Fruit cleanse?

Date: November 08, 2011 11:35PM My partner actually wants to do a week of just eating fruit the week after next. Is this a good idea? He wants to do it for internal 'cleansing'. Basically without any transition before or after, at least that is my impression of what he had in mind. Then going back to his regular habits. I don't fully understand it, I will have to clearify what he wants to do. Then I can decide if I want to do it also.
I would like some input as to what to expect, and if its a good idea. Or are there any unseen problems with with a week of fruit eating for someone that usually eats an omni diet, although a pretty healthy omni diet thats generally low fat. Hes more 'vegetarian', or rather less animal eating than the regular omni diet. Hes thin, and is very active, but prone to getting anemia. What does anyone think? Re: Fruit cleanse?

Date: November 09, 2011 03:12AM If someone who's cooked jumps into an all produce diet they will experience detox symptoms. Their level of toxicity will determine the intensity. It could be anything from mood swings to insomnia to vomiting to low-grade fever. I'd say read the section in Morse's book on detox and make sure that he gets plenty of calories. When I first detoxed I experienced symptoms within 3 days and it was not pretty. It took me about a month to start to emerge at the other end. Re: Fruit cleanse?

Date: November 09, 2011 03:31AM I agree with Tamukha and HeavenHands.
A week probably won't do much but get him into some heavy detoxing that he won't have enough days to complete. Re: Fruit cleanse?

Date: November 09, 2011 04:12PM Great ideas and comments everyone. Thank you. We have both been doing something very close to a dairy vegetarian diet. I suppose the next move is probably to go vegan with perhaps some cooked stuff? Before doing a fruit diet? I had gone completely raw and vegan a few years ago, basically without any transition, and after doing some intense'detox' I really freaked out. Waking up with sweats, a nightmare and a fever. I woke up crying. My partner discouraged me from doing anything more raw, as he thought it was a result of doing a 'strange diet', and missing nutrients or something like that. But now he wants to do a 'cleanse'. Weird. Re: Fruit cleanse?
