Has anyone done this? How did it make you feel... I bought and started this last night, so we will see what happens.

Thanks

    Isn't that the one she is being sued over because it contains a concoction of chemicals that could kill you?

    I bought it, and didn't like that there was barely any information at all inside the pamplets, so it sits here.. I haven't touched it.

    Nutritional Cleansing increases the health benefits you’ll receive from the ancient health practice of cleansing. The herbs, vitamins and minerals that aid cleansing do two things:

    - Accelerate the removal of impurities from the body.

    - Nourish the body with vital nutrients to rapidly revive health.

    A cleansed and revitalized body is stronger, resists illness better, is more efficient and performs at a higher level than one that is filled with impurities. Many people notice an ability to reach and maintain their ideal weight.

    Well, you have a natural built-in detoxer call your "liver"...it's free and if you take care of it, will do the job for a long time

    What people need is fiber if you want to "de-tox"....clean out your colon and prevent a load of diseases

    Lastly, all those supplements can interfere with medications; so, be careful if you take meds for any health conditions

    This is very true. I have a severe thyroid condition and all of them interfere with my synthroid mendication. Be very careful. Maybe try a natural fiber supplement first to cleanse and that may help boost your system toward your weightloss goal!

    Whatever!!! There is way too much controversy over this...eat right, exercise, cut down on red meat, don't eat out and cook your own food...your good to go!!!

    Save your money and put it toward a massage and detox that way

    Well that is about all the convincing I need. It was an impulse buy at Target last night. I guess I really don't need a detox... I get lots of fiber, lots of water, I get regular massages, and I eat clean as much as possible... oh and I do take care of my liver... So guess this is going to go in the garbage.

    Take it back to Target and get your money back...tell them your on meds that it will interfere with

    For all the liver detoxers out there...don't smoke, limit liquor, limit fatty foods and you should be GOOD!!! Your liver will love you....

    Again, if your liver function is normal...this is not a problem...instead of taking pills...walk , cut down on fossil fuels and car pollution...double benefits...the money you save on these supplements you could buy a bike

    I am not doubting that you believe in this product and it's success as part of your treatment. I feel that many people are mislead by ignorance and commercialism. People need to do their RESEARCH when using supplements. Anyway, keep up the fight against cancer.:flowerforyou:

    A friend of mine tried it and didn't like it at all. She didn't see the results that she was expecting, and she said it made her feel terrible.

    Also a foot bath ( or a Bath bath ) in Epsom Salt helps draw out impurities. no harmful side effects :D
    Milk Thistle supplement is good for your liver :wink:

    (Just stating my opinion)- I don't like the idea of any kind of diet supplements, period. But isn't it funny how JM claims to be the toughest trainer (she is in my book) but then promotoes this kind of stuff. It just doesn't make sense to me. I definitely agree with all of the other suggestions of natural cleansing and also as a Massage Therapist, I highly recommend getting regular massages and drinking plenty of water so it flushes everything out!

    Simple enough. She is paid to promote these kinds of things.
