The Oxypowder has never been part of the MC. I'm glad that you are fine but there are several possibilities that you can do harm doing the OP on the MC. First you could realease more toxins that the system can handle all at once and make yourself sick. Two if you are doing both the OP and the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) there's also a possibility for dehydration so make sure you are drinking lots of water thoughout the day and third very likely you are interfeering with the cleansing action of the lemon and cayenne and because of the relatively agressive nature of the OP you are probalbly depriving your body of a lot of the nutrition provided by the lemon and the syrup since that is >all< the nutrition you are taking in.
The Master-Cleanse is a very simple, elegant and very efficient way to cleanse your system just the way it was written. More is not necesarily better. The OP can and should be done while eating regular.

This is a reply to # 233,023Neither.
I don't know about the water fast, but The Master Cleanser in NOT weight loss tool.
The weight you will lose is from all the junk and gunk in your body. Once you cleanse that out if you go back to eating as you did before the weight comes right back...trust me. I've seen many folks go on this primarily to lose weight and after a few months of eating incorrectly gain the weight back and then some.
The best way to lose weight and stay healthy is good old exercise and eating right. The cleanse is a good way to START that process of healthier living.
Have you read the book? Because nowhere in those pages will you find the program designed for weight loss. It was primarily designed to help folks who were ill, not overweight.
Be good to yourself and enjoy the cleanse for what it really is: a chance for a new start to your body and your mind.

The main concern between the 2 is whether you hafta function in everyday activities. The MC will provide you with calories, vitamins and minerals where you should be able to carry on a normal life and even exercise whereas in a water fast you are getting no nutrition and you are supposed to rest as much as possible.
Neither the MC or water fasting are weight loss diets. Their main function is to cleanse the system. Permanent weightloss requires a lifestyle/habits change and that is even more relevant when using any form of fasting to loose weight since all froms of fasting will slow the metabolism down. That is a catch 22 since most obese folks already have slow metabolisms making any from of fasting a losing proposition when using it for it for weight loss only.
Unless you undestand and are comitted to the follow up required after fasting to maintain any weight lost any form of fasting is a surefire plan for failure where not only will you gain the weight you lost back but you can gain back even more than you lost very rapidly because of the slowed metabolism. If you go back to your old habits you "will" gain the weight back and even faster yet if you don't incorporate regular exercise to help bring the metabolism back to normal and keep it up so you will contilue to loose weight in a safe a effective maner. It will take educating yourself, focus, comittment and time.
Because the MC is a cleanse and it will address the root causes of obesity it is a terrific way to jump start a weight loss program but it just isn't a weight loss diet without the essential comittment to follow up. It is just a tool that will help your system operate more efficiently so you can keep loosing the weight safely and effectively with proper nutrition and regular exercise. Read the links below for more insights on using the MC as >>part<< of a weight loss program. There just ain't no short cut. Obesity is not a thing in and of itself but it is a "health issue" and it's just a manifestation of many possible causes. Understanding and coming to terms with that is the only way I know to permanently loose weight.
Fasting is a no brainer. The real task and the reality of weight loss (health) is educating yourself and changing your lifestyle and habits and I'll say it again for good measure. Excersise ,exercise exercise !!!

This is a reply to # 233,025The general wisdom is that it takes 5 or 6 before seeing any results but be prepared to do at least a dozen or so before you stop passing stones. It took me 18 flushes before the all clear.
For me it's hard to judge what was doing what after my first 40 day MC. I was a man on a mission and was doing all kindsa things including exercising 5 to 7 days a week and eating a pristine diet of nothing but raw organic foods and lots of fresh made veggie juices.

This is a reply to # 233,029did you read the book?
"when to use it:
When a sickness has developed-for all acute and chronic conditions. when the digestive system needs a rest and cleansing. when overweight has become a problem. when better assimilation and building of body tissue is needed"
you will lose weight on it. from what i gather people gain back at least 10 pounds. but that is all food and water weight.
just like any diet if when you are not on it you will gain weight if you return to the habits that got you fat in the first place.
if you pick up the book burroughs recommends how to eat after the cleanse. there are also a couple recipes in there.

MoreThis is a reply to # 233,037I think sometimes folks try to find the path of least resistance to get the desired results.
MC is a start... not an end all be all.
I've been eating "right" and exercising regularly for at least 13 years. I am about one step away from becoming certified as a personal trainer and I have yet to see someone stay healthy and fit by fasting only. You have to stay away from the stuff that makes you unhealthy, period. It takes dedication...you learn how to get there if you really want to. And don't think you can eat that KFC, work out and that cuts it either...defeats the purpose.
Half the folks who have seen me fast and tried it have failed because their mindset was not in the right place...it's cleansing->eat better+exercise. Usually when this does not give folks the results they want they usually move on to the next thing out there, always avoiding the real solution to the situation.
Maybe we should start an exercise forum on here so the whole process comes together.

This is a reply to # 233,042it would be nice if in the title on this forum it had something like "a step towards a healthier you"
if you come across people that think they can eat crappy and fast it off you should tell them that they can develop an eating disorder doing those types of things.
i dont know how people can live on that junk food.it made me feel sick after 3 years.
or go back to once they have eaten well. another thing you can tell people when you train them is to tough it out for one more day when trying to eat healthy.
i am a reformed junk food eater and when i try to eat that stuff now it just tastes like big salty grease ball. i think i want it and then 3rd bite into i cant finish.
