organic spoils faster than conventional fruit.

      • 64 fluid ounces organic Grade B maple syrup or the darkest organic maple syrup you can find

      • At least four ounces of sea salt that does not say “iodized” or “iodine added”

      • At least six teaspoons (about one half ounce) of cayenne pepper powder, not capsules. Regular cayenne is about 30,000 heat units. You can use hotter if you like.

      • A box of at least ten herbal laxative tea bags. I recommend those teas with 50 percent senna rather than pure senna leaf tea.

      • At least eight gallons of spring, purified or distilled water without added fluoride or chlorine for the lemonade, salt water flush and a cup of laxative tea each evening. Fluoride was used for decades as rat poison. It is very injurious to human health and studies have shown it to increase the risk of cancer and hip fractures.

      • One box or bottle of probiotics to be taken per the directions on the bottle or box after you return to eating solid food.

      • These ingredients should be easy to find at any health food store, not grocery store. If you cannot find these easily, you can order them either at www.TheRawFoodSite.com/store, or if you have Peter Glickman’s Master Cleanse Coach iPhone app, use the Supplies link on the first or second page.

      • Do not buy cayenne in capsules. According to Dr. Richard Schulze, a master herbalist, people who take cayenne capsules do not receive much of the benefit of the cayenne. The nerve endings in the mouth respond almost instantly to send blood throughout the body. This whole process is missed if you take capsules. People who “hate” it or “can’t stand it” have simply used too much for their first taste. It is a learned taste. The way to handle “hating” it is to start by adding only a sprinkle and then gradually build up the amount as you can tolerate it.

      • Do not buy pre-mixed powders or ingredients. They must be pasteurized by law, which kills most of the enzymes in the lemon/ lime juice. I know from the personal experience of coaching someone who was using bottled lemon juice that it did not produce very good results until she switched to fresh squeezed lemon juice. Likewise, avoid all powders and pills for the same reason: dehydrated powders do not have the same effectiveness as fresh enzymes.

      • Do not buy additional vitamins or supplements. Burroughs says three times in his book, The Master Cleanser, not to take any other supplements. Fasting has been a powerful and natural way to heal and rejuvenate the body for thousands of years. Animals instinctively fast when they are ill. The Master Cleanse is a juice fast. Adding anything to it merely reduces the power of the fast.

      • Do not buy kits that contain less than 64 ounces of organic maple syrup. Some providers try to lower their price by shorting the amount of maple syrup because maple syrup is the most expensive item in the cleanse.
