Welcome to the world’s premier and most prestigious body cleansing program. The Lemon Detox cleanse.

Invented in 1941 by the legendary naturopath Stanley Burroughs, the Lemon Detox has survived through the ages simply because thousands of health conscious people from every corner of the globe have successfully performed the cleanse in helping improve their health and wellbeing.

Many people have found the Lemon Detox cleanse to be life changing and a simple and easy way to regain vitality, energy and willpower.

The Lemon Detox program offers more than just a great way to lose excess weight.

It gives us a simple and effective opportunity to take control of our lives. It can be spiritual. It has a positive effect on the mind, body and soul, and it provides us with a time for reflection.

It is evident through scientific studies that there is a connection between one’s eating habits and one’s consciousness.

Perhaps, Swiss practitioner, K A Beyer, who formulated the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup

®

summed it up best...

“ The very purpose of food is to strengthen the body and maintain health, yet many of us have turned eating into a deadly act of weakening our bodies and destroying our health”.

Today, we live in a fast paced society, surrounded by endless stresses and the worries of the world. These unhealthy conditions have forced our bodies to take a beating. Involuntarily, we have become mutations of today’s culture, not for the better but for the worse.

As we all live and face different challenges and lifestyles, the Lemon Detox offers several different program versions to suit each individual. From mothers with children, to the busy time poor person, to the socially committed, there is a version that will suit every lifestyle and need.

Many feel totally reborn, free from worries, fears and anxieties and some say it has even given their life new meaning. The Lemon Detox does not directly solve all our problems but when the body is fit and strong we can concentrate on the use of our mind and spirit.

“As my body loses its superfluous weight, my being becomes more luminous and my spiritual being clearer and more resolute”

Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup® The secret is in the syrup

The most important ingredient, the Madal Bal Natural tree Syrup is a specially formulated syrup exclusively for the Lemon Detox program. It is a combination of specially selected pure South East Asian palm syrups and Canadian Grade C maple syrup. The natural tree syrup provides us energy during the cleanse in the form of an easily digestible carbohydrate and a high level of potassium.

The syrup is collected by traditional methods then processed and hot-packed in a modern facility in Canada. It is 100% natural and does not contain any stabilizers or preservatives.

No palm oil is used in Madal Bal Natural tree Syrup. Extraction of the syrup does not involve cutting down of trees and does not effect any wildlife.

Ingredients - Only pure and natural

As part of the Lemon Detox program, an all natural liquid drink known as the Lemon Detox drink is consumed. This special all natural mix includes the Madal Bal Natural Tree Syrup, fresh lemon juice, cayenne pepper, and pure water. The Lemon Detox drink supports the body by providing the necessary nutrients needed while undertaking the Lemon Detox program.

Stage one of the Lemon Detox program:

8

Lemon Juice - Ascorbic acid The Regenerator

The humble lemon, a fruit with an extraordinary number of uses, is one of the main sources of minerals and vitamins in the Lemon Detox program. Lemons contains a wide range of beneficial properties. The citric acid assists in carrying out important functions in the body.

The acidity of lemon juice assists the cleansing process, acting like an internal detergent to dissolve excess fats.

Although acidic, lemon juice has an alkalizing effect on the body. Vitamin C is necessary for the manufacture of collagen in the body. Vitamin C also aids digestion and metabolism, so important during the detoxification process.

Cayenne Pepper The king of herbs

Its health benefits are many, varied, and are truly astonishing. Capsicum Annuum (Cayenne pepper) has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to help support peripheral circulation and aid digestion. It supports the movement of blood through bodily vessels as a result of the heart’s pumping action

The cayenne pepper also complements the nutritional value of the Madal Bal Tree Syrup and the lemons. High in Vitamin A, cayenne pepper also adds a nice zing to the drink.

Pure Water The Purifier

The use of clean pure water carries all of the ingredients through the body, giving the body an internal bath and carries away all of the released wastes and toxins from your system. It also keeps the

body hydrated during the Lemon Detox program.

Organic Senna Tea The natural mover

Senna tea has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to aid digestion and help to increase bile flow.

While cleansing, it is important to try to have at least a couple of bowel movements a day to ensure that dissolved wastes are eliminated from your system. Senna is a mild laxative with purgative properties and also acts as a stimulant which reduces a dieter’s appetite.

Sea Salt The Eliminator

As it is necessary to bathe the outside of our bodies, so it is with the inside. The sea salt water drink is a great laxative that will ensure toxins and wastes are effectively washed out from your body.

Unlike table salt or processed salt, the sea salt water drink will produce a bowel movement as its salinity level is similar to the salinity of our body.

As part of the Lemon Detox program, senna tea and a sea salt drink are consumed. These two ingredients help trigger the elimination process. Elimination is the transportation of waste out of the body and is a major key to success.

Stage two of the Lemon Detox program:

10

Are You Ready to Take the Challenge?

It’s much easier than you think! The main challenge of the Lemon Detox program is the mental preparation. Once you have set your mind, you have already succeeded before you have began.

Be inspired that only after a short period of days, you are going to transform your mind, body and spirit into a new you.

The human body is a miracle that functioned efficiently long before science came around. Through the ages we have managed to weaken our bodies and destroy our lifestyle with the increase of toxins in our daily life. The Lemon Detox Diet program - Rejuvenation sensation is a journey to happiness and an improved life.

Throughout history, experience has shown that a periodic abstinence from solid food to be a blessing for the mind, body and spirit. If you are looking to take more conscious control of your life the Lemon Detox program is a natural, simple, safe and effective program which will help you rejuvenate and revitalise your body, and improve the quality of your life.

13

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)

Our bodies cannot store ascorbic acid to any extent and replenishing it as regularly as possible is crucial. Vitamin C is essential for the proper function of the immune system by supporting the activity of the white blood cells and antibody response. Vitamin C is necessary for the manufacture of collagen in the body. Vitamin C also aids digestion, so important during a weight loss program.

Garcinia Quaesita fruit

Only found in Sri Lanka, this forbidden fruit is a natural appetite suppressant. The fruit’s dried rind contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA) which has been clinically shown to inhibit the conversion of dietary carbohydrates into fat. It is extremely helpful with weight control as it induces weight loss through thermogenic action.

Ingredients—The Natural Selection

Selection does not come without the focus of synergy. Lemon Burn is a specially synergised formula made from the worlds most famous natural fat burning ingredients. The Lemon Burn formula is specially designed to help you burn body fat and lose excess weight.


14

Citrus Aurantium fruit

Well known as an appetite suppressant and having thermogenic effects, but its main function is increasing the resting metabolic rate. A metabolism increase makes the body burn fat at a faster rate than normal, which is

effective for weight loss.

Gymnema sylvestre leaf

Native to the tropical forests of southern and central India, this herb helps support healthy blood sugar levels and possesses lipid lowering effects. Gymnema anaesthetises the sweet taste buds, an effect that can last many hours. This may have implications, both subtle and

obvious, in weight control and dieting.

Paullinia Cupana

Native to the Amazon basin these seeds have a long history of usage as a stimulant and are an ubiquitous ingredient in Brazilian drinks.

It is a rich source of caffeine and can improve cognitive performance. It also increases heart rate and contractility, inhibits platelet aggregation and stimulates gastric acid secretion.

15


Zingiber officinale root

Zingiber, better known as Ginger helps to maintain body temperature and inhibit serotonin-induced hypothermia in vivo. Ginger stimulates the flow of saliva, bile and gastric secretions and therefore is traditionally used to stimulate appetite, reduce flatulence and colic, gastrointestinal spasms and generally acts as a digestive aid.

Fucus vesiculosus whole plant

A seaweed found on the coasts of the North Sea, increases basal metabolism with its high level of iodine. Traditionally Fucus has been used in slimming teas and has had positive effects on maritime people who use seaweed in their diet.

Camellia sinensis leaf

Camellia sinensis has potent antioxidant activity and may therefore assist in protecting the body from the damaging effects of free radicals. The antioxidant activity of Green tea can assist in protecting the cells in the body against oxidative damage. It also assists in the maintenance of a healthy cardiovascular system and supports the health of blood vessels.

16

Lemon Burn also contains these water soluble and naturally occurring nutrients that aid the whole fat burning process. Choline and Inositol specifically function closely together.

Choline bitartrate

Without Choline, fats become trapped in the liver where they block metabolism. Choline supplementation increases the accumulation of acetylcholine within the brain. Choline is involved in fat and cholesterol metabolism and transport. In this form, Choline aids in fat metabolism and transport away from the liver.

Inositol

Inositol functions closely with Choline and is a primary component of cell membranes as phosphatidylinositol. It exerts beneficial effects in liver disorders, depression and diabetes. It has weak lipotropic activity, and can move fat out of liver and intestine cells.

Chromium picolinate

Chromium is an essential nutrient required for carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism in the body. Chromium functions as an organic complex known as glucose tolerance factor (GTF). It potentiates the action of insulin and thus influences carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism.

Warning:

Vitamin supplements should not replace a balanced diet. With any weight loss program a typical balanced diet must be followed.

PNH Lemon Detox Express is a specific formula developed to assist the liver detoxification process. This formula contains herbs that have traditionally been used in herbal medicine to aid digestion and help stimulate bile flow.

A powerful liver tonic, it helps to maintain healthy digestive function, and contains potent antioxidants that assist in protecting the liver and the body against the damaging effects of free radicals.

Understanding the effects of ‘free radicals’

Free radicals are common in the body, arising through a variety of mechanisms. Some are generated in the body as part of the normal energy-producing process, some are generated by pollutions, and some are generated by lifestyle factors, like dietary fats, cigarette smoking, and alcohol ingestion.

As we age, our bodies produce less antioxidants to combat the ongoing destruction caused by free radicals. The accumulation of free radicals is critically risky for people’s health. Research shows that free radicals can result in cellular damage, and some symptoms such as skin ageing, cardiovascular disease and water retention are related to free radicals.

Lemon Detox Express can be used with any new diet program or can be used in conjunction with the Lemon Detox cleanse as a post detox maintenance program.

Ingredients

Ascorbic acid - Vitamin C

Our bodies cannot store ascorbic acid to any extent and replenishing it as regularly as possible is crucial. Vitamin C is essential for the proper function of the immune system by supporting the activity of the white blood cells and antibody response. Vitamin C is necessary for the manufacture of collagen in the body. Vitamin C also aids digestion, so important during a weight loss program. Vitamin C is also an important nutritional antioxidant and free radical scavenger. It protects the body from the damaging effects of free radicals.

Silybum marianum

Known as the Liver Tonic King, Milk thistle extract is a hepatoprotective herb, which supports detoxification of the liver and normal liver function. It is a proven liver tonic which assists in the detoxification process. Milk Thistle is also an antioxidant herb which assists in decreasing the risk of cell damage attributed by free radicals. Milk Thistle also supports the regeneration of liver cells.

Taraxacum officinale extract

Traditionally used in Herbal Medicine to help treat digestive disturbances and to help increase bile flow.

21

Foeniculum vulgare

The Fennel seed herb has also traditionally been used in colon cleansing and body detoxification. The seeds from this herb can expel toxins from the body by way of diuresis and diaphoresis, meaning the herb will increase urination and perspiration (two of the mechanisms used by the body to purge itself of toxins).

Senna extract

Senna has for thousands of years played a major role in herbalism and in folk medicine. Senna extract has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to aid digestion and help to increase bile flow. It is a mild laxative with purgative properties and also acts as a stimulant which reduces a dieter’s appetite.

Rhamnus purshiana

Also known as Cascara Sagrada, or the ’Sacred Bark’ has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to aid digestion and help to increase bile flow. The dried, aged bark of this tree has been used continually for at least 1,000 years by both native and immigrant Americans as a laxative.

22

Warning: Vitamin supplements should not replace a balanced diet.

Psyllium husk

Psyllium has medicinal properties that work effectively to treat both diarrhoea and constipation. This herb seed infusion works similar to a sponge that absorbs toxins present in the stomach and makes the toxins expel when you have bowel movement.

Its main benefit however, is in preventing constipation and promoting colon health. The natural fiber in Psyllium increases the weight of our bowels, and acts as a safe laxative.

Psyllium increases the feelings of fullness in the stomach after a meal, and as a bulk forming laxative, promotes bowel regularity and excretion of fat in stools, thereby preventing its storage in the body.

Capsicum annuum

Capsicum annuum has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to help support peripheral circulation and aid digestion. Its supports the movement of blood through bodily vessels as a result of the heart’s pumping action.

Taurine

Taurine is a main ingredient in bile and aids in the digestion of fats and the absorption of vitamins that are fat soluble. It is a necessary acid that our body produces naturally. Bile acids have an important role in the emulsification of dietary fat.

True Lemon Helping Children Fight Obesity

Australia’s obesity epidemic has received enough attention in the past couple of years for us to be well aware of its risks. Researchers tell us that one in four Australian children are overweight or obese, and overweight children are likely to become overweight adults.

What can I do about Childhood Obesity?

A healthy weight can be maintained by balancing the amount of energy going into a child’s body (as food and drink) and the energy being used (for a child’s body to function and grow and physical activity). Eating a balanced diet and leading a physically active lifestyle can help maintain a healthy weight.

Nutrition Suggestions

Children should be encouraged to drink water and to limit intake of sugary beverages, eg soft drinks. True Lemon, True Lime and True Orange are the perfect compliment for children who wish to be drinking as healthy as pure water without just the pure water taste.

The hope is that with a decrease in soda consumption, the obesity epidemic might decline as well. Over 75% of kids drink soda on a daily basis, and with the average child taking in about 250 to 325 calories of soda a day!

Instead, parents, PTAs, teachers, coaches, and students themselves should take an active part in helping to get this new guideline moving in their schools. There is no reason to wait but plenty of reasons to get started. The facts are simple: excess sugar – a.k.a. soda and sweetened drinks – leads to obesity, caffeine speeds up heart rates, phosphoric acid in soda interferes with calcium absorption in the bones and artificial sweeteners are linked to many health concerns.

Helpful Healthy Tips

It’s tough, really tough! There is no one diet that is right for every person. Different body types have different requirements. However, there are certain basic principles that we believe are important to follow on any diet.

Try to keep down the amounts of processed foods that you eat. Processed sugars, refined foods, and saturated fatty foods all can have a detrimental effect on the body, as can alcohol and too much caffeine.

Listen to your body and try to stick with natural, whole foods. Try eating lots of fresh vegetables and experiment with different combinations.

There are thousands of tips that you can find to help you lose weight and eat better. It’s really amazing. All these tips are great but the choice goes back to you.

On paper these tips and choices are easy, but at the time that we need to assert these choices we need to be prepared mentally, to starve off any tricks the stomach and mind may play. Once you have mastered this, eating will be much simpler.

Here are some useful tips that we think may help you:

Snack on vegetables, i.e. celery, cucumbers and tomatoes. A cut up

cucumber and celery sticks are far more attractive than eating whole.

Take time to chew your food. Don’t eat in a hurry. Let your body digest

the food. Eating fast tricks your brain into thinking that you are not full.

If you take it slow, you will feel fuller sooner than you think.

Drink Lemon juice regularly. Best before a meal and at the start and

end of the day. This allows your body to help cleanse and digest. It

really works!

Drink lots of water throughout the day. This will keep you hydrated

and your mind off food.

Never allow yourself to be very hungry. You usually end up eating

more than you need to. We make poor choices when we are

very hungry.

52

Don’t buy snacks and savouries. You cannot eat them if you don’t

have them.

Add pepper and ginger to your meals. This aids in metabolism and

increases the body’s thermal rate.

Get rid of the salt. If you really need to, use uniodized sea salt.

Limit bread. Food is tastier without the carbs. Substitute bread for a

fork instead.

Skipping meals does not help you lose weight. Eat lighter meals more

frequently. This will make your metabolism high and you will not feel

hungry between meals.

Steam and grill rather than fry.

Serve food on a smaller plate. The bigger the plate the more the weight.

Fill the plates at the kitchen counter. Avoid having serving dishes full of

food at the table, which tempts you to have seconds and thirds.

Exercise at home. Even if it’s a little, its better than nothing. Push ups,

sit ups, jumping, hopping, skipping. all can be done in a 2m2 area.

As with any other weight loss and diet programs, there still needs to be

a considerable effort put in by you.

We hope that you can try a few of these tips. Combined with any of

our weight loss or detox programs, you will be able to train your mind

and adapt better eating patterns in no time.

Living Lemon

The Lemon Effect

The many health promoting benefits of the lemon cannot be published in this booklet due to the laws governed by certain authorities in Australia. Although, you can find thousands of web pages and written articles testifying to the magnitude of the powerful effects of the lemon, we have respectfully reserved certain information from this booklet.

Lemons have been used for thousands of years for their rejuvenative qualities and medicinal value. Today, It’s full potential effect is often overlooked. Is it because the lemon is now so abundant that we have taken its powerful health values for granted? It may just be, as it is easy to just see through things that are constantly around us.

The health benefits of lemons are endless. Apart from its rich nutrient and mineral content, the acidity of the lemon juice provides an alkalizing effect on the body helping it to break down fats and mucus. It is now beginning to be appreciated that biologically actives in lemons such as phyto-chemical antioxidants have been found to be helpful in reducing the risk of many health related problems.

We hope that you have enjoyed this booklet and have a new perspective on the amazing effects of the humble lemon.

Which ever program or diet you wish to choose, we encourage you to ‘Live a Lemon Life’.
