Many people who were on Lemon Detox program claims it can effectively cleanses your body, strengthens your immune system, makes you feel energized, gives you a positive, happier outlook on life while also clearing your skin, making your hair shinier and, most importantly to a lot of people, helps you lose weight.

All these benefits is by replacing ALL solid foods with up to 10 glasses of the lemon mix a day (mix of lemons, maple syrup or honey and cayenne pepper) between 5 to 14 days.

A little bit extreme don’t you think? And although many Hollywood celebs & models claims that the drink provided enough nutrients to satisfy one’s hunger cravings, i decided it won’t work for me - any starvation program is simply insane.

So for 5 days,  I drink 1 glass of lemon detox every morning before i eat anything and  still consume low calorie/ low fat solid food + more fruits. Apart from the 1 kg i lost, i did notice the improvement of my skin. So i guess it works?

How to make a lemon detox drink:

• half glass of ice cold Water.
• 1/2 of a medium to large sized Lemon freshly squeezed.
• 2 tablespoons of honey or 100% Pure Maple Syrup.
• A pinch of ground Cayenne Pepper or ground Ginger
• stir well
