    Well, there's always backdoor.

    It's safe, natural, and at least enjoyable



    *OP, I seriously wouldn't suggest a cleanse.....our bodies don't need it

    :flowerforyou:

    Hi honey!!! :smooched:


    Lentil soup or Taco Bell work wonders.

    Popeye's spicy fried chicken with a side of Frank's red hot sauce always seems to do the trick for me.

    French vanilla creamer that has been left on the counter for a bit too long. The great thing about this cleanse - the creamer still tastes the same.

    This is the more painful route of cleansing. :(

    The author describes how horrible a cleanse made her feel, she was basically at the mercy of her bowels the whole time and she gained the weight she had lost back. You don't need a cleanse.

    Sugar free gummy bears by Haribo. Seriously, look at the reviews on Amazon. Just one small handful needed. :drinker:

    The best thing I think you can do is try to eat healthy nutritious foods and drink enough water:

    Breakfast:
    lemon water
    green smoothie (Mine is 1 cup water, 2 cups baby spinach and baby kale or other greens, 1/2 banana, 1/3 cup blueberries, I also add 1/3 cup fage yogurt or 1 tbl peanutbutter for protein-I don't like protein powders, a few mint leaves, cilantro leaves, a tiny bit of ginger)
    2 boiled eggs with salt, pepper, paprika, and a little extra virgin olive oil

    Snack:
    1/4 cup raw unsalted almonds or other nuts

    Lunch:
    lean chicken or fish
    lots of veggies (especially green)

    Snack
    1 gala apple or other fruits/veggies

    Dinner
    lean chicken of fish
    lots of veggies (especially green)
    sweet potato

    LOTS of water, add lemon, cucumber, mint if you want

    After dinner "tea":
    1/4 lemon juice
    few mint leaves
    few cilantro leaves
    tiny bit of fresh ginger
    add boiling hot water, drink after a few minutes

    Some form of activity as often as possible every day. (cardio 3x, strength 3x, walking whenever possible)

    As you can see, this is not a "cleanse" in the starvation sense because I do not believe in that. It is however a gluten free, grain free, alcohol free, caffeine free plan. The carbs come from veggies, fruit, and sweet potatoes. Depending on how long you stick to it (try 2 weeks at least, 30 days ideally) you might want to add in rice (brown or basmati), regular potatoes, and medjool dates for any sweet cravings. Mix up the fruit and veggies and it can have tons of variety. A high quality multi-vitamin might be worth adding as well. The idea here is to work towards a healthier lifestyle, not do a "detox" for a short period of time.

    Go to:

    www.fatsickandnearlydead.com

    and look around.

    Not only good for weightloss but you are supposed to feel GREAT afterward. I've never tried it. I watched the documentary (which is also on netflix and youtube) and visit the site all the time though. I will try it some day.

    Sorry for all the sarcastic remarks. You just wanted some help/advise and all these trolls came out of the wood work.

    What is the most effective weight loss/ metabolism booster cleanse? I have a regimented diet and excerise plan but would like to try a cleanse out for the experience.

    what experience is it that youd like to have?

    stick with exercise and a caloric deficit.

    your organs are built-in cleansers!!

    People who advise against "cleansing" are not just trolls. There's no medically sound reason to douche (unless for some conditions where a doctor prescribes it - I'm no gyn) and no medically sound reason to "cleanse".

    We are self-cleansing animals. Eat right and you won't need to "cleanse" yourself. Some things you just don't need to mess with.

    Sauerkraut. Quantity irrelevant. I've tried THREE servings...I've even tried ONE serving...but the results are the same. Thoroughly cleansed.

    You're welcome.

    Enjoy your journey! :drinker:

    I came away from this thread learning this::laugh:
    I prefer Dove body wash and a poufy sponge thingy (not sure what you call those)

    I believe the term you are looking for is Loofa ;)


    Ahh. See, I thought this was a loofa:

    I didn't realize that this was also a loofa:

    But OP, either kind of loofa should still be effective for your cleansing.

    I was actually talking about the TROLLS who are posting about Taco Bell and their favorite body wash. Not the people who are offering their opinions on whether a cleanse is good for you or not. Sorry, I should have been more specific.

    I do a detox cleanse about once every couple months, usually for about 5 days at a time.

    Most of the time when you hear "detox / cleanse" it's some crazy fad, some expensive drinks, or laxatives that make you dehydrated.

    Cleanses & detoxes have different levels, and you can make them as strict or as lienent as you like, but basically it's usually something like:
    No processed foods or animals, normally raw or vegan -ish. Lots of water. No alcohol. No caffeine.
    Basically, you're just being strict on getting all the junk that you put in your body out &/or to jumpstart a weightloss or fitness regimine.
    People also usually focus on having certain foods that help with digestion or detox, like cayenne, lemon, garlic, apple cider vinegar, blueberries, etc.
    Like I said though, there are different levels, just find which one works for you that you think you can do. No need to go crazy. :)

    I get that, and I also get that you're trying to be helpful.
    So are the people who are posting the bodywash stuff and all...
    They are saying the same thing that I did, just in a more playful way.

    Psst, guess what? Sweating, urinating, and bowel movements are the way that the body removes toxinz.

    The thing is, there's really no such thing as a 'cleanse'.

    Your body breaks food down into its components which it stores or uses. What you ate to get those components really doesn't matter.
