     Detoxing is not bad, our bodies sometimes need the extra umph to get rid of the toxins. This is definitely not an everyday thing. I use as a 1-2 day detox and a plateau buster. I'm beginning to love the cayenne pepper! - 7/13/08

     I've had a sore throat for three days and this made it feel better immediately; plus the pepper helped clear up my stuffy head. - 9/6/07

     substituted agave nector for the maple syrup. I used 100% lime juice vs the lemon juice. - 8/6/12

     1VALKYRIE: toanswer your question-- .1 teaspoon of cayenne or one tenth of one teaspoon is what the recipe says but the calories by ingredient list shows one tenth of a tablespoon which would be about one third of a teaspoon. - 6/23/11

     This is the recipe from The Master Cleanse. I'm currently doing this right now. It is my 3rd time and I am on day 19 of 20! - 11/19/10

     I substituted the maple syrup for honey which was a lot nicer i must say. - 1/19/10

     I use honey and freshly cracked pepper instead of the cayenne. Its also very good for detox. It is a very soothing drink. - 4/24/13

     Isn't there a reason to using pure maple syrup and not honey or other sweeteners??? And isn't it supposed to be 1 tsp of cayenne pepper??? - 10/13/12

     Reply to 1VALKYRIE's question: It doesn't say 1 tsp cayenne, it says 0.1 tsp which would be 1/10 of a tsp. - 4/28/11

     I drink about 2.5 cups ( 1 really large glass ) every few days & believe it does help with weightloss. The spicy-sweet taste is quite nice, especially when I don't overstir & there's a bit of maple syrup on the bottom ;) It makes me feel refreshed & that much healthier - 7/6/10

     Is that one teaspoon of cayene pepper in this recipe......or am I misreading it? - 5/8/09

     how often would you do this per day? & how many days?
    and does this replace all food - meaning, you don't eat anything else? - 10/20/08

     Not crazy about the syrup taste but with extra lemon it is okay. Does this really help to detox? - 3/12/08
