Date: January 19, 2007 01:42PM Hi there!
I am making a gradual transition to RAW, I have Crohns disease and have read some books which claim the raw diet will cure my body. I'm a vegetarian and have chnaged by diet to raw for breakfast up to 12. I have heard about a major detox when going raw that makes you feel ill and give syou bad breath. I dont think i can handle that at the moment, i just started a new job as well so i dont want bad breath lol. Is it still beneficial to make gradual changes? Siddha Re: Scared to detox

Eat heavier nuts, avocadoes and veggies to (or healthier processed transitional foods) to slow your detox.....while light exercise, fasting, fruits, juicing and sunlight will speed up your detox. YOU should be in control of these things!  No worries, eh? What do you think?

Date: January 19, 2007 06:20PM I agree. Just go slow and listen to your body. And I do not know what it is like to have Crohns disease, but wouldn't going through detox be worth it if you didn't have to suffer from Crohns disease anymroe? Re: Scared to detox

If you are currently experiencing the symptoms of Crohns, you are already in major detox. Going raw will only feel better than before, as the foods are not irritating the digestive system. An excellent book to read on healing Crohn's is David Klein's "Self Healing Colitis and Crohn's". You can also check out his Colitis & Crohn's website. Re: Scared to detox

Thanks for your replys, yeah i guess having Crohns i'm already detoxing fast. I have the Dave Klien book, im just not ready to go 100% raw yet. I have started having nut milks as well which are great and Im doing a Dr Sulcze 5 day bowel clense. Take care Siddha Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/20/2007 09:44PM by Siddha.
