Cayenne Pepper Diet Pros and Cons
The Cayenne Pepper Diet is a deep cleanse that can promise detoxification and health benefits. Created 60 years ago and used by tens of thousands of people to restore their bodies to a natural health balance. However you will need strong desire to be successful for the whole 10 days. Do yourself a favor and don’t underestimate the challenge that lies ahead.
The most difficult aspect is certainly the fact that you will not be eating food during the cleanse. In addition, there are other side effects which will influence your continuing motivation and desire to cleanse you body. Let’s go over these.
Hunger and Food Craving
Yes, you will feel hunger. During the first few days you will feel this most acutely as you experience not eating food. Perhaps this is the first time in your life you will feel genuine hunger. Many cleansers attempt to mitigate this by chewing on gum. Unfortunately, this doesn’t really work. I can recommend drinking more water to help with the cravings. If you can afford it, consider buying Hoodia. This natural supplement has good anecdotal testimonial evidence that it can help with hunger.
Headaches
While your body is detoxing, its common to get headaches as you withdraw from sugar and toxin addiction. Some people feel like a flu is coming on. Also consider that if you drink tea or coffee in the morning, you will be giving up the caffeine you have become addicted to. Headaches will result. Rest assured that these will subside.
Soreness
Drinking lemonade can result in mouth sourness at first. Lots of people experience this. Lemon is very acidic and will irritate your mouth and tongue during the first few days. This will pass and can be helped along by drinking lots of fresh water.
Irritation of the Skin
When the body is detoxing, you may experience skin irritation as these toxins are purged through the skin. You may or not experience these symptoms. This all depends upon how full of toxins your body is.
Note: Don’t let these dissuade you! These are positive signs that you are on the path to wellness. Temporary discomfort is the price to pay for better health after doing the Cayenne Pepper Diet. Realize that the most important thing is that simple awareness of the common side effects is enough to help you deal with it.
