Hiya Skyler!

Which juice fast would be best depends on your body type and issues. Do you know your Dosha? Blood type?

One of the ones I like is to drink only water, prune juice and apple juice for 1-2 days, then make a huge pot of veggie broth out of potato skins, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, celery, carrots, and drink that all the next day.

The 4th day is any kind of veggie juices and fruit juices you want.

Beet juice cleanses the liver - don't take more than 2 oz at a time or you might feel ill! :)

ginger is an excellent anti-inflammatory.

Citric juices help to get rid of mucous and arthritis, BUT are hard on the spleen and liver, so best mixed with water and something sweet, like The Master Cleanse lemonade mix that has maple syrup.

And as everyone has stated, for maximum benefits also do bowel cleansing and follow the fast with a Liver Flush or two. The Liver Flushes is what really takes down the bad Acne I get on my forehead after doing too much gourmet cooking! :)

Hi Skylar , how are you? I am not sure how long, or what protocols you have done so I just added some personal experiences that have helped me regain my health.
Clean your body first, get your circulation going, and then turn to juicing. The foundation starts with cleansing and nutritional improvement, then circulation.
First, you must clean the bowels, liver, and then fast for as long as you can (master cleans); try one week. After this, start your juicing . While you are juicing, you can add raw fruits and vegetables to your diet. You must exercise too: just enough to get your circulation and lymphatic system going. 20 minutes of jumping jacks, OR run in place for 20 minutes three times a week. Another great way to increase circulation is Cayenne pepper (Dr. Shulze).

To remake a healthy liver you have to provide a nutritious food program. You need to get the juicer going, take many tablespoons of Vital Nutrition Plus daily and eat fresh, live vegetables and fruit.

A dysfunctional bowel can reduce circulation to your sex organs which may prevent hormonal balance. The bowel surrounds the uterus, the ovaries are nearly attached to the bowel. If you have pounds of excess waste matter in your colon, it's expanded and pressing on the organs and veins. Also, you may reabsorb toxins again effecting hormone balance.

How does the liver effect hormone balance?
One of the biggest things needed to improve hormone balance is better circulation.
Most peoples blood is too thick with cholesterol and fat.
One of the major jobs the liver does when it is healthy is remove fat from the blood. When it is not so healthy, and the bowel ducts are stuck, and the gall bladder is filled with mucus, cholesterol or stones - then your circulation is very poor.
The liver thins the blood viscosity. If the blood is thick, you get a lot less blood supply to the areas in vital need. The liver also controls your energy level throughout the day by regulating the supply of glucose to feed your brain and keep your body awake.
The entire balance of hormones throughout the body is regulated by way of the bloodstream. It's the liver's job to clean out excess or old hormones from the blood as well as fat so that communication can occur more efficiently.
Liver Cleansing is second only to bowel cleansing for creating changes in people's health.
If your colon is in an irritable state, you need to see the link below; this will show you how to clean your liver.

Juicing and teas
Try to consume plenty of raw-food, juice It should be around a gallon of juices, teas and water per day.
1) Wheat grass juice: "Wheatgrass Juice cures Acne and even removes scars after it has been ingested for seven to eight months "
2) carrot juice: Beta carotene is non-toxic, it can be extremely useful in all types of skin disorders including severe acne, dry skin, eczema and psoriasis. Beta-carotene can also offer protection from skin cancer."
3)broccoli: B vitamins
4)Green tea: "Green tea catechins block the type 1 form of 5 alpha reductase enzyme. The type 1 isozyme is found mostly in sebaceous glands of Acne prone areas of the face".

Hi Skylar! Wow, only 1 every 2 to 3 days!!?? Definitely start with a bowel cleansing, you really need it and I can say with certainty that the MAIN reason you still have Acne is from toxins in your bloodstream. You said you are thin, do you have a little pot belly at all? I too am thin and I did loose weight since beginning all my cleanses. I'm staying pretty constant now at about 105. To answer your other questions, no the B&P shakes aren't that bad. They aren't the best I will admit but they are doable and you really do get used to them. I pretty much started seeing results right away, about a week or so but then again I did CleanseSmart prior to the B&P so that may have been why. Definitely start out slow because it can constipate you. When I first started CleanseSmart I was constipated for about 5 days. I was still having movements but they were small and thin and I really felt like crap. It all changed. Same with the B&P. I increased it to 3 doses and that really did me in so I went back to 2 and only did 2 doses for 7 weeks. I stopped the Bentonite only at 7 weeks because for one I wasn't seeing as much plaque and for two I was starting to get an "achy" feeling in my joints and muscle weakness. I figured it did it's job and I needed to replenish my vitamins and minerals. The achiness went away once I stopped. I did continue with the psyllium for a long time after that, then stopped, then used flax, then started again and now I'm here and there with it. My bowels have been acting up a bit lately and I needed to use a lax tea last night. I think it may have something to do with the MSM I've been taking. I'm in the process of working out a plan to attack Candida and it really has been a struggle. By the way you aren't on the pill are you? Or was on it? How about Antibiotics ever in your lifetime?
