Detox diets

[tintin10]

Hi everyone,
Was wondering if anyone could recommend a good detox diet. I've been reading about a few like there's the Virgin Coconut Detox. Also there's the candida cleanse one. I'd be very curious to know has anyone had any success with these or maybe others. Like I know if you do three or five days of a detox your odour is not suddenly going to disappear but maybe it could help a little bit?

Hey tintin, sure give it a try anyway see how it works out. Do you have any other symptoms?

Hi Mary,
Thanks for your encouragement. Well I did test negative for tmau but i wasn't happy with the way it was done and strongly suspect it was a false negative. I do suffer from awful odours, including fish sometimes, that can be smelled from a long way away. No other real symptoms except I get a lot of cramping in my stomach, was tested positive for sibo. I'm always telling myself I'll go on a proper diet tomorrow but it never works out like that, a detox regieme hopefully might kick start things for me.
ANy experience of them yourself or like me are you just in the planning stage at the moment?

I did best on a simple herbal detox. Which was basically taking all these different herbs that cleanse out your system and being on a fruit/vege diet. I definitely had success with the detox. I could not smell myself at all, like I can smell myself now after going back to a bad diet. I think any detox would work really, as long as you stuck to the strict diet. And eliminating sugar/carbs/meat/dairy. I was on the detox for 7 days. And I could not smell anything...but it is a different story if anyone else smelt something....I have no idea.

I think you should give one a go. Just look at reviews first. I truely believe it speeds up the detox system. But it is very hard to stick to and keep going with a strict diet afterwards...:/

good luck!

Hey Molls,
Thansk a million for your reply. It was very interesting, I wonder with a lot of these extreme detoxs you hear about, are they really necessary? Like what you said about just eating fruit and veggies with herbal cleansers would probably do just as well.
There is one problem I think I'll have with this detox though. I have cut out dairy and red meat already so that won't be a problem, I've a very sweet tooth but I guess I could go without refined sugar for a little while. But this one day I did eat only non starchy vegetables, cutting out carbs like you suggested and at the end of the day I felt absolutley flattened, no energy whatsoever. And even the next day when Iwent back to a more normal diet I found it a big effort just to walk somewhere. Did you find on your detox you had absolutley no energy or after one or two days did your body adapt if you don't mind me asking?

no problem!

The first time I did the same detox my body was very low on energy. I was fine just doing the normal every day stuff. But when I went to my part time job which is just working in a kitchen - washing dishes, serving out dinner, always darting around the place basically. I was throwing up and feeling like I was going to collapse the whole time. So I had to get someone to come in and cover me. That was at the end of the 7 day detox program. I was low on energy the whole week, there was a lot of napping. e_e

But the second time I did the detox and I went to work, I was absolutely fine. I was also fine throughout the week. I did not feel sick at all. Maybe my body was in shock the first time? Maybe from suddenly not getting any junk food. Because I did not ease into the detox like you are supposed to. Whoops, my bad. P: But the second time I eased myself slowly into it.

I feel like the herbs might be giving your body a boost or some energy...I'm not too sure. But i think it's important to ease into the detox, so spend a few days cutting things out gradually.

Well I hope a detox works for you! I also have a real sweet tooth and craving for carbs, so it was tough. I'm not on any diet now though. Stilling doing the "I'll start it tomorrow." lol....sigh.

Thanks a lot for the info Molls,
I'd be quite similar to you. The few times I've tried to do a healthy diet usually I just plunge right into one without any real preparation for it beforehand. It's just too difficult for me then over the first few days.
That's great to hear you found the second week no problem, it will give me something to aim for.
They say for people with sibo it usually takes six months for a proper diet to fully work, cutting out all the sugars and stuff. Since I would find six days a chore I'm not too sure would i ever be able to last that long.
Still if i could do just two weeks and see how I am then that probably would help somewhat in reducing my odour. Thanks again for your great advice.

Detox diet is primarily thought of as a treatment for alcohol or medication dependancy.
Detox diet is a program of diet, herbs, and other methods of eliminating environmental and dietary poisons from the body.

There are many detox diets by which you can gain what you want to ..But you have to be very careful..It begins with what to stay away from. Numerous individuals don't understand that they are unexpectedly adding to their own nervousness. Just by maintaining a strategic distance from normal uneasiness errors will you have the capacity to adapt.
