Hello everyone

I have been reading this forum for a couple of weeks and appreciate the wealth of information.

I've been feeling very run down for months, very tired in the mornings (even when getting over 8hrs a night)sometimes tired during the day and definitely in the evening. It was getting me down as I have a lot I want to do and don't have the energy to do it. Also I have suffered for years with persistent skin problems on my face and neck which I desperately want to clear up. A couple of years ago I did an Arise and Shine 5 day cleanse with colonics. It was OK but not as spectacular results as I was expecting. I eat lots of veggies, not enough fruit, too much meat, excessively too much confectionary (I love chocolate!). Don't exercise much or get much fresh air as I'm in the house, car or office most of the time. I know what to do - it's just the doing!!

Anyway, I decided to start again to see if I can really get my health on to a better footing so that I can accomplish my life goals. I have been using Miracle 2000 vitamin supplement for a few months. This helped stop the migraines I was getting before my period. Reduced my meat eating and trying to reduce sweets.
Started taking AIM Barley Greens & red beet powder about a month ago. For the first week I had more energy but then the effect dimished. I found Dr Schulze info while searching the web and then this forum. I ordered Superfood last week from Tophat.

For the first 2 or 3 days I used the 2 tbs dose. I wasn't feeling any effects except for having green pee! (which I was used to with Miracle 2000). I upped it to 2 tbs twice a day from last Thursday. On Friday I got the Water book from the library and so started increasing my water intake. Sunday I woke up feeling groggy and then a migraine took hold. I spent most of the day in bed. I figured it was detox effects. I also noticed that I had slow BMs. I ordered IF 1 & 2 on Monday as I figured that Superfood was causing waste to increase and I needed to do the cleanse. In the meantime, last night, I took some Epsom Salts . This helped release the stuff and I immediately felt better. But today I have a slight migraine again. I noticed a lot of herbs coming out in my BMs yesterday. Also on Sunday and Monday some small round things floated in the toilet. I just assumed they were the usual stuff then reading in the forum about kidney stones I felt one and it was hard. I was quite surprised.

I'm interested to see what will happen when I start doing the IFs and hope that the cleanse will give me renewed energy and with that energy I'll gain the momentum I need to continue making progress.

Bye for now.
Maria
