A headache on day two is quite normal.
Its just the rush of toxins moving around in the body at the outset of the cleanse.
Your doing everything perfect.
SWF, lots of water and lemonaide.
The SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) is important for getting the system cleaned out in the quickest fashion.
The headache phase will pass.
Wanting to eat, is something I experience during the first days of a cleanse.
Later in the cleanse, - not at all.
The desire is probably just more of habit.

A headache on Day 2 is usual. My headache lasted from Days 2 -4, and I even took medicine to try to stop them - no result. Taking medicine only burdens your body and won't do ANYTHING to get rid of a headache.

Often, headaches are worse if you're a coffee-drinker. You will notice the craving for coffee stops about the same time as the headache.

In the meantime, you could try taking a detox bath. Mix 1 cup each of Epsom Salts (magnesium sulphate) with 1 cup of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) as your tub is filling with hot water. Soak for 30 minutes, or as long as you can. When you get out, shower your body (starting with the arms and legs and then the trunk and head) with cool water to stop detoxing near the skin, so you don't get a rash. You'll remove lots of toxins through sweat, which might relieve or shorten your headache. Also, you might be low in magnesium. Your skin will absorb some of the ES.

He mentions taking a bath with Epsom Salts . This will help you detox during the Master-Cleanse without departing from the strict protocol, as the magnesium is absorbed through the skin rather than through digestion.

Good luck!
