***Personal note: those of you who've known PlzChuckle for any length of time will recognize: eat organics, most of it raw.
Raw-foodism is a rage in the holistic movement. I'll be frank with y'all, I've had very few 100% raw days in 4 1/2 yrs. All most all of my days have been more raw food in a day than most Americans eat in a month!
Cooked food DOES slow detox. I've even learned to use cooked foods to slow my detox when it gets too intense. Had I been able to lay in bed for a few days, the detox part would be over now; but, I've done this while working and without missing days of work!
