Hi All-
Has anyone tried the Specific Carbohydrate Diet? It’s similar to the traditional candida diet, but offers more specific instructions. The idea is that it starves out the ”bad” microbes in the small intestine and promotes healing. It’s designed for leaky gut, Crohn’s, Celiac, IBS, etc. There are also recipes and other resources on the site. It seems to be helping me; I’ve been on it for about 1.5 weeks (with one day cheating and eating some corn chips.) The combination of the diet, Primal Defense, and Candex seems to be leading me to improvement.

you can use both but mainly OJ ...remember you are breaking it so you need the OJ. And trust when I say it is important to break it properly.... I didn’t the first time around and paid for it with a lot of pain...
good luck! [End]

Wow thank you so much for the advice! I REALLy wanted to do the SWF but it makes me so sick I vomit and thats not good!
Ok I will start my cleanse on friday with tea two times a day!
Again I really appreciate your response!
have a good day. [End]

Yeah, when I added more than 2t salt it came right out the wrong way.
I can get the SWF w/ 2t down ok, it’s just not really doing much once there.
I feel like I’m carring around a small sea all day.
Thanks for your tips, tho’. [End]

I just can’t do it???!!! ,my body rejects it and I feel so sick for like 30 min afterwards and my body aches from throwing up 3 times :O(
Help.

good! yea I think the worst times for me when dieting or on a cleanse are when I am in a super market/around food/smell food/ or see it.
Which is hard to avoid.... but try your damnest!
lots of luck! [End]

I have done the cleanse once before.... I only lasted 4 days! But I am back wanting to do it again....
What is the conversion ration for making a large amount of lemonade? I want to make it fresh everyday and drink about 8 glasses.
does anyone know how to make it in a full days supply rather than measuring it all out in such small amounts?
Also this time around I really can’t get down that salt water mixture :( I try and try and almost up chuck each time....what can I do? Will it work as well?
thanks! [End]

well i went to the doctor and she basically said it was something she is seen before but they are dark....sometimes painful and not attractive. Puss does come out if squeezed but sometimes its even blood that come out.
they remind me of a cross between a cyst,black head,boil pimple... sometimes they are raised very high and it hurts to walk.
they are not in groin area....just between the upper inner thighs. they are rather hard and like i mentioned sometimes larger...
it is not a fatty tumor or skin growth. they are all over the inner thighs.
thank u for your help....

I have a knot the size of large marble just below my right knee cap. It is somewhat soft and very painful if I try to kneel on the knee. There is no knot on the other knee. Can you give me some idea what it could be? Thanks Ktmcgibbeny [End]

...........Ah, OK, I STILL haven’t gotten around to taking my measurements....Not sure if it is worth posting here, as I don’t see much activity at all! Gee, I hope this means that you have all lost all the weight you wanted/needed to on Atkkins and are now posting on some skinny people forum! LOL! [End]

Ummm I think its safe to say that you well being is more imortant than a cleanse. Its a hurricane that is coming. Thats a big deal. Go on the cleanse when things are a bit calmer. [End]

I did the cleanse for 6 days and I will tell you this much you need two days of Oj and broth chicken or veggie broth.
I broke the cleanse after drinking just oj for the whole day and I WAS SICK.
When I say sick I mean cramps,painful bm’s burning, not good not good at all. I would never do that again cause like I said yout stomach will hate you for it!
Give yourself two days of Oj and broth at least.

The first time I have ever done the Master Cleanse I was on my period. IT sucked!
I came so close to stopping many times.....hunger phangs,cramps.bloated,tired,run down. I would advise that someone wait til AFTER their period. It just makes it all the more harder thats all.
good luck [End]

Hi-
I will let you know this: I have noticed the cysts on my inner thighs have almost gone away completely since doing the Master Cleanse. Inoticed it after about 4-5 days I used to get painful cysts in that area and they are disappearing and no new ones either....strange but good :) [End]

I did the MC for 6days and I am still doing it on and off. I HATE HATE HATE the SWF. My best friend threw up too. I don’t think your alone in this. Everytime I do the SWF I fel like I am going to puke and sometimes a little does come up. NASSTTYYY.
But I have to admit as much as I do hate it and the feeling I feel in my stomach for up to an hour after....it does help flush you out a great deal!
Hope u feel better :o) [End]

Somer thanks for getting back to me :)
I just know the cleanse lemon mixture is good for u and It hought maybe incorperating that into my diet would be a good thing..?
It is healthy easy to make fresh and cheap lol
I just dropped a lot of weight since I ben on the cleanse...
I cheated once and ate and it killed me all that night and the next day I was soooo sick....so I was trying to think of a way to do this and be able to eat once in awhile. I totally understand I wouldn’t ge tthe benifits of a full cleanse cause I would be eatting..but was still wondering how it would be. [End]

It is my second day of MC and I am not sure if i can do the salt water flush anymore. I puked some of the mixture up this morning. Ugghh it is so gross. Does anyone know if you get the same results if you drink the lax tea morning and night?
Or if there is a better way to deal with this?
thanks.

Congrats! I am on my second day and I want to DIE.lol Well maybe not die but I don’t feel all that well today and I just started my monthly cycle so that doesn’t help. Your words give me strength! thank you for that. Why is it recommended to do a liver flush after the cleanse?
