    What are you expecting to happen in 3 days? My nephew sells this and I think it's just an herbal cleanse. Is that right? Nothing much is supposed to happen and it shouldn't change your bathroom habits. A cleanse is just supposed to help rid your system of built up toxins through urine and waste. A lot of people have success with Advocare but you have to work the product. Follow the instructions and diet as written. I personally refuse to pay the price for this stuff. The only thing I take is a multi-vitamin and have a protein shake a day. No other supplements or cleanses or anything. Hope you find success with it. Good luck.

    I don't know what is expected in 3 days that's why I'm looking for input from people who have done it. I've seen stories online about people saying that it did change there bathroom habits. I haven't experienced any diffrence but we shall see what happens i suppose. thanks...

    I did a 10 day herbal cleanse (not advocare) not too long ago and it didn't change my bathroom habits at all. I was surprised. I hope you get some more input on the subjet. I think I would be happy it's not changing my bathroom habits. lol

    PS - the only reason I did the above cleanse was because I had received a gift cert to a nutrition store and needed something to complete the balance. I don't normally do these things.

    Most cleanses take a few weeks to work. They filter the crap out of your liver, kidneys, gallbladder, etc., and this is a slow process. It needs to build up in your system and then have time to work. That's probably why you need to take it for 24 days.

    And don't listen when they tell you that you have fecal waste built up in your colon and that this will remove it. If this happened, you would die. Your colon is where you absorb most nutrients (along with the jejunum and duodenum), so if there was fecal waste built up in there it would have to be coating the areas that are designed to absorb these nutrients, causing you to die of malnutrition, anemia, or something similar. I have Crohn's Disease, and have had to have most of my colon removed due to surgery. Believe me, if this actually happened, I would have died a long time ago as I already have problems with nutrient absorption. And that's not me saying this, but my gastroenterologist.

    Thanks for the advice! It was just a bit discouraging when , you see all these other ppls stories about there experience's with it. I'm like well why is it working so well for them? But I guess at the end of 24days we will see if there is any diffrence. People swear they are losing up to 12lbs just from taking it. We shall SEE !

    Sorry to hear about your condition as well , have a great day !
