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.

      @trents I absolutely understand the perspective of getting off completely from wheat,  but sometimes situation may occur that you won't have choice to eat other than wheat,  my son travels a lot, since they travel in team, it's not easy to go out and find him a gluten free every single time! I have seen, even in NJ I m struggling to find out gluten free stuff, in this country we don't get fresh food in stores, other day i saw gluten free bread so hard that will never feel to eat it! Once in while means once in a while, when there is no absolute option. Here all goes by book, there is no enough scientific research done yet on eating gluten with celiac,  everyone has there own narrative,  only it being said don't eat wheat, but Noone has come up with the experience. And moreover my sons diagnosis is yet to define, whether he has celiac or NCGS. last time his endoscopy came negative hence doctor did not bother to tell us. I hope this time it will be the same case. We are figuring out why his billirubin is high, may be that could be the reason his igg iga test is high, will get check on all and come to the conclusion. My son and us is absolutely fine not eating gluten, but one can't guarantee that every time they will get the gluten free food other than home. I also don't trust under the table of "gluten free products" have see people still have same iga igg count even after following the diet. This is all learnings, will keep him under observation and go through the regular testing to find out how his body reacts to what.  I may sound like a fool, but medical is scam in US, hence i would consult doctors in India. 14 years ago they have announced i had a breast cancer, which was not, since then I don't trust medical system here.

      I've been to Italy recently for a wedding and it was excellent. I made my own gluten-free sandwiches/pannini to take on the flights.  Spain is good and you can get good gluten-free breads in the supermarkets there. The UK and Ireland are very good also. Australia would be good since Coeliac Disease is fairly common there ...1 in 70 as opposed to 1 in 100 in other countries. You have to advocate for yourself in restaurants when eating out. I've read about several Coeliacs being cross contaminated from preordered gluten-free meals on airlines. Personally, I wouldn't trust a gluten-free meal on an airline especially long haul. Try the hashtag celiactravel on tiktok and instagram. Loads of Coeliacs posting about their experiences with plenty travel tips. The Atly app has a list of gluten-free friendly restaurants worldwide.
