Re: Medications and Colon Cleansing

Hi Poster.child71,

With the conditions that you have described I would start out by drinking 4 ounces of Black Cherry juice (no sugar added) twice a day for a week or two. Black Cherry juice contains malic acid and will help neutralize uric acid.

A general rule of thumb is to take your prescription medication at least 2 hours before or after taking supplements of any kind to minimize the risk of a drug interaction. I don't know what medications you are on so I can't comment on possible interactions and suggest you talk to your physician about this.

If you decide to continue with your cleanse you should continue drinking the Black Cherry juice throughout. It may help to clear the kidneys and help you manage the pain.

Make sure to eat good fats like salmon, flaxseed, and avocado. I would also supplement with a green "superfood" containing Spirulina, Kelp, Dulse, and Chlorella. Green "superfoods" or "supergreens" are available on-line and in retail health food stores. I would take double the suggested amount. You also want to boost your immune system with a supplement containing Pau d' Arco.

Please keep me advised of your condition.

Namaste
