    So I have been eating clean for about a week now and the past thee days, I feel like I'm fighting something. I have sore throat, stuffy nose, the works. This happens EVERY time I eat healthy!! I'm rarely sick when my diet is total crap, but when I start healthy, I always get sick with something!!! WHY????!!? Isn't healthy eating supposed to make you feel better??? So frustrating!! I don't want to give up again, but I don't want to be sick either. Can anyone shed light on what the hell is going on!?!???? :/

    If you are eating with a northern window open then you're facing Smithers. Nothing good comes out of Smithers. Close the northern window and open a western window. Allow the ocean air to improve your breathing and the ocean will open your sinuses. You could always open your diary. . . .I mean. . .so we have perspective instead of guessing blind.



    Poor Smithers. What's wrong with him?

    Your body is adjusting. Give it time. If you're still sick in a week then get checked out.
    I get a similar thing if I fall off the wagon and have to restart my diet plan. Generally lasts a 4-8 days.

    Correlation is not causation.

    Try viruses and bacteria. You haven't been on your new diet long enough for it to be causing you problems.

    You could try a detox with juice. The one I've done is one third unsweetended cranberry juice and two thirds unsweetened orange juice. You know it's working if you get a headache. You can just do it for seven days, then stop.

    No. That's ridiculous.
