Detox Side Effects & IBS

Hi, I've been a vegan for 1 year now. I've had Irritable Bowel syndrome, I've been thinking about Raw Veganism for while. I have tried to eat raw for 5 days and I started to have more BMs. Is it true that through the detox process that I'll get diarrhea?

I've went back to some cooked foods, because of the fear of that side effect.

Is there some foods that are raw that can help reduce that effect. Thank you. I appreciate all the help.

    Thanks for the reply. I was more concerned about the Detox effect of going Raw. Like diarrhea, I wanted to know how I can manage it while going through detox?

    At the moment I'm not 100% Raw, I eat some Quinoa and some cooked veggies, stuff like that. For a Colon Cleanse, well I have an appointment for a Colon Hydrotherapy in 2 wks. I find it's the easier one for me and less stressful. There is some things that I try to eat in moderation because of what it might do to me.

    Thank you.

    Hi there!

    I've had IBS for about 5 years now. I went from Veg to Vegan 2 years ago and have been off and on raw for the last year, more so trying to be 90 to 100% in the last few months. I do feel like Colon Cleanses don't help when it comes to IBS. Your body needs regularity and substance, when you mess with it like doing a fast or colon cleanse then it gets all confused and acts up.

    I have found that juicing is great on my tummy and a wonderful way to get a lot of nutrients!! I also agree with the comment about nuts, hard for me too. I LOVE them but can't do too many, I'm usally fine though if they are in some sort of a recipe with other items. And seeds are much better.

    I've found that using Natalia Rose's methods... juice in the am, fruit til noon and food combining are your best bets. Best of luck :)
