Master Cleanse

So I'm thinking I need to detox. I have been shoving too much crappy food and booze in my system and think it would be a good thing to flush out the system. So here are my questions.

Has anyone tried it?

Why did you do it?

What was it like for you?

How do you think it did for you?

Is it worth it?

Is it actually something that will help me?

AND MOST IMORTANTLY did you loose weight and then gain it back? I'm an actor and in a show and my weight CAN NOT fluctuate!!!! I understudy and can't gain or loose A POUND because then costumes will not fit me and I'm screwed...to put it nicely?

Thanks all!

I wouldn't use this or any other cleansing product. They can be dangerous for folks that have a leaky gut, which many of us have. The body will 'cleanse' itself if you just lay off the junk and give it good wholesome food and lots of water. These products are not only a waste of money but dangerous for many.

I agree. Eat nothing but pure whole plain foods, lots of water and stay away from anything artificial. Its nornally the diet I follow and feel amazing. As soon as i put junk in my mouth I feel crappy, big time.

I concur with the others--I would go the slower but safer route with lots of spring water and fresh organic foods and juices. Cut out the alcohol and sugar for now to really give yourself a jump start.

Especially with you being in a show and having to 1) not change size and 2) not be sick and miss days. Those of us with Celiac or sensitive digestive systems might have a real problem tolerating a cleanse. I know I would.

This is what I thought as well. I have not been regular for a week now. I was eating very well and then the holidays came...it's not horrid food but it's not my "regular" food and my body does NOT like it when i change things up....

Thank you all for your help and I will NOT be cleaning myself (well I will be showering and brushing my teeth but you get what I mean! :) ) and will just go back to eating normal stuff like home made soups and salads and more vegies!

Does anyone have any good recipes for crock potting? It is crock potting season afterall!

Recipes... now you are in my territory.

Brown a small rump roast in a bit of olive oil.

Put it in the crock pot along with small Irish potatoes

quartered carrots

quartered onions

small chunks of sweet potato

1 cup gluten-free beef broth (Swanson's is good)

Cook on low about 8 hours.

Thicken juice for gravy by mixing a little corn starch with water and gently boiling until thick.

Add salt and pepper as desired after cooking.

This usually lasts husband and me for 2 dinners and an office lunch.

      celiac disease and braces

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      My only proof

      Years ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came...

      By Anne G · Posted

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By HAUS · Posted

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By marion wheaton · Posted

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
