1st Timer,
Hopefully by now you have had a BM. This cleanse would be ineffective if you weren't having any movement of the old impacted fecal matter that the cayenne is eating away. After drinking the tea I have atleast 2 or more release sessions. If you are not yet having any then perhaps drink more H2o & up the tea dose.
Now as for my diet I lean toward eating healthy whole food choices and I think that varies for each individual. If we consider how everything we eat breaks down to become our blood which in turn feeds our organs you would think our food choices would be simple.
My goal is to eat healthy because when I don't my body quickly let's me know. I have been a vegetarian mostly for the past 23 years. About 10 years ago I started having fish. Now I have the occasional Wild Salmon often for social reasons and sometimes because the protein content. I eat fruit and usually oatmeal for breakfast, lunch is usually salad with beans or nut pate, dinner homemade soups or steamed veggies and tempe. I try to avoid the SAD diet as often as possible although at times I do indulge.
My weakness is sweets, alcohol and dairy in the form of cheese & ice cream. I don't do any of these on a daily basis because of the obvious bodily reactions that follow. When I was a Vegan for 10 years in the 90's there weren't nearly the options socially. Now it's easier yet I don't like the rigid path it requires. It does feel amazing to eat this way and yet socially & mentally it challenges me more than it seems to be worth.
One of the books I appreciate on this subject is "Healing with Whole Foods" a great read indeed! I continue to return to the
Master-Cleanse diet because I notice the profound effects it has on me each time I return. It's like a fresh start at listening to our body versus eating according to our desires.
This is a whole other topic that I will post more about later.
Today I completed Day 6. The last 2 days were surprisingly tough. Maybe the heavy rains that have been passing through the NW and that my 2 friends that were doing the
Master-Cleanse with me broke it on Sat. after 4 full days with the intention to do 21 Days.
I will persevere and look to all of you here on this forum to be my shared rock of strength in accomplishing our goals!
Enjoy!
