SB, Thank you for your reply. I'm sure that both our symptoms were probably detox. However, I didn't mean that it gave me a sore throat. It is just that that is what my body does to get rid of anything. It forms mucus. A blood pressure medicine I am taking also does that to me. Maybe I can take it after I do a few more cleanses...liver, kidney, parasite, garlic, etc. I am hoping to be able to stop meds soon, after doing all of the above.
