The body needs to retrain when coming off the Master Cleanse diet

Going through the Master Cleanse diet can be difficult for some, but successfully getting off the program and back to normal eating is perhaps the most important aspect.

It’s not a good idea to go back to eating solid foods immediately after a fast. For the past few days, the body has only received nutrition in liquid form. He will not be used to a normal diet and will need to be reintroduced to it gradually. Trying to go back to your usual diet too soon could cause nausea.

Getting off the Master Cleanse diet is almost the same process as getting on it, only it’s the other way around.

On the first or second day after finishing the entire program, it is recommended to drink several glasses of orange juice. Make sure you don’t swallow them too quickly. If you have any difficulty drinking orange juice, simply increase the amount of water until it becomes easier to drink. On the afternoon of the second day, prepare some vegetable broth.

For the third and fourth days, have an orange juice breakfast, followed by some raw fruit for lunch and a fruit or vegetable salad for dinner. It is still not recommended to consume eggs, fish, meat, bread, pastries, milk, coffee or tea at this time.

By the fifth day, your body should be ready to eat normal food again, though you still need to take it easy. Moderation is key. There may still be some digestive upset, so don’t be alarmed if this happens. In this case, all you have to do is go back to orange juice for a couple more days.

It’s also highly recommended that you use some probiotics after finishing the Master Cleanse, as the process may have reduced or eliminated the amount of good bacteria in your digestive tract. These bacteria help with digestion and produce several important vitamins for the body.

It’s understandable that you’re pretty hungry after coming off the diet, but don’t be tempted to stuff your mouth with whatever food you can find. Keep in mind that your body will not accept the sudden change in diet well and you could end up getting seriously ill. For optimal results and to stay safe, you should gradually come off the diet. The same goes for reintroducing solid foods into your eating plan.

Getting off the Master Cleanse diet is just as important as getting on it. Just as the body needs to be prepared to subsist on a liquid diet instead of solid foods to begin the diet, it must also be prepared to stop receiving only liquids and relearn how to absorb normal food again. Rushing through the Master Cleanse diet will almost certainly lead to failure, and going off too fast can wreak havoc on the digestive system. If you want to increase your chances of following the diet successfully and then reap its full benefits, come off the diet the same way you did: gradually. Good luck!
