I just bought some raw agave from Whole foods and on the label it says it was processed at under 118 degrees.

Re: Adding anything else to the MC
Some people do okay with agave.. many have completed long MCs using it instead of Maple Syrup. I found it horrible in it's effects on my body... felt a lot like white sugar in my body, so I avoid it.

Re: Adding anything else to the MC
Does anyone know about catalytic water? I have used it as a 'more pure' drinking water, was wondering if it's ok to use this as my water for the cleanse.

I have used agave several times and some of those times for testing purposes. It worked great. I felt no harm at all. Diabetics can use it in place of maple and molasses (the molasses was horrid). The only reason you'd really want to swap the two is if you can't tolerate the maple.

I don't know enough about it to tell you if it's ok. I ran it by google and this batch has to have water added. ?? mmm k http://www.lifelinewater.com/water.html
Are you currently drinking it? Where did you hear about it and what will it do for you?

Adding anything else to the MC
Im trying to do the Master Cleanse, but I do not have Cayenne Pepper or the Organic Maple Syrup.
Could I use something like Paprika, Chili Powder. or something else similar to Cayenne Pepper? And could I just use about a teaspoon of regular sugar instead of the syrup?

Re: Adding anything else to the MC
Sorry, but you will need to get those ingredients before you can do the MC. The things allowed on the MC are very specific and each is necessary for the cleanse to work properly. You should take the time to get your ingredients in order before you begin. I will also add that mental preparedness is also an important part of the cleanse. So I suggest while you're gathering your materials you do a lot of reading on this forum to prepare yourself for the 10 days you will embark upon.
Good luck and happy cleansing!

Re: Adding anything else to the MC

Honestly I don't know. I don't really see a problem with it.
