Should I do the master cleanse?

A group of friends are doing the master cleanse for 10 days at the end of July. The Master Cleanse claims to be a way to cleanse the body of toxins. The cleanse involves drinking only lemonade made from fresh lemon or lime juice, maple syrup, water and Cayenne pepper. No solid food is eaten for the entire cleanse.

I just finished reading the first 35 pages of a book about the whole process. To be clear, I'm intrigued by it not for dieting or weight loss purposes, but more to see if there really is a detoxifying, positive effect on my mood and health. Plus, it could be hilarious fodder for writing.

Update: I did not do the master cleanse. Instead I opted for a 5 day raw diet cleanse. I had to end it on day 3 to take antibiotics for an unrelated condition.
