    You could try the natural apple detox. Google it. I think you just eat apples & drink water all day for a day, & eat a light dinner.
    I bought & tried the iaso detox tea. It has it's side affects, upset stomach, stomach hurting, feeling sick. So i am not going to continue it.

    Have you even read this thread? I have a feeling the answer is 'no'...

    I don't know if I'm looking forward to the next couple of weeks for *kitten* and giggles, or if I'm scared for my sanity. Of course, the two may go hand in hand, but I've only been here since Sept so this could be interesting.

    It's a bit of both actually! :wink: But as long as one person hears the truth it's all worth it! I'm not even going to ask what eating apples and drinking water has to do with a detox. It'll make you poop sure, but so will lots of foods that you get to eat more of throughout the day. Apples and water... :#

    Years ago, when my wife and I bought our current house, it was right about when the cherries ripened. Had a very large popcorn bowl of them.

    Oh I had a cleanse all right. Couldn't be far from the bathroom for 2 days.

    Now we freeze them and I eat them year-round. Not as good as fresh off the tree, but also don't have the cleanse issue anymore.

    the cherry cleanse i like it. am sure that will sell if you bottle it

    Love this quote " Like much of what happens under the umbrella of so-called alternative medicine, a successful marketing slogan is more important than science or evidence."

    If you're not familiar with it, the Taco Cleanse is a taco cookbook that uses the cleanse as a tongue-in-cheek marketing gimmick. The cookbook actually looks really fun to me. I'm glad you brought it up because I keep forgetting to look for a copy!

    No meat in the recipes. What kind of taco doesn't have meat?

    But but but my second buttcheek neighbor said that cleansing is good for the body... :'(

    (So is glutamine, apparently... and yes I made research on the stuff. Not conclusive.)

    I do regular cleanses. As in : I don't need to buy the stuff to have a regular cleanse. :s IBS FTW!
    And bumpy bumpy? Bumpy bumpy.

    Would you consider the Moon diet as a form of cleanse? My mother got me on the moon diet bandwagon a while back, and although I find the whole "moon power" thing silly and misinformed, I have found it refreshing (after getting used to it) to have one liquid day a week. Though I have begun to wonder whether it actually has any cleansing benefits to the body.

    Moon diet: Having only liquids one day a week on the date of the full moon, new moon, first quarter, and last quarter, in order to take advantage of the moon's power to get you to gain or lose weight more rapidly on those dates.

    This is going straight in "worst weight loss myths".

    Yep. @Tacklewasher is going to love this one!
