For weight loss:
In the past, it was recommended to use less maple syrup - as little as 1 TBSP per 10 oz glass - to maximize weight loss on the lemonade diet. However, using more maple syrup provides sustaining energy that allows many dieters to maintain the cleanse. Thus, overall dieters are more likely to meet their weight loss goals using the same lemonade diet recipe that is recommended for detoxification, including 2 TBSP of maple syrup per glass.
