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 flare years after diagnosis

      Unless gluten exposure is happening on a regular basis, it is doubtful that blood antibodies would show up elevated in testing. It takes time for them to build up to detectable levels.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      HI Nancy, In your first post, you said that you were diagnosed by biopsy and blood test - this is what I was referring to: the blood test is for antibodies that are made during active disease. After a period on a strictly gluten-free diet, the antibodies return to low level. It is a good way of checking for accidental exposure if symptoms persist. If...

      I'm not saying this is what you have, but your description reminds me of Morgellons, which are not very well understood. Here is a review from a reputable source. If it seems similar to your experience, you could raise this question with your Dr. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/morgellons-disease

      Hi Trent, no dairy. Other than good quality butter. I have been lactose free for years. No corn, sugar, even seasonings and spices. I don't eat out. I cook my own food.

After a period on a strictly gluten-free diet, the antibodies return to low level. It is a good way of checking for accidental exposure if symptoms persist. If you are reacting to foods that don't contain gluten, you may be reacting to something else. Alternatively, a condition called SIBO is common in people with coeliac disease, where there is an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine. This can be tested for with a simple breath test. The main treatment is with a course of antibiotic. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, are you consuming dairy? Not sure if dairy is part of the carnivore diet.
