well since I haven't told my mom that my b/f is addicted to opiates, she didn't really give it to me for that. But in general it's supposta help literally clear out your system. Mind you this might be a problem if you have the runs... but maybe not... I don't really know. She said she had done it and a couple days into it she felt a little queasy, went to the bathroom...and umm...let it all out.
I know that's the last thing you feel like doing in this stage of w/d where it probably feels like there's nothing left to let out but it still keeps comming..
Sorry if this is kinda gross. BUT... she said after that she felt really good and refreshed, even a clearer mind.
I don't know if it will help... but I took the recipe for my b/f anyway. He hasn't tried it yet cause I keep forgetting to get the pepper.

The Master Cleanse is not a fast, but a cleansing program. A true fast consists only of water, while the Master Cleanse incorporates a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper that is consumed throughout the day as a source of calories, vitamins, and minerals.
The Master Cleanse is ideal for anyone who is not diabetic and can safely cleanse for at least 3 to 7 days. The ideal duration of a cleanse can extend from 1 to 3 weeks.
Master Cleanse Program
Take the juice of 1/2 lemon (preferably organic)
Mix with juice into 8 ounces of distilled water
Add 1-2 Tbsp. of grade B maple syrup
Add 1/8-1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (red)
Drink as many 8-10 oz glasses as required according to your body weight per day. If you weigh 100 pounds then you would drink half your weight in ounces which would be 50 oz or 5 glasses.
Grade B maple syrup is one of the most balanced of all sugars containing a balance of positive and negative ions. Grade B does not enter the bloodstream as rapidly as honey or sugar which is better for people who react adversely to sugars, (becoming restless sleepless, and energetic after consuming sugar), or may be borderline or pre-diabetic. Diabetics should substitute blackstrap molasses for maple syrup using up to 1/4 tsp.
Contrary to popular belief, lemon is not acidic in the body. It turns alkaline in the mouth. If an acid-like reaction is observed when using lemon with water, it is due of the mineral content of the water. Distilled water will not react in this manner.
Cayenne pepper is a blood vessel dilator, thermal warmer and provides Vitamin A. People who have type O Blood tend to have poor circulation. As a result, their body temperature may drop during a cleanse. Because cayenne is an herb known for its ability to warm and restore circulation it may be taken internally and used topically (especially on the feet).
For the deepest cleanse, it is recommended that you cleanse for at least 2 to 3 weeks. Exercise enhances the cleansing action of the program.
During the middle and later phases of the cleanse, the body chemistry changes and energy levels may begin to increase. One may experience minor discomforts such as headaches, upset stomach or low energy as toxins and parasites are released from the body. These symptoms will be short-lived.
It is important to have a positive attitude during cleansing or fasting. If you are unaccustomed to the cleansing, you can prepare yourself by fasting one day a week. Sunday or your Sabbath day, is a wonderful day for this purpose. The biggest obstacle to successful cleansing is fear of failure and not knowing what to expect.
To fast for 24 hours, it is easier if you begin at noon of one day and finish at noon of the next day or from one dinner to the next. Again, drink plenty of water.
As you begin to fast, you may experience some unpleasant side effects of cleansing such as a headache, nausea, bloating or irritability. These symptoms are part of the cleansing response and are often a result of toxins and waste matter being purged from the body which usually takes place within 12 to 36 hours. In any case, you may want to consult your health care professional.
You may have an unexpected emotional clearing. There are various essential oil blends designed to help control your emotions and modulate and facilitate the emotional release. Herbs like St. John's Wort, Kava Kava and Hops Extract are excellent for managing stress and negative emotion. Ideally these herbs should be take using oral infusion therapy (sprayed into the inside of the mouth where they can be most efficiently delivered in to the blood).
The first 2 to 4 days of the cleanse are often the most difficult, since you will be over coming the powerful psychological need to eat. As your body is cleansed of parasite and putrefying toxins, you will experience a sudden surge in energy and well being. Tapeworms, pinworms and round worms often start to appear in your stools (after 4 to 6 days), physical hunger will fade away. As the cleansing progresses, your mind will become sharper, your memory will improve and your spirit will become more buoyant.
Remember: It is crucial to drink plenty of distilled water thought out the day at least 8 to 10 eight ounce glasses. Water is crucial for not only flushing out toxins, but maintaining the metabolic machinery of your cells and tissues in proper working conditions.
To conclude your fast, drink fresh orange or apple juice. When you are ready, add organic brown rice slowly into your diet.
As with any program of caloric restriction it is strongly recommended that you consult with your health care professional before undertaking any extended fast or cleanse.
