..Hi Forumfolk :-),
Well, I said I would post and here is my report:
The 5 Lemons I had were Conventionally grown, not Organic, so I washed 'em and cut them in half. Then I juiced them all the way down to the skin with an electric Citrus juicer (About $6.USD in Brandsmart). This gave me about 500ml (About 16 oz) of undiluted Lemon juice.
I started out by drinking about 8
oz of distilled water, then chugged down the Lemon juice in several sets of 5 fairly big swallows at a time, resting a few seconds between sets- I wanted to be sure I wouldn't barf it back.
About half way through the Lemon juice, I drank another eight
ounces of plain distilled water. At that point I added more distilled water to the remaining Lemon juice and chugged the rest of it down.
After the whole thing I drank another eight
ounces of distilled water. I did all this about 9:18PM, IIRC.
I was fine.
A few hours later I had 8
oz. of Organic Yogurt just to put something else into my digestive system, then awhile later I went to bed.
This morning and today all day I have felt more energetic than I have in a long time. I had not realized it before, but I must have been short of breath too, because all day today I have felt the difference and a greater freedom in my breathing. My thoughts have also been "clearer", lol..
My physical pain level is lower overall. I have more flexibility and more agility and speed in my movements. I want this crunchy stuff in my joints and the 'accumulation' I can feel in my Lymph system to dissolve.
I have not been blowing my nose nor hawking and spitting up a storm (Which I half expected to do), however intestinal clearout (BM) this AM was effortless and phenomenal, if that's a topic for conversation :-).
The final verdict from me: This is a good thing to do, I'm going to do more of it, I have 5 or 6 Lemons set aside for tonight, and when I get that little intuitive impulse to 'go for it', I intend to do this with 10.
However, in the meantime, I'll stay with 5 or 6 tonight and see what happens tomorrow :-).
I'll probably do 5 or 6 a couple more times before going to 10, just to make sure.
So the end result of all this is, I have had *nothing* that I would call a bad reaction or a "too-heavy" detox. Nothing.
Thank you to Trapper and to everyone else who posted in response for your kind support :-).
Good Health to All of Us :-),
