Vital Cayenne Pepper Water Lemon Maple Syrup Drink Info You Need to Know

Recently, talented singer and actress Beyonce Knowles extolled the virtues of a new "wonder weight-loss drink" that has cayenne pepper, water, lemon maple syrup as its ingredients.

Is this the long-lost colon cleanse secret formula used by the ancient Aztecs? Is this drink the actual Fountain of Youth Cortez was looking for? Is it a drink recipe given us by aliens? No, no and no!

This drink is purported to facilitate weight loss. Moreover, to get right to the point, this is not a colon cleansing drink. That this drink will expedite weight loss is debatable. In preparing for her role in DreamGirls, however, Beyonce Knowles was quoted as saying, " "I lived on water, cayenne pepper and maple syrup for 14 days."

Numerous sources on the Internet affirm she lost 22 pounds in just 2 weeks for her Dreamgirls film role.

What this drink is, I believe, is a cleansing drink, but again it is not a colon cleansing drink per se. I do know a lot about cayenne pepper. I've been taking it for 20+ years. Cayenne pepper is one of the greatest health secrets in the world.

It is marvelous for the heart and its main metabolite ingredient capsaicin has been proven on three different continents in four separate studies to cause lung, leukemic, prostate and pancreatic cancer cells to self-terminate in a process known as apoptosis.

Pure, organic maple syrup is also teeming with trace minerals especially manganese and zinc. Moreover, notwithstanding its impressive nutritional profile, it has a wonderful, sweet taste.

Lemons too are very nutritious. They are high in Vitamin C an important antioxidant and vitamin. So, this combination could expedite weight loss while feeding the cells vital nutrition. It's not perfect, though. It is lacking in the full array of vitamins and minerals needed for sustaining health.

That said, if the drink had some bee pollen granules added to it, it just might be a real nutritiional powerhouse that cleanses while it provides vital nutrition. Why bee pollen? Bee pollen has every vitamin, mineral, amino acid, enzyme and trace nutrient necessary to sustain life.

Carlson Wade in his book on bee pollen said one could live on 22 grams of bee pollen granules a day and could live with one's full nutritional needs met (minus fiber, of course) on 30 grams a day. Bee pollen is a secret supplement known to athletes as it improves the libido, endurance, facilitates weight loss as it equalizes the metabolism, and gives energy.

Summary of Cayenne Pepper Water Lemon Maple Syrup Drink Page

Beyonce's liquid diet was extreme and shouldn't be followed without medical supervision. That said, I myself have undergone numerous juice fasts in my life. The result of such juice fasts is that it can provide:

• Much-needed rest to the digestive tract
• Toxin removal from the body, i.e., from the blood and lymphatic system
• Weight loss

It is not, however, a colon cleansing drink, it is a cleansing and/or weight loss drink. Actually, I'll stick with calling it a cleansing drink for weight loss is a natural byproduct of caloric reduction. This drink combined with sensible cleansing procedure could work well, but I'm not completely sold on it just yet. In fact, Beyonce Knowles herself discouraged others from using the cayenne pepper, water, lemon, maple syrup drink.

In an interview in The Age in New Zealand, Beyonce said, "''I would never recommend it to anyone unless you are doing a movie and it’s necessary, and you have proper help. There are ways to lose weight healthy if you want to lose weight, but this was for a film.'' You can read the article here.

Now you know the full story on Beyonce's fabled secret drink.

In closing, juice fasting of this type is not as hard as some may think but it should be done with judgment. Not that it's easy, mind you. It could be very challenging, but we'll save this discussion for another webpage dedicated to discussing juice fasting and colon cleansing.

I hope this "cayenne pepper water lemon maple syrup" web article has been useful to you.
