Lemonade Fast

[Ekibiogami]

Hey seasoned tokers! Just wanted to share a technique that i sometimes use to cleanse my system(help pass DT as well as just better health), and enhance my highs at the same time!

Yes! I'm speaking of the infamous Lemonade Fast, honed by Ekibiogami! (I did learn this from a friend of mine, so i can't claim full credit.)

The Lemonade
-I recomend glass jars. Other containers such as plastics may leak harmful chemicals into your lemonade due to the acidic nature of the drink.
-Amounts differ by the size of your container. These are the approximated ratios.
-70% filtered water.
-20% lemon juice
-5% maple syrup (or honey.. but syrup helps the cleanse by loosening your digestive tract)
-3% cayenne pepper powder (i guess this could be substituted for other peppers, but i suggest cayenne).

Basically just take some water, add lemon juice, add some syrup (not too little, not too much!), add some cayenne.

You'll need a LOT of lemons, so stock up.

The Rules
-You CANNOT eat anything solid.
-If you get hungry, just drink the lemonade.
-You can drink plain water.
-If you can't do it anymore, and feel you will pass out, either quit or drink some plain water, which will help some. The point isn't to hurt yourself.
-I tend to do about a week, but you can do anywhere from 1 day onward. Just try to sense when you need to go back to a regular diet.

The benefits
-Personally, I have had clearer and more intense highs after fasting. This may vary from person to person, but i know of at least 3 people besides myself who have said that this works for them too.
-This fast is proven to cleanse your body of many toxins and generally clear your digestive tract.

Notes
-You will probably lose some weight on this fast
-You will probably defecate(poop) a lot on this fast
-When you stop fasting, be sure to gradually work back up to solid foods. Otherwise you will probably throw up a lot.

Cheers!

hey thanks for the recipe! my friend was just talking about this...ill have to try it out

[Ekibiogami]

bump.

[junkiedays]

This strikes me as funny right now.

Because there's like no food in my house, and the only thing there was to drink up until yesterday was lemonade.

So I've been drinking a lot of lemonade and not eating a whole lot.




Coincidence? I think not.

[Jimi Thing]

Sounds interesting, but idk if it would be worth it.

[marcusclarkus]

Don't you feel like shit drinking nothing but lemonade for a week? And isn't that bad for you?

[smokeandmirrors]

If you are planning to fast for a week, for whatever reason, you should consult your physician and personally, I think this is a really bad idea unless you are desperate to pass a drug test

[lurkontheLz]

LOL this was a joke on NBC's The Office the other week....if you want to diet stop eating unhealthy shit, or eat less of what your currently eating, this seems so unhealthy, your bodies need vitamins and nutrients as well as PROTIEN to function!!

[lurkontheLz]

oh and goodluck not shitting your brains our when you stop this diet, and eat solids again.

hate to be a nazi on this one but this is really not a healthy diet dude.

i think i might just stick to the occassional t break mate..

#1, this looks like the most retarded thing I've ever seen.

I highly recommend NOT trying this diet. There is no science or research to backup a fasting diet such as this... so why you claim this I do not know.

How do I know this? I spent 5 years of my life bodybuilding. I learned every diet out on the market, and I now consider myself a diet guru. I can guarantee you this was most likely made up as a joke.

None of the ingredients mentioned (except for water) have ANY health benefits, except also for honey which is sometimes used as a fast-acting carbohydrate.

If you did feel any sort of different high, it's most likely because you are starving your body.

[Ekibiogami]

The point is to clear out your system of toxins by defecating and urinating a lot. Its basically a flush out. And the increased high is due to the reduced tolerance to THC which results from the cleansing.

Definitely if you feel sick, stop. The point isn't to lose weight. This is not atkins. Its to cleanse your body of toxins.

You will be weaker because of the lack of solid food, but it will clear out many toxic chemicals.

And by the way, this cleanse was recommended to me by my doctor, who also happens to smoke weed (haha its great).

But yeah i agree that if you don't feel comfortable with it, don't do it. It's not for everyone.

[hockeytree]

I would reccomend you drink something like Naked Green Machine instead. The main reason being, you get all the nutrients (no protein though) your body needs and its all organic.

Very healthy stuff. I would love to be able to afford to drink only that, but my addiction to caffien beats up my wallet all day long.

[Ekibiogami]

But will that cleanse your system of toxins?

I agree that you can't live of this. It is a short term thing, designed for a complete flush of your digestive system. It's NOT suggested for nutrition.

Ordinarily, of course this drink does not have everything you need to survive. For overall general health, yes, Green drinks are king.
