I am eating lots of fresh fruit and veg. With some lean protein.
Drinking lots of water and a cup of green tea when I feel I need to ‘have’ something.
I am not eating any dairy or red meat. Have also been skiping breads, pastas, rice..ect.
I am going to continue this way of eating even after the cleanse. I will just add back in the things I have taken out such as dairy.

As the body begins to break up the store of toxins, they get released backed into the digestive and circulatory system. Part of the detoxification system through skin and sweat.
The toxins coming out of the body might cause zits and head aches.
Provided the cleanse you are doing is safe and effective, those are probably just signs the cleanse is doing it’s job. If you continue, the toxins will leaves your system and those problems will go away.

I haven’t researched herbal flushes or colonics though.
If an herb makes you need to go to the bathroom, it has toxins in it which the body is trying to purge. Maybe that helps clean out the guts, I don’t know.

500 char limit on comments and I don’t feel like making a video about it atm
Open google, enter colonic detox scam, detox foot bath scam, herbal detox scam, you will find hours of lit to read.
In my early 20s I smoked a pack day, 8 cups of coffee, breakfast from Dunkin Donuts, microwave dinners. I went through several detox plans and diets,I have tried colonics and herbs personally.I detoxed went vegetarian, etc
I think cleansing diets and fasting is wonderful but be skeptical

jgelhaar asked how could fasting be hard on the body. I answered, in place of Bellonzi, I said Starvation fasts can be damaging after a few days. You came along and offered up the notion that juice fasting was fine. The topic is not juice fasting, juice fasting, is not really fasting anyway. The topic was fasting being hard on the body. A hard fast is when you don’t eat anything. After a few days you eat yourself, that’s called starvation. I may be defensive but you are off topic.

yes there are a lot of different ways to fast, but there is only one real fasting, that is complete abstinence from all food. A juice fast is a really a select diet. Fasting is abstinence from all food. Juice is still food, and must be digested. If you have fruit or vegge juice in your guts, you are not fasting. I a big fan of juice fasts. I am not bringing them down. I juice fast, I love the way I feel on juice fasts, but it is not technically fasting, its a diet.

and there are a lot of different ways to fast.

there is no disagree/agree here. I made no exception for juice fasts. I said hard fasts. A hard fast is not a juice fast. A juice fast is not a real fast. When you run fruit or vegge juice into your body, you have to digest it, which means your alimentary canal is still working and not resting. juice fast will not cause muscle breakdown for the reasons you mentioned. I was talking about starving, hard fasts, total abstinence from food. That is unhealthy beyond a day or two.

Years ago, all DR’s were taught in basic med school that ALL drugs were to be treated as ‘poison’.. Because it is. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case these days..
With drug reps barraging the docs daily about this study or that study, Docs start thinking drugs are actually beneficial and not poison.
The whole thing is a disgrace. (Please don’t flame about the benefits of certain treatment - I understand that completely - I’m talking about overall Rx use)
