Guest guest Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 * There is a Master Cleanse . Just go to the groups home page and do a search for Master Cleanse. The people there will probably have some good info for you. I have completed 10 days on master cleanse. I did a colon flush and really bad stuff came out. I am considering continuing the cleanse for longer and doing more enemas. Is this recommended? I am really ready to eat, mostly because I love food and miss it so much. Can anyone tell me if doing repeated enemas is safe and if so should I be supplementing with something? I have heard that too many can deplete needed nutrients and since I have little to spare on the no food plan I want to be safe. Thanks.

I am very interested in giving this a try and I promise to keep the icky details to myself and only tell of how I feel AFTER it is all over. There is now a folder of links in the Links section of the list website, under FASTING. rawfood/links My FAQ and the recipe are in the FILES section of the list website: rawfood The book from which this information came is listed in the book database and can be ordered from amazon.com The lemons are at the supermarket. The water is probably there, too. The sea salt, cayenne, and maple syrup are at the health food store. Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 I too decided to start the Master Cleanse today. Please continue with daily reports. Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Leah and Judy, I am on my 5th day of the master cleanse and so far so good. Working full time and its physical work as well. I am tired but that is the reason I decided to do the cleanse to begin with. The job is physically challenging for a 54 year old but then again even the younger seem just as tired they just move with more ease. I am hoping to complete the minimum 10 day cleanse. To share a stated portion of the book: " Recap of the steps to be taken in the diet. Be careful to read the entire instructions so that the diet will be of the best benefit to you. First prepare yourself mentally to follow in detail the entire directions and continue as long as is needed to make the necessary changes. One of the best signals of the completed diet is when the formerly coated and fuzzy tongue is clear pink and clean looking. During the diet it becomes very badly coated.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 I'm beginning the Master Cleanse tomorrow (tonight with the tea). We can do this together! Think of it as a spring cleaning...even raw needs cleaning now and then. rawfood , " Melody Miller " <YishiYoga wrote: > > Well, I'm on day 2 of the master cleanse and wondering why the heck I'm > doing this?

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 I think the master cleanse is pointless if you are using maple syrup reemember even if you can get your hands on organic maple syrup that still does not mean that it is raw. they have to boil it down in order to achieve a thick consistency. I reccommend using organic raw agave syrup from natures first law instead. You can't have cooked maple syrup why'll trying to detoxify since the maple syrup when cooked turns that fat in the syrup into free radicals in you'r body which damages cells in the body and at the same time you are trying to clean yourself out and that seems very contradicting to me. to good health and raw power! -jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Melody, I have no idea. I wouldn't do it to my body. It seems like it causes a lot of unnecessary trauma. A water fast would make more sense to me but raw food is cleansing in and of itself.

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 It calls for grade B because it's less refined and has more nutirents than grade A. I'd do it they way it's written to insure that you're getting enough nutrition.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 I tried it a few weeks ago and let me just say....NEVER AGAIN!!!! My mom tried it first and threw up for two days. So I tried it and literally could not leave the bathroom. I know a lot of people have great results with it, but I was not one of them. I will gladly stick to my yearly raw vegan detox.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Hi Shannon; I understand! Although it was very unpleasant for her, a violently ill reaction like that usually indicates that her body was taking advantage of the cleanse to actually do what she wanted: CLEANSE. All that vomiting usually comes from the liver detoxifying, dumping toxins that it has been storing, into the digestive tract where they can be eliminated. That reaction is usually the worst when people go suddenly from a Standard American diet high in animal products, fats, caffeine, sugar, alcohol, etc onto a cleansing program of any sort. It's much, much easier on the body to go into a cleansing program gradually. Start cleaning up the lifestyle in steps... reducing the intake of toxins gradually, allowing the body to clean out slowly. Depending on how bad her dietary habits are, it might take her as much as a year or two to prepare herself to do a Master Cleanse without such a dramatic reaction. Your way of doing a yearly raw vegan lifestyle is an example of such a step that can lead to a more comfortable Master Cleanse. Doing it after you have lived on the vegan raw diet for a few weeks, you might find a fasting cleanse much easier. Ultimately, it's easier on the body when we move towards eating a healthy diet more of the time... which keeps our internal environment cleaner... which makes periodic cleansing less necessary. :-) Deborah I tried it a few weeks ago and let me just say....NEVER AGAIN!!!! My mom tried it first and threw up for two days. So I tried it and literally could not leave the bathroom. I know a lot of people have great results with it, but I was not one of them. I will gladly stick to my yearly raw vegan detox. Shannon . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
