Product Description

This is the first book devoted exclusively to the Master Cleanse since Stanley Burroughs wrote the original book in 1976. Written in a clear, simple style, it is based on the author's coaching hundreds of people, both live and on one of the largest Internet bulletin boards. It covers the widespread nature of obesity, the body's method of handling toxins by storing them in fat cells, how to do the cleanse, what detox symptoms are, what to do about them and what pitfalls to avoid. This book also contains personal experiences from scores of people as they did the cleanse day by, what to expect, which days are the worst, how the cleanse affects women, what ingredients to buy and answers the 70 most frequently asked questions. The author, Peter Glickman, has been a chiropractic clinic director, chelation clinic director (alternative medical procedure for plugged arteries), contributing editor to an online alternative health newsletter and president of two computer software companies.

Publisher of best selling diet books prefers Glickman's LOSE WEIGHT...to Craig Claiborne's

By Thomas Lipscomb

March 23, 2008

As the publisher of the number one bestselling CRAIG CLAIBORNE GOURMET DIET, I have tried both Glickman's and Claiborne's regimes, and Glickman's works far better.

I lost 20 lbs in 10 days, and made a major alteration to my permanent diet that keeps the weight off. The diet is simple, sound, easy to master and execute and it works.

Most diets are about as complicated as IRS instructions for your tax return and one can quickly find an excuse for giving up.

Following up the diet with a sigmoidoscopy to take advantage of the newly cleared intestinal tract should be the ultimate way to detect and prevent colon and intestinal cancers.

Any book this short that is this clear and this good should be in everyone's library.

From the Back Cover
"In my environmental medicine practice, I attempt to identify toxic elements, physical and spiritual. Then I can help the patient avoid, protect against or detoxify them. I follow that with nutrition to promote as much additional healing as possible. In detoxification, my goal is always to use what works without further harming the patient and I use many, many things.

"The Master Cleanse is simple and combines & surpasses many other detox methods. It literally has been a God-send to my practice. I am grateful to Peter for seeing, loving, and promoting the values of this cleanse."

James F. Coy, M.D., Past President, American Academy of Environmental Medicine

"This book is one of the best ways to get connected to a healthier body. It is simple, straightforward, easy to understand and to follow. Every athlete needs to understand that fitness and health start from the basics of cleaning out the disease-producing and aging-inducing toxins that accumulate from the average American diet. This book deals with one of the keys to health in our modern age. All the ingredients are readily available and no special (read expensive!) pills or shakes are needed. I am inspired by all the testimonials. If you are looking to get healthier...get this book."

"The increasingly large population of overweight people would do well to discover the connection between excess weight and toxins stored in their body.

"The basic cause for feeling tired, irritable and generally sick is due to excessive waste matter accumulating internally. This book clearly explains these links and gives personal examples from over a hundred people who have found a simple, inexpensive way to greatly improve their health using natural ingredients found in health food stores."

Customer Reviews

LOVED IT!!! The book, the cleanse the High!
I did a 13 day Master Cleanse and LOVED it! I had never done a cleanse and was not sure i could do it. I am a yogi and eat very well, but at 47 was feeling a little sluggish and chunky. After meeting three people in different circles that had done it, I thought I'd give it a go! The book was super informative and covered all the bases. I personally felt good to fantastic the whole 13 days, in fact i was energized! I lost some inches, my skin looks great, and I feel amazing! Since then, my son, two friends and their son have started it and love it! This book is definitely a must if you're ready to let go of some old stuff!

This book changed my life!
The things I learned from this book changed my life. I am a happier healthier me. I feel lighter and I don't just mean weight wise. I was surprised at how healthy I felt and how much negativity I had stored in me that was released after only 10 days. I had so much energy and I was cleansing at the same time.

Changed my life
I have never attempted a fast before. I always thought it would be too hard. This is a great book and really helped me through some of the rough times. It provides answers to all your questions on the Master Cleanse. I don't know if I could have done it without the help.
