The basis behind the diet is that it is meant to release your body of poisonous toxins. These toxins supposedly build up in your body as a result of chemicals it is exposed to through diet and environment. These toxins can then lead to a deterioration in quality of life through lack of energy, tiredness, disease and other conditions.
While on the diet your only intake throughout the day is the lemon
detox drink which consists of lemon, tree syrup, cayenne pepper, salt,
herbal tea and water. Many of these ingredients are recognised as
releasing toxins in the body. All the ingredients play different roles
in the detoxifying process.
