I just cleaned up the article a little bit more, moved it from "Master cleanse" to "Master Cleanse", added a few cats and a link. I'm going to remove the orphan tag... --nathanbeach 19:19, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

This seems like instructions, not information. I think the article needs to be rewritten to be objective and factual.

Are there criticisms? Factual backup? history behind the master cleanse? quoting Boroughs make the article less reliable especially sine there is no reference to the first name... -- (Unsined comment from 151.191.175.220)

I suspect a copyright violation. The page looks like a verbatim copy of [1]. -- Gridlock Joe 02:20, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

I think that this article is highly suspect. First off, it seems to be instructions, and not information. Second, the complete lack of medical support makes me very uncomfortable, because it seems that wikipedia has an article which enables unhealthy habits and/or masked eating disorders. If you follow the external link, you find the journal of a slim woman who does the diet beyond the 10 days and then complains that she still needs liposuction. The pictures show her as a woman with no need for weight loss surgery. Overall, I think this article is irresponsible and unprofessional. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]]).

For what its worth, i have done this and it is certainly not a mask of an eating disorder for everyone who does it. It is the most common, and from what i understand the safest, fasting method around. Seriously, you would be amazed what comes out of you after 6 days on this. Seriously though, the lemonade recipe is correct, but this is certainly not a complete set of instructions to do the master cleanse. You know, if someone will go over what i submit so it fits within guidelines i could easily improve this article. Contact me! Dogmatix2 11:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree, this article was lacking some important contextual information. I've added to it as much as I can for now, and would encourage others to seek out additional sources for criticisms and responses to criticisms.BFD1 18:10, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
