What is the Master Cleanse?

Hi guys,

I've been interested in the Bowel Cleanse for a while, and stumbled across this Master Cleanse concept.

Sorry but there's just this ridiculous mass of hundreds of pages of individual messages under this category, I'm usually a keen researcher but in this case it's just silly that I'd have to scroll through all these individual posts (no-one bothers to post under other similar posts, they all have to start their own?!), so let's just follow the lead...

I've found plenty of information on how to and what to use for the Master Cleanse, but is anyone able to explain in short what exactly is this Master Cleanse? What is it used for, and can it replace the Bowel Cleanse, or are these two the same thing?

Thanks a lot for your help! :)

Jo
