I have been drinking 3 cups a morning for the past 15 yrs(and I'm only 31!). I am very serious about this Master-Cleanse but am quite scared about the caffeine headaches that will certainly happen---that they might even trigger a migraine. Should I .....
1)Do the Master-Cleanse the right way and deal with the consequences not matter how hellish they may be
2)Do the Master-Cleanse but for the first 3 days have coffee (but in lessening amounts---1 cup,1/2 cup,1/4 cup)
3)Do MC the right way BUT take Excedrin for the first couple of days
I should note that I have a family(4 kids!) so I need to be there for them. I AM serious about doing this however and plan to go AT LEAST 10 days, more than likely 2 weeks. This is for detox/cleansing AND for weight loss(I'm 30 lb. overweight and got there in a very bad way).
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! :)Advertisement

This is a reply to # 231,418Hey Anna,
I had only been drinking 1 cup of coffee a day for about a year and I want to tell you my caffeine withdrawals were hellish. For me this was when I was feeling the worst on the whole cleanse (10 days). I really dont think any of your suggestions are for the best
1)Do the Master-Cleanse the right way and deal with the consequences not matter how hellish they may be --- This is a bad option but the only one really available to you.
The Master-Cleanse is not designed for you to have any thing else other than what Mr Borroughs included in his book including coffee and pills. Its a Cleanse. You may need to read the instructions again.
My advice to you would be to not start the Master-Cleanse tomorrow. Ween yourself off the coffee for a week or so or just stop the coffee, let your body go through the withdrawals and then do the cleanse.
You are about to embark on something special, something that will make you feel fantastic, but to get the most out of it make sure you are prepared both mentally and physically

MoreThis is a reply to # 231,418I have to agree with housey.
Go off the coffee before you start the cleanse, and take the asprin as needed. You'll get headache's at the begining of the cleanse and to add coffee withdrawl to that would be harmful to the will power.
I've had to stop the coffie before due to kidney problems, and it's no picnic in itself.
Good luck!

Caffeine headaches really are terrible (I broke a 20 year caffeine habit on my first MC, cold turkey) but PLEASE don't do the Master-Cleanse and drink coffee. You're just defeating the purpose and the caffeine will be even more poisonous to your body if you drink it while cleansing. Either drink less coffee prior to the cleanse or suffer through it.
That said, during my first MC, I had such a bad headache that I did take one or two aspirin one day. It was either that or go off the MC, and I decided on the former. I know I didn't get as much cleansing as I would have, but I still learned from the experience. The thing is, I hadn't PLANNED on taking the aspirin, but felt I had to do it later. Know what I mean? If you plan to take aspirin or drink coffee, you're sort of setting yourself up for failure because undoubtedly you'll do it, whereas if you tell yourself you WON'T take anything, you may surprise yourself.

MoreThis is a reply to # 231,436I tried to do the cleanse a year ago and had horrible results because I didn't get off of coffee first. The withdrawals coupled with the cleanse were not fun at all, and I caved at day 3. I had also refused to do the salt water flush which absolutely helps remove toxins from your body.
I am finishing day 1 of my new and improved cleanse (one year after the debacle I called my first cleanse). I took all of last week to wean myself off of a lifetime habit of coffee. It wasn't pretty, it wasn't absolutely horrible, but caffeine withdrawals can give you miserable headaches, queasiness, flu-like symptoms, achey muscles, mild depression. I had them all at one time or another.
Get off the coffee before you cleanse. It will be so much easier for you. I feel great today, tons of energy, euphoric attitude. I wouldn't feel this way if I hadn't prepared. Let us know what you decide!!!

The best way of weaning yourself off of coffee is with teeccino. Teeccino is the best coffee substitute beverage on the planet. It comes in several yummy flavors that include chocolate mint, almond amaretto, hazelnut, vanilla nut, and regular. Best thing is that you can order refill bags from their website. The smaller cans of teeccino are found in whole foods stores nationwide. Teeccino recommends substituting have of your cup of coffee with teeccino for a week or so. After that you should be able to drink all teeccino, which is completely caffeine-free.
Cheers,
Mark

This is a reply to # 231,418I really want to thank everyone for their input! I'm planning on toughing it out and only resorting to pills IF I can't bear the headache pain.
Thanks again!
