Bad Time to do Master Cleanse?

Date: July 16, 2007 11:55PM Hi there
I am due to fly back to the UK for 10 days this friday (20th). I have been oo-ing and ahh-ing and hum-ing and ha-ing over the whole raw food thing for months now since I first learnt about its existence back in January. Finaly, I feel ready to give it a go. Nothing drastic, but I want to at least try it and see how I feel about it. All being well, I would just continue with it. If not, I'll just reduce how raw I am and build it back up as I feel more comfortable. My question is this: I would love to start ASAP but start off with the Lemonade MC. Is it a good idea to be doing something which will shock my body (at least at first) if traveling a long distance (and dealing with all of the stressful baggage that comes with it) will happen bang smack in the middle of the MC? I would love ot start right away but is it wise to travel while on a detox plan? I would appreciate all of your opinions on this. Thanks. Re: Bad Time to do Master Cleanse?

Date: July 17, 2007 12:28AM i wouldnt do any fast, cleanse or detox without being able to have the time to rest and rest and JUST REST
so no i would definitely put this off ...untill you land where you will be for a bit the MC results in (and theres no better way to say it) copious amounts of butt pee .. in alot of people who do it so diareah , possible nauseau , harsh headaches .. among many other symtoms of the MC .. no id say no .. dont do it check out the master cleanse site boards [therawfoodsite.com] for the people posting the fun suffering their going through .. lol no its not somehting i would attempt on a travelling schedual personally i wouldnt recommend it all .. but im a harsh opponent too it ..it just doesnt make any sense too me ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Edited 2 time(s).

I would like to ask though why you are opposed to it. It's always good to have both sides of an argument before making a decision. And is there any alternatives you would recommend? Re: Bad Time to do Master Cleanse?

Date: July 17, 2007 12:38PM I did the MC while I was off and at home. This allowed the bathroom to be accessible, which was absolutely vital! The MC is good, but it can interrupt your schedule a bit and you don't get much of a warning when things are going to release! While I was cleansing, I didn't get any really bad detox and never really felt tired. I continued with my regular exercise schedule, walking 5 miles a day. My big detox came AFTER the MC. It kicked my butt and I was literally DOWN for about 3 weeks...no energy, pain in my joints, depression. It was awful. It's hard to say how the MC will affect you so it would be better to wait until you are in a stable location and routine to give it a whirl. But that doesn't mean you can't start eating incorporating more and more raw foods into your existing diet. Good luck. Re: Bad Time to do Master Cleanse?

Date: July 17, 2007 04:19PM why am i opposed to it..
it seems gimmicky to me well for one i cant see using huge amounts of maple syrup as your only source of nutrition being a good thing ..its high heated refined maple tree sap cayenne is an irritant to your stomach and intestines its a 10 day cleanse yet i see people doing it for 30 . .. 40 days .. to me this is abusing the concept ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
