About Pancreas Cleanses

History

Burroughs was a researcher of toxemia in disease. One of his therapeutic tools, called The Master Cleanser Lemonade Fast, developed in 1941, was first created as a method to cure ulcers. It was found that it did more than that. This liquid lemonade diet detoxified the body and stimulated the growth of healthy tissue. This is a 10-day program that involves fresh lemon or lime juice, cayenne pepper, maple syrup and water. It also involves drinking an herbal laxative tea.

Why would we need a pancreas cleanser? To answer that question, we need look at some brief facts. Part of the function of the cells in the body is to rid themselves of toxins and waste that does not belong there. The waste stem from a poor diet, water pollution, lack of exercise and stress in amounts that our body is just not designed to handle. After a while, the body cannot contain the toxins, and they leak into the bloodstream and attach themselves to organs. This is when disease settles in.

Some diseases and medical problems that have been said (according to bc1.com) to have been cured through this type of cleanse include multiple sclerosis, infertility, cancer (with other therapies), allergies, back problems, arthritis, fatigue, colitis, candidiasis, migraines, sports Injuries and many others.

When we do not eat, energy that is normally used in the digestion process becomes available for detoxifying. Lemon juice contains cationic and anionic minerals that are found nowhere else; they are high in vitamins, and help break up mucus in the body. Cayenne pepper is another ingredient of the Master Cleanse. It also breaks up mucus and has a powerful impact on the cleansing of the respiratory, circulation and digestive systems. Maple syrup, another ingredient in the Cleanse, supplies the energy needed in a liquid diet. Lastly, herbal tea is used to rid the body of the waste.

Burroughs' method is not the only pancreas cleanse out there. Won With Nature Herbal Kidney/Pancreas Cleanse is an easy-to-use product that has the same effects as the lemon cleanse. This is a liquid that is taken once a day before going to sleep (see Resources below). This definitely sounds easier than a fast. Check with your doctor before you begin any type of new treatment.
