The maple syrup diet has a great name, but unfortunately that's pretty much the only good thing about it!
Originally written as a detoxification process, the user takes a mixture of lemon juice water, mixed with cayenne pepper and maple syrup, but not the sort you put on pancakes unfortunately!
The weight loss that results was initially noted as a side effect to the detoxing - but it's hardly surprising since the maple syrup diet only gives you around 500 calories a day.
You could eat *anything* and lose weight if you only ate 500 calories!
It's just not sensible clearly.
It isn't sustainable as the plan itself says, recommending no more than 10 days.
The biggest celebrity user, Beyonce, says she wouldn't recommend it and only did it as an extreme for professional purposes.
There are no long term benefits from this, because as soon as you stop, the weight loss, which would have been largely water, just goes back on.
This puts you back at square 1, unless you stay on the plan, which is obviously not possible!
That just makes it a pointless exercise in my view, so the next time you think of maple syrupm consider it a *very* occasional treat, and nothing to do with weight loss or dieting!

The Great Gordino is stupido
It is master cleanse program and not recommended for weight loss. It doesn't cause weight loss.
It is recommended for underweight persons too.
Have your ever taken that program? I have tried once for 21 days straight (I wanted more). I can say, it worked well, helped me stay active, while others in my office were eating out merrily and I never felt any carving for food.
Be alerted the first five days are terrible (motion like diarrhea).
I don't understand why this master cleanse program is represented as a weight loss program.
