Question for those who've completed the Master Cleanse lemonade diet?
Okay so I completed 10 days of the diet and today was my first day in which to ease out of the lemonade routine. I drank orange juice as told in the guide and embarrassingly enough, experienced some discomfort and slight diarrhea throughout the entire day. Later in the day I decided to eat some beans since they are liquidy and then proceeded to take a nap. When I woke up I had the worst nausea ever and just thinking about food made me want to vomit. I’m trying to make the nausea and bowel discomfort go away but I don’t know what to do. Is this a normal occurrence when coming off of the diet?
I don’t understand though because others in my family did the diet as well and ate a few solid foods as they were easing out and didn’t experience any discomfort. They were also pretty liquidy beans so I wouldn’t consider them a completely solid food.

The same thing happened to me, I ended up vomiting for 2 days after coming off the diet. Go really slowly. The doctor advised me to eat very small amounts of dry white toast. I did this and came right in a few day time. The doctor was shocked by the diet because it is so acidic and harsh on the stomach because the stomach acid is undiluted because you don’t eat. So long as you make the transition really slowly you should be okey.
Good luck!
I don’t think you were supposed to eat the beans. I read all the instructions I found online and it clearly says orange juice on the first day only…probably as a measure to simply add more sugar in the form of a juice; the beans probably added too much solid food for your body to handle.
But since you had the experience, could you answer my question? :}
