INGREDIENTS
As part of the Lemon Detox program, an all natural liquid drink known as the Lemon Detox drink is consumed. This special all natural mix includes the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup®, fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper and pure water. The Lemon Detox drink supports the body by providing the necessary nutrients needed while undertaking the Lemon Detox Program.
MADAL BAL NATURAL TREE SYRUP®
The secret in the 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 a high level of potassium.
PURE WATER
The purifier
The use of clean, pure water carries all of the ingredients through the body, giving your body an internal bath, carrying away all of the released wastes and toxins. Sufficient levels of water also keeps your body hydrated during the Lemon Detox program.
LEMON JUICE
The regenerator
Lemons have been used for thousands of years for their cleansing value. The lemon juice acts as a detergent, cleansing your inner organs.
CAYENNE PEPPER
The king of herbs
Cayenne pepper ensures that your body's metabolism is still optimal during the cleanse. Cayenne pepper also adds a nice zing to the drink.
LAXATIVE TEA AND SEA SALT WATER
As part of the Lemon Detox program, senna tea and a sea salt drink are consumed. These two ingredients help trigger the elimination process. Elimination is the transportation of waste out of the body and is a major key to success.
ORGANIC SENNA TEA
The natural mover
Senna tea has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to aid digestion and help to increase bile flow. Senna is a mild laxative with purgative properties and also acts as a stimulant which reduces a dieter's appetite.
It is important to try to have at least a couple of bowel movements a day. To assist with this, a mild laxative herbal tea is recommended. Drink one cup of tea in the evening before bed and the sea salt water in the morning. Some people find that certain laxative teas induce cramps, so be sure to start with a mild brew when trying it for the first time.
SEA SALT
The Eliminator
The sea salt water drink is a great laxative that will ensure toxins and wastes are effectively washed out of your body. The sea salt-water drink will produce a bowel movement because its salinity level is similar to the salinity of our body.
When mixing the sea salt-water drink (two teaspoons dissolved in one litre of warm water), make sure to use uniodized sea salt and not table salt.
You should try to drink as much of the 1 litre drink as possible. Finally make sure you stay near a restroom for the next hour.
If the taste of the salt water is uncomfortable for you, you can substitute it for another cup of the herbal laxative instead.
Drink the sea salt-water first thing in the morning.

ELIMINATION
The key to success
Eliminating the toxins in your body is the key to a successful diet. Elimination is the transportation of waste out of the body. The better the elimination, the better the results. Waste in your body that is not continuously removed will be reabsorbed through your system.
We recommend that you drink at least 1 - 2 litres of water in addition to the Lemon Detox drink, to effectively flush the system. The more fluid in your system the less concentrated the dissolved toxins will be on your eliminative organs.
Any problems which occur during the Lemon Detox Diet are usually the result of inefficient elimination.
Brushing your skin and light exercise are also a great complement to the Lemon Detox Diet.
WHICH PROGRAM SUITS ME?
WHY THE FULL BODY CLEANSE VERSION IS THE BEST WAY TO DETOX?
The single most important part of a detox program is not eating solid food. Some people worry at the prospect of going without solid foods, yet such fears are groundless. Not eating may sound daunting, but it is much easier than you think. The Lemon Detox cleanse is based on consuming liquid food. It is not a fast. A true fast is complete abstinence from food of any kind. The Lemon Detox drink, however, is a liquid food, energising the body while you take a break from solid food.
It is very important not to burden the body with solid food during the Lemon Detox program, as it hinders the cleansing process and reduces its effectiveness. Most detox diets that promise an internal cleanse whilst still consuming foodwill not do as well as complete abstinence from food. Here's why:
Food contains chemicals and additives, so consuming it will add more toxins during a fast. This hinders your ability to release the accumulated toxic build-up present in your body.
Eating requires a lot of energy to digest, assimilate and eliminate. This is energy intensive, and your body is not able to rest and restore. When you stop eating, your whole body is at rest. This is when the body allows itself to restore balance. In short, your body becomes rejuvenated.
Although the relaxed version incorporates eating a healthy meal per day, it is only a minimal consumption of food and will not dramatically hinder the detox program, compared to detox diets that require constant consumption of solid foods.
