Default Herbal Cleansing

Has anyone done a herbal cleansing?

I am doing this month long tripack my mom gave me that she ordered. She swears by them and my brother likes it too(he's in Africa and needed something to clean his body out from his adjustment to the diet from his former Western culture)

It supposedly cleans out your intestines of parasites and impurities(I had been having a lot of boils lately and since the dr said insulin and glucose were normal at the time he stated that my body was just releasing toxins through my skin in boils(ugh) So I was looking into cleansing out my body of all the nasty little toxins.

The cleanse is this tea(drink once a night), fiber powder(scoop once a day(yuck) and pills(2 a day for 10 days then 4 a day for 20 days.

The tea and pills are fine, the powder is gross.

But I tell you, day 2 and bowels are (TMI) bulked, stinky and numerous.

Just wanted to know if anyone experienced anything good from all of this? My mom says she feels really clean in the end and does it twice a year every 6 months.

P.S. I'll do it and finish it since she paid like $77.00 bucks for it. Geez I would never spend that much on some tea, powder and pills. But hey, oh well.

P.P.S. I never got the boils until I changed my diet from sucky to lucky. I went from total bad to medium bad to good now and its like all the bad stuff is coming out because all the good stuff is going in. Anyone else have this experience.

Well maybe I should have posted it in the alternative forum since no one has answered. Down two more pounds from it.

If someone has the authority then, you can move it to the alternative forum to where it could get answered.

Can you post a link to what you talked about?

Mine is this Lifiber brand from Unicity. Its supposed to be a top brand product.

Its just with all this weight loss all the bad stuff is going out and not necessarily pleasant (boils)

I just was looking into something to cleanse my blood of all the toxic sludge. Its what the doc said to do or suffer with the boils (the hateful things)

You should hear my intestines (LOL) sounds like a train in my belly. Well all that cleanse stuff on top of the spinach salad at lunch, my intestines think its a dance club in there.

I have done them before, they are no big deal; mostly used to detox your body. Can find at most health food stores.

I've been trying to gear up for a "spring cleaning" fast. The trouble is that I'd like to follow a program from a book, but of course we're broke right now. If I do end up finding a way to get my hands on something, I'll write up what I'm doing and the results.

Default Talk about timely...

I've been considering doing a cleansing regimine for a few weeks now.

I was getting ready to do a Lemon, Cayenne, and Olive oil regime like suggested in the following article:
http://www.deliciouslivingmag.com/ma...articleID=1884

I usually pick up Delicious Living when I go to my natural food store and find helpful information.

Anyway the Lemon, Cayenne, Oil regime seems less invasive... or at least maybe a little less time

Keep us posted on your progress.

Salty - your posts crack me up! I am also interested in the herbal cleansing...I'm a bit scared to try it...do you take your daily medicines and supplements before you do the cleanses?

Thanks!!

I take everything including met with it..


the pills , powder and tea that I am taking for the cleanse are all natural stuff like black walnut husk, psyllium and such(stuff to clean your colon) They don't stop the absorption of the met or the other vitamins I am taking, which is met, fish oil, low dosage aspirin, B12, Folic acid.

The tea at night is actually good, the pills(no flavor) the powder(getting better now that I mixed it with sf juice)

I do feel a little cleaner per say probably just emptier(no boils since the last one yet)

There's some scary stuff that has come out of people...parasites and such.

Do you have more energy? maybe that happens later.

Parasites are not that scary, every time you breath outside or inside your house, microscopic bugs can be there and get in your body and back you up. I feel fine....I take B12 too, it gives you energy which metformin can deplete.
