    I tried the Acai Berry cleanse....didn't work at all. I couldn't tell I'd done anything different. :frown:

    I did some research on them for a friend and found mixed results but a lot of people complaining about stomach problems with them.

    I saw the jillian michales ones, and I was curious so I looked up the ratings and the comments on it... turns out it makes you poop a lot! like 4-5 times a day. you lose 3-4 pounds and you gain it all back. I also read that it causes pain.

    a great detox i did that did work was five days of the following:

    no packaged or processed foods/drinks, salt, wheat products or dairy.

    you CAN eat:

    unprocessed meets (chicken, beef, fish, etc.), fruits, veggies, brewed teas or coffees, water, pure condiments (honey, oil & vinegar, pure spices), nuts, seeds, eggs and potatoes and rice in moderation.

    it will clean you out, you will lose 3-5 pounds in that five days, and you will feel fantastic at the end of it, ready to eat healthier and get your fitness goals going.
