Just thought id give an endorsement for the drink. Went on and off for several months. The maximum i would take would be 2-3 days in a row and only 1 drink per day would get me back to shape. I would then forget the drink for several weeks as health is still relatively ok. Main concerns for me are sinuses, brain fog and lethargy.
After returning from a vacation trip, I noticed severe hair thinning and falling off maybe because of salty water in shower, i decided to start again and this this time i took it for a straight week with a lot of lime water and did the foot bath as well
For almost 2 weeks subsequent to that ,sinuses have never been clearer, brain fog totally lifted and energy levels back up and my hair strands are much stronger maybe due to the increased oxygen in my head...!

Do you mind posting links or the recipes for the exact drink you are using and the footbath? I did some searches on here but there are so many different versions and opinions on alkalizing and cleansing etc.
Here is the Moreless protocol that Evanluck lovingly put together for everyone.
The basic protocol as outlined in this forum is as follows:
Stop all eating habits that promote excess acidity
This includes eating:
any refined sugars (sugar, high fructose corn syrup etc.)
any refined starches (white bread, white rice, anything made with white flour)
any artificial chemicals (preservatives, artificial sweeteners etc.)
any protein or grains 4-6 hours before you go to sleep
80% of your diet should consist of top-quality, locally grown, seasonal fruits and vegetables with an emphasis on green leafy vegetables (cabbage, broccoli, kale, cauliflower, non-iceberg lettuce, spinach etc.). You can purchase a refractometer and start testing the BRIX (amount of complexed carbohydrates) level of the foods that you purchase. This will allow you to begin to pick better quality produce.
20% of your diet can be whole grains and high quality protein sources like cold-water wild caught fish (i.e. Alaskan salmon or sardines), high quality eggs, non-homogenized dairy.
Do a series of enemas to clean out your digestive system. The one moreless recommends is water with a small amount of Apple Cider Vinegar.
Following the enemas take some probiotics. First thing in the morning, drink a glass of water. Then take the probiotics (one with a high billion count 8+ and with both Bifidus Bacterium and Acidophilus) along with a glass of skim milk. [edit added on 11-09-07]
Buy some PH strips and start testing your saliva at set times during the day (first thing in the morning and approximately an hour after each meal) to get an idea of the relative quality of your foods and how your body reacts to different kinds of foods.
Drink plenty of clean water slowly throughout the day.
Supplement your diet with mineral rich foods:
Alkalyzing Drink: the juice of 1/4-1/2 of a lemon, 1-6 or more (start out slow) Tablespoons of Pickling Lime Water (1 Tablespoon of Pickling Lime diluted into 1 Gallon of Distilled Water), 1-3 Tablespoons of Blackstrap Molasses, 1 Tablespoon of high quality, cold water kelp
Sip this drink slowly throughout the day. You can start out with one drink per day and scale up slowly to as many as your body reacts positively to.
Take a pinch of Epsom Salt with each Meal.
Accelerate with Akalyzing Baths:
Take a hot bath (as hot as you can stand it) with the following ingredients:
2 Pounds of Epsom Salts
1 Pound of Baking Soda
1-2 Quarts of Hydrogen Peroxide (edit by refreshed: 3% Hydrogen peroxide)
Soak in the bath for as long as you can stand it (start out with shorter period of time like 15 mins. and slowly work up to longer periods of time).
Finish up with a cold shower.
If you are very sick you may not be able to take the baths initially. If not then you can reduce the ingredients and do a foot soak with the same ingredients in the same proportion.
Learn to choose a positive outlook on life and positive thoughts. Find things everyday that you can be grateful for. Spend time in prayer and meditation. Refuse to worry about things that you are unable to control or are unwilling to take action to change.
This is the general protocol. Each person is different so you need to learn to listen to your body and make adjustments within these principles to find what works best for your body.
Ask questions where you are unclear. There is lots of experience and wisdom on this forum.

Everything looks good, I've changed my diet recently and am
slowly getting a handle on a candida overgrowth. One thing I
noticed in the above is a recommendation on black strap molasses.
I'm curious to why that's suggested? I would assume that will
mess with bloodsugar as well as feed candida for anyone suffering.
Just seemed kind of backwards considering the rest of the protocol.
One more thing - I absolutely cannot stand kelp. I will never be
able to down it in a drink because of gag reflex. I'm assuming that
it's included in the drink just for added nutritional benefits and
has nothing to do with any kind of reaction in the drink itself
correct? I mean, I can just take it in supplement form correct...
even if I have to make my own capsules?
Take your kelp in capsule form that way you will not taste it but don't use tablets as they use too much filler. This is the way I take it with my drink and I still have good benefits. The main part of the reaction is with the lime water and lemon juice but all the ingredients are important for your body to be balanced.
Here is a post by Moreless to explain about Blackstrap molasses. Hope this helps you get started. :)
The body must have Natural sugars with enough complexed Carbon based Alkaline
Minerals to function properly and stay Healthy!
The sugars in blackstrap molasses are such as the body needs, because there are
more Alkaline Minerals in ratio to the sugars which are present in the
blackstrap molasses!
With Candida, the problem which may exist, is that the body is too Acidic and
one must learn to change the body from being too acidic , to becoming more
Alkaline with the needed supply of "ALL" of the needed Alkaline Minerals along
with the needed natural sugars which the digestive flora must have in order to
do their job successfully!!!!!!
In the beginning, when one has candida problems and one starts taking Blackstrap
molasses one may experience various changes in the body, of these may be the
increase of activity in the digestive system and else where in the body, because
the natural sugars and minerals may stimulate all Bacteria and Fungi, as they
both must have sugars to eat and live!
But "IF" you continue to supply your body with the needed Alkaline Minerals in
the needed amounts to overcome the body's excess Acidity along with natural
sugars such as is in the blackstrap molasses, then the Good digestive Flora may
start to overcome the Bad digestive Flora which is in the body and your body may
become "RID" of what is causing the Candida problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
