Re: Newbie bowel cleanser - day 1
Lonnie,
That sounds pretty intense. Have you ever taken psyllium before ? That sounds like an awful lot of psyllium to be taking every 1 1/2 hrs. ? Your water intake sounds really low. You should be drinking half your body weight in
ounces everyday on a regular basis...and even more when doing a cleanse. Psyllium expands "a lot".
I don't understand putting the vitamin powder in the shake, as I understand it the psyllium and
Bentonite are just going to grab it, lock it up and shoot it out without it being absorbed. I would be curious to what others here think of this recipe.
Please understand that I am only sharing information I have gathered.
The psyllium powder I use also has hibiscus in it and I actually love the taste of it especially with apple juice.
I also like to take aloe vera and found a good "revised" recipe for the one they use here.
It is:
1/2 c. apple juice
1/2 c. pure water
1/4 c. aloe vera juice (it actually calls for 1/2 c. but I think that's to intense for me)
1 Tbsp.
Bentonite
1 teas. psyllium powder
to be taken twice daily. I will probably up that to 3 doses per day, maybe more. My body is tolerating this recipe very well !
Let us know how you're doing !!
