The Master Cleanse

[latteda]

I consulted today with the nurse/nutritionist that clued me in on gluten intolerances years ago and she suggested that I do the Master Cleanse. Has anyone ever tried it? Did you get good results?

I know it's been a few months, but I thought I'd reply anyway

I did the master cleanse with my husband when I was first diagnosed with celiac. It was great! It's natural, not harsh or harmful to your system, and it's a great way to start going gluten-free. My doctor even recomended it.

Word of caution, though. Don't go buy some "master cleanse kit" or purchase any newly published books based on the original. Go buy the little yellow book entitled "The Master Cleanser" and follow the directions in that book. Everyone else seems to be trying to make a quick buck off the idea.

Do use the forum on the link you posted, though. It's very helpful while your on the cleanse!

Before buying into any detox diet, including Master Cleanse, consider doing a little research. You'll find a lot of information that speaks to how these cleanses are scams.

"Detoxing" really doesn't do anything healthy for the body...eating a healthy, balanced diet is what a body really needs.

Cleanses are not something many here would reccommend and can be dangerous for us. I wouldn't risk it, If you want to detox your system do it with whole unprocessed foods. Which coincidentally is what a celiac should start out with anyway when they first go gluten free.
