Has anyone tried any body cleansing stuff? Juices or something from GNC. Been interested in it and would like to hear other people's opinions.

    I got recommended an 7 day cleans from GNC and I got it. Then I read all the steps you have to do, heeellllll noooooo. pills in the morning, powders throughout the day, no food at all during the week and then having to use the sponge they gave you to wipe off your esophagus. Yuck!!!!

    I kid, I kid. I did get one from them and I havent tried it, but there are several steps a day for the 7 days and you have to watch your diet even extra specail for that time. No red mead was one of them. Maybe one day Ill actually take the stuff.

    Don't waste your money.
    Eat a well balanced diet, get regular sleep, regular intense exercise.
    Stay away from anything that has "clense" or "detox" as part of its title or marketing spiel.
    If you still want to part with your money, make a donation to UNHCR or your favourite charity.
    kind regards,

    Ben

    from everything that I read, and this is a real post now, water is your best friend. Drink water, system will flush.

    I have a shower at least once a day, otherwise my skin gets unhappy. Right now I'm using this Dove body cleansing stuff. It smells really good!

    I added a pinch of epsom salt to my water bottle because I needed the magnesium. I had the equivalent of a pre-surgery cleansing about 10 hours later. :grumble:
