The Master Cleanse
The Master Cleanse works like this: for an unspecified period of time, you’re allowed to ingest nothing except for a mixture of water, lemon, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper. The cleanse is meant to flush your body of toxins and allow for a sort of fresh start, and for a day or two, it’s probably just fine. But the recommended length of time is actually 10 or more days, which is pretty much on par with starving yourself.
