Hi everyone, ... I joined just to tell you all about something amazing that I discovered. This is my 5th time on the MC and I’m on day 6. I’ve never had problems with the salt water flush but for the last two days I can’t keep it down. It will stay down for over an hour with no movements. When I try adding another cup of salt water, I start violently vomiting everything up, including the first cup. ... ... Today I decided to relax and detox with a hot bath. I didn’t have epsom salts so I used my sea salt that I use for the SWF. I added about one cup of sea salt and one cup of baking soda. After ab ...

I just finished a 5 day master cleanse. Instead of doing the SWF in the morning, I did psyllium powder and bentonite shakes for three of the five days. I’m super backed up and need some advice how to get this stuff out. I tried jogging yesterday and drinking loads of hot water but nothing has helped. I had a small BM just now but it was tiny in diameter like there is an obstruction in my intestines. I know the psyllium has not come out yet and am getting scared. What should I do? [End]

In the event you are doing the lemonade diet to lose weight as a top goal, I would add more lemon and less maple syrup to each drink. I usually put 1 tbsp of maple syrup in each glass, and drink about 12 per day. This averages around 1 pound of weight loss a day for me.

I’d like to say that you should be having at least 6 glasses of the lemonade concoction daily but preferably 8 to 12... your body may be holding on to calories because you are not getting adequate caloric intake. Secondly, take into account how much water you are drinking on the lemonade diet excluding the lemon beverage. Your body may be retaining water. You should have as much pure water as you feel needed to quench thirst while on the lemonade diet.

Your first day after the cleanse should start with orange juice. By the end of the day, if you`re in a hurry to get back to food, you could drink vegetable soup broth.

I am on day 13! My longest was 22 days..shooting for 30..how are you making out? Only detox symptoms break out around my nose, pain on bridge of my nose, ear, gland pain but those are subsiding. Except for my nose pain. Never had that before and I had done over 100 cleanses. [End]

Break out is definitely good sign, but I’m not so sure about the pain around the bridge of your nose. Maybe it’s a sign you should call it quits. Usually 10-14 days is optimal for the Master Cleanse. [End]

Hey Becky, I just finished 30 days of cleansing (20 on MC and 10 on a water fast). It went really well! I’m back to my normal diet and it’s such a pleasure to hear and feel my digestion working as it should. Prior to the cleanse, I was on meds for both migraines and acid reflux, and now almost a week after breaking my fast, I haven’t had any need to go back to my meds. I’m hopeful that w/continued healthy eating, I can be rid of the meds forever (I took them for 14 and 9 years - definitely not a good thing for my liver, no doubt). I’d love to hear how your fast went. Take care! [End]

Hi. I believe all of the things that have been suggested to you so far are excellent natural methods of decreasing calcium deposits. However, as good as they are, they are best at prevention rather than remedy. Serrapeptase and Nattokinase are ideal, but do not work directly on calcium. If I were in your situation I would seriously look at Intravenous EDTA chelation therapy. Nothing is as effective for cleaning out clogged arteries and returning good circulation to all of the organs of the body. The only problem is that it is very pricey, but if the ...

Serrapeptase and Nattokinase. Serrapeptase dissolves the plaque and calcium, and Nattokinase keeps the blood thin. Works great. [End]

First of all DRINK WATER!!! Pure water will fill you up and allow you to eliminate toxins through urine,bowel movements and sweat. Try reducing the number of drinks as you progress through the cleanse. However since you are a big person a couple of extra drinks won’t hurt you, just don’t overdo it...and drink more water. [End]

I’d say that depends on what your ultimate goal is. Is weight loss a huge factor in the reason you are doing this? In this case, how many pounds would you like to lose in how short a timeframe? I would usually drink 12+ glasses when cleansing with the lemonade diet, but I wasn’t obsessing too much about weight loss. Still, I lost approximately 1 pound a day. You can also add less syrup to the concoction in the event you’d like to resume the number of glasses you consume each day and keep the calorie count low. ... [End]

I also just finished a fast that concluded with a 10 day water fast. I think that SWF is fine on the water fast. I wouldn’t switch back and forth between a water fast and juice fast. The fasting process goes through progressive stages, and you would be confusing your system by periodically introducing a source of sugar (the juice). I’d advise starting with the juice fast, and then when you feel ready, switch to the water fast. Once you’re on the water fast, stay there to allow your digestive system to rest and healing begin. The first 2 to 3 days will be difficulty, because your body ...

Two possibilities: ... ... a. Salt water is a natural antibiotic so you could have killed off vital bowel flora try some kefir ... ... b.
