Hey everyone I wanted to try a cleanse because I feel gross and a friend of mine suggested a cleanse. She said she does them when she feels sluggish or uncomfortable and they help. She orders these expensive pills of some sort. I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for an over the counter not too overpriced?? Thank you!!!

Are you having trouble with your internal organs?
If not, they are "cleansing" you all day, every day. No need to do some fancy, expensive diet.0 -

My suggestion is to not do it.
My additional suggestion is to stop listening to your friend.

You might want to consider some type of liquid diet, instead of pills. There's tons of suggestions on the internet for liquid diets.0

i know what you mean. after a few days of heavy eating and drinking, i feel gross and sluggish myself. mostly it's because i haven't been drinking enough water and no fruits and vegtables.
so i try to get more water and fruits and vegtables in my system. that is as close to a cleanse as i do.
and with fruits, veggies, and water, trust me, things get friggen cleansed. i've been to the bathroom twice this morning.0 -

I think I shall go the fruit veggies and tons of water route.....and perhaps I shall not listen to certain friends haha! Thanks everyone0

Eat right, exercise, and drink plenty of water.0

Going the fruit and veggie route, there is a program called the whole30. Probably the closest you can get for a "cleanse" that involves eating all of your calories in real food. Basically cuts out processed foods and encourages fruits, veggies, lean meat, some nuts and good fats, etc.0

Take a shower with a lover - then you can be clean and dirty at the same time.0

I usually do a liquid juice cleanse after I've had a bad day and it helps me cleanse my system....usually spinach, cucumber, blueberries, kale, strawberries, apples, will do. To be honest, I throw in whatever fruits/veggies I have in the fridge, but the constants are always spinach and blueberries cos they have really good anti-oxidant qualities. Good luck, hun! xx0

I have a bad stomach so I get a lot of sluggish days with sore cramps and sickness. (my friend thinks it may be IBS as she has same symptoms).
When I have these days I know it's mainly my body telling me stop eating rubbish I need real food, vitamins and minerals. So I would eat lots of veg and drink water.
I suggest if you having a bad day have some greens. It does wonders! And it will flush out all the bad from your stomach too and you will feel happier unlike with junk food that makes you smile then later you get a belly ache or are grumpy!0 -

Hi,
I'd scope this out- I read all of his stuff and he's really knowledgeable:
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/05/23/Should-You-Detox-to-Get-Rid-of-Chemicals.aspx
Not sure if I'm allowed to put links on here so if it's removed just search "mercola detox to get rid of chemicals" and it will come up in the search as Should You Detox to Get Rid of Chemicals
I've never done one personally but I have done many of his suggestions lately on health tips and they've all been truly amazing!
Good Luck!0 -
2 tablespoons of castor oil. That'll clease the hell out of you.0

Yes, that's exactly what I am dealing with! I shall definitely just try to amp up the natural foods and water to help get my stomach back to normal. We had a night out with friends Saturday (bar, beer, bar food, late eating, etc) and I its been so long since I have done it that I have felt awful since. Getting back on track and my normal eating will hopefully get me back to feeling normal again.0
