Hi KewlCat! I'll be home tomorrow, so I'll be able to give you the posts on b&p's. If I were you I'd get the plain Psyllium Whole Husk (not powder)...and the liquid Bentonite from your health food store. If your bowels are moving at least once a day then you're ready to take the b&p's, but start slowly. You can definitely fast and do the b&p's.
If you're wondering about order...the perfect order would be Master-Cleanse & b&p's (if you're into adding them, of course!) ending with a 1 to 3 day whole organic Apple Fast (to help clear more of the nicotine out the nicotine in your system) and a liver flush!
I can't remember who is going to do that combination right now - maybe they'll chime in here!
