Thanks chattanoog! That was really helpful. good luck on your cleanse :)
Is it alright to use spring water? I didn't buy the distilled water because I thought you aren't supposed to drink it.
Chattanoog already knows this but LaEnsalada, there are a few of us from this thread http://www.goneraw.com/node/15086?page=11#comment-122006 that are starting an MC this weekend (I'm starting Friday). Good luck with yours! Let us know how you're doing :)
My dad and I started yesterday, we're about to make the lemonade for our second day. Yesterday wasn't too difficult but I was sooo tired this morning it was really hard to get out of bed.
Floridated water is not good for anyone, Floride is a poison and Contrary to what media and many have said you should never use anything with floride in it not even toothpaste, if you go to naturalcures.com Kevin trudea talks about it if you look it up. But distilled or pure water of any sorts is better then floridated water.
hey I've got a master cleanse question!
I am doing a 14 day master cleanse (currently on day 3). When I woke up this morning I felt horrid-hot and shaky and the mere thought of the "lemonade" made me want to barf. My husband fetched me about 3/4 cup of o.j. and after sipping it for 30 minutes I was able to hobble out of bed and tend to our 3 little ones. I feel OK right now but have still not had any lemonade and am dreading it! I juiced 1/2 a lemon and the smell was too much. Has this happened to others? I went on a 10 day cleanse last summer and didn't have this problem at all, I actually enjoyed the taste.
Also, is anyone else doing a cleanse right now? It would be nice to be able to "check in" with other folks :)
eatcake- Limes can also be subbed in if you think that might help get the mix down. Sorry to hear your trouble. I am starting the cleanse tomorrow. If you would like to track it on here with me I really think I will need the support!
I think you are all set to start! It's pretty simple :)
The first time I did the cleanse (last summer) I was able to function quite fine, (I am a stay at home mom of 2). My husband however works at least 8 hours and is on his feet (making scrumptulescent raw granola) and he got to day 3 and realized he'd need to eat to be able to do his duties.
I managed to get down ONE glass of the lemonade today, sheesh. I've just been drinking water. Is that OK? just water?
I know when the cayenne is involved I get LOTS of mucus out, so plain water won't help with that.
Anyhow, we'll see how it goes...
And good cleansing to the rest of you!
HI~~~
I AM GOING TO START THIS DETOX SOON BUT BEFORE I WANTED TO DECIDE EITHER TO DO THE SALT WATER OR THE LAXATIVE HERB TEA.....CUZ THE SALT WATER THING...IT JUST MAKES ME SO CONFUSED AND I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE REALLY HARD TO DRINK SALT WATER ........SO I DECIDED TO JUST GO WITH THE TEA..SINCE ITS EASIER TO DRINK THE TEA......
AND SINCE I CHOSE TO GO WITH THE TEA I WAS WONDERING IF I HAD TO DRINK THE TEA ONCE OR TWICE A DAY.......
LIKE I THINK ITS TWICE A DAY FOR 10 DAYS RIGHT?
LIKE DRINK A CUP OF TEA IN THE MORNING IN A EMPTY STOMACH AND THEN
ANOTHER CUP OF TEA AT NIGHT BEFORE GOING TO BED.............
SO 2 CUPS OF LAXATIVE HERB TEA PER DAY FOR 10 DAYS??? (MORNING AND NIGHT?)
AND IF SO, I WOULD NEED TO BUY THE TEA, BUT HONESTLY LIKE I REALLY DONT KNOW WHICH LAXATIVE HERB TEA IS THE BEST TO USE ...
DO YOU RECOMMEND ANY??? PLEASE.? :)
