The Lemonade Diet – Side Effects
There has been many things reported concerning the master cleanse. Many statements have been made about what this diet can do to a person’s body. There are positive and negative remarks being made even now. There have also been reports of side effects both good and bad.
A headache is one of the side effects that were reported by many people. It has been said that the reason for the headaches is the large amount of caffeine that was being ingested. It is reported that the headaches last 3-4 days at the most. There is a silver lining; a way to break the caffeine habit. The lemonade diet will help flush that need for caffeine away along with all of the other toxins. It will provide the opportunity to find other ways of remaining alert and awake.
Another side effect that was reported a lot was the cravings and the hunger. Many people are concerned about how they will endure without any solid food for 7-10 days.
It is often a true challenge to see how long it will take for the hunger pains to kick in. Many individuals last only a day or two, but there are individuals who have made it through 40 days or more. Most of the individuals who reported that they had more issues with the cravings than with the hunger pains. It is one of the rules of the lemonade diet that if one’s begins to feel hunger; drinking the lemonade mixture will ease the hunger. It has been reported that the cravings are generally the body’s way of trying to get an individual to eat and drink unhealthy things. It has been suggested that a way to determine if you are truly hungry or just having a craving is to see if an apple will satisfy your hunger. If the apple works, then it was hunger. If it does not work, then it is a craving.
Tiredness is another side effect that is often reported. There have been so many reports of individuals having so much energy; this side effect seems to have little merit. In the beginning of the cleanse, all of the energy is being used to get rid of the toxins that have built up in the body over time. It has been stated that the amount of energy used depends on the level of toxins in the body.
Many people have reported bowel movements as a side effect. It is a well known fact that bowel movements are part of the lemonade diet process, but it is also considered a side effect because of the frequency ,the texture of the movement and the burning sensation. There have been those who have had extremely loose almost watery bowel movements. It has been said that the warmer the excrement, the higher the level of toxin in the body.
