You CAN recover radiant good health!

Glad you're getting started on a good cleanse! It's amazing how long we live without even thinking about cleaning out our filters... we just plug along trusting "doctors" to "take care" of our health! What they do is fix us after we've let ourselves go to the point of serious illness!

Heck, it only took me til I was 46 to see the writing on the wall! I know if I hadn't started then I would be looking at some real trouble in my poor abused colon as I sail into my 50s ... not to mention a hellish menopause! As it is, I am actually looking forward to aging.

I bet I mentioned didn't go back and read my post) that you should be flushing your liver as part of your cleansing process. Definitely go to the curezone Liver Flush Support Forum , as well as sensiblehealth.com. I have used her green apple protocol and love it. Also, be sure you're parasite free. There are lots of good natural cleanses.

As far as juice fasting, I frequently refer to Paavo Airola's little gem, How to Keep Slim, Healthy and Young with Juice Fasting, now out of print though you may be able to get hold of it. There are lots of books on the shelf, I'm sure! Go browse them and pick up a couple.

As a heavy duty colon cleanser I have benefited greatly from Renew Your Life, Improved Digestion and Detoxification by Brenda Watson, ND, CT (renewyourlife.com), an amazing eyeopening textbook on the subject filled with practical concepts.

I am a poster child for those who want to change the direction of their health. Whatever your goals, you absolutely CAN do it! That said, I never could have done it without the support of my amazing naturopath who helped me define my problems, goals and strategies for healing. She kept me on course for a long four years of industrial strength cleansing that resulted in a clean, pink colon!! The colon, the liver/gallbladder, kidneys -- everything got a good hosing and the changes in my health are many and miraculous. My eyesight has improved significantly (had to get a new prescription)... I have no more joint aches, headaches... my nightmarish periods are a distant memory... my "adult acne" disappeared permanently the day I flushed 30-40 prune sized stones from my liver/gallbladder... and on and on.

So don't expect instant miracles. Get on it and stay on it until you take out the trash you have packed in over the years... and let your body have a chance to present you with miracles. It won't disappoint!

Best to all,
