Master Cleanse

I know there have been a lot of inquiries about this in the last month so I'm going to give an update of my experience.

I'm on day 4 of my cleanse and I feel FAN -EFFIN- TASTIC...

But then again, I've been too busy to really think about tasting food...

Joshisgirl is on day 6 (I think)

Im almost completely better. Not on antibiotics but still have an awful cough. Once this is gone Im doing it!!!

---

Yeah I recommend you do it when you're 100%

The first night is really rough because you're essentially going through a detox and it is NOT fun...

Wow I really wish I could do it. The pooping in the morning thing did not work good for me. Sorry TMI.

---

Hey the last time I was a little confused. I read on a website to do either the laxative or the salt water flush but I think you said you did both? Do you do both?

Do you do the salt water flush before work??? I have to sit on a bus for an hour so I was worried about doing it prior. Instead I did it at work and it was not good!

Also how do you get the warm salt water down...ugh.

Annnnd does the going to the bathroom happen every day and for how many days?

I do both... The laxative tea takes about 8-10 hours to kick in... So I take the tea right before bed and it USUALLY wakes me up in the morning (around 4:30am) with little cramps so I'll do the flush...

I take the tea right before bed and it USUALLY wakes me up in the morning (around 4:30am) with little cramps.... Which is good b/c I wouldn't get up early enough otherwise.. so I usually do the flush and THAT has been kicking in like 40min-hour later... so I just go back to bed... and then I have to *go* about every 15 minutes for like an hour... I go back to bed in the meantime... and am USUALLY done by the time I have to leave my house at 7:15am. No, it doesn't happen for the rest of the day... Weirdly enough I don't pee throughout the day either... nothing more than normal you're supposed to do the flush every morning but I skipped this morning bc I wanted to sleep in... hahaha

I get the water down by holding my nose and taking 1 cup full gulps until I get it all down.
Try to do it fast...

And the flush makes it come out faster??

---

you'll be going to the bathroom within 30 minutes to an hour... and then it lasts for about an hour (read my reply above)

after the first few days, its like water...

Ohhhhhh then I think I will definitely do the SWF because when I tried to start the last time, the laxative had me in the bathroom ALLLLL DAY. I almost couldnt make it to the gym at 6:30 and I took the laxative the night before.

---

yeah I don't have to go poop during the day.

Im just wondering what the point of this is? Is it good for you? I mean it has to be since people always do it but what does it actually do?? Do doctors suggest this? Sorry Im clueless and I really wanna know! Thanks

It's pretty much fasting to rid the body of toxins, created by improper diet..

You're esentially dissolving and eliminating toxins and congestion

(from an article I've read)

to cleanse the kidneys and digestive system; to purify glands; to eliminate waste and hardened materials in the joints and muscles; to build a healthy bloodstream; to maintain optimal blood pressure..

So basically it is a detox. Detoxing your body flushes out all the unhealthy chemicals, toxins, and undigested weight which has accumulated in your body due to years of unhealthy eating, stress, indigestion, and other factors.

You don't realize what cr@p there is in food these days and sometimes you just need to rid yourself of them... My experience with the cleanse has been positive. I do it when I feel I have lost control with my diet and I'm feeling mentally bogged down, I do the cleanse (about once a year) and jump start a healthier lifestyle.

Sure, I could just start eating raw foods but I like to have a clean slate first.. Kinda restoring my body's natural biological balance and start from there.

I'm on day 5 and I am feeling more energetic, and mentally clear (if that makes any sense)
It's strange, its as if I can FEEL energy around me... I feel positive and light.

True, you DO lose weight, I think I've lost about 5 pounds but I don't recommend anyone doing this JUST to lose weight. you're PROBABLY going to gain it right back.. especially if you go right back to your old eating habits. The losing weight part is just a side effect and is the reason why people have labeled it a *fad* diet. It's a detox for me...

Some people have claimed they had life long allergies that were relieved from doing the MC, I read one testimonial where a woman who had her insulin take cut in half... people who have regular back pain relieved... weird skin problems relieved.

hope that explains things

did anyone see the office last night????? If not - check it out on NBC.com....you'll understand why once you watch...
