As time goes on I see more and more folks who may be caught up in the Flushing mania, thinking it is going to Solve all what ails them?
But, those who have followed this path seem to still be struggling with their Ails?
"WHY" may this be so?
What takes place when "WE" choose to do a Flush?
For a Flush to occur, the body must become more Acidic to Cause this action to happen !
Do not folks take time to consider what Epsom Salt(Magnesium Sulfate), which seems to be the Flush tool of choice, may do once it joins with water in the body?
The Sulfate may form Sulfuric Acid, which is a strong Acid, which then may seek Sodium to join with and pull into the Gut to cause the Flush to occur?
For the Sodium has an attraction for water, which is required to make the Flush work !
But, the Sulfuric Acid does not stop with just Sodium, for it may react against any Alkaline Minerals to also pull them out along with the Sodium?
So, after awhile one has pulled too many needed Alkaline Minerals from their bodys by the sheer process of Flushing and they are not re-supplying enough needed Alkaline Minerals back into their bodys, thus they continue to slide down hill to worse Sickness and Diseases !
Is this Sickness and Disease what "YOU" want?
Some times folks may need to learn to use some "Common Sense"?
Kinda like Flushing the Toliet to get rid of your waste, if you keep Flushing it the toliet may then run out of water and things may then just get worse?
Most folks problems may come about because they do something once and it may initially help them, so they think that if a little is good, then more must be Better, thus they may get caught in the Trap of Flushing Mania?
Is this "Your" problem?
"Common Sense" may help protect one from this "False" line of thinking?
As usual not everything may be as it may first seem to be !
Isn't it interesting how Fancy the names become for a Simple problem, which the "Experts" want to Sell the un-informed public some more products?
Take for example: Liver Flushing, Kidney Flushing, Bowel Flushing, Colon Flushing , Gallbladder Flushing and what ever other kinds of Flushing someone can think of !
And then we have a whole list of Cleanses to top this list off with !
And guess what, with each List the number of products to Sell you gets Bigger !
Do I smell "Profit" for the Sellers of these products?
If this was a Cash cow for the industry, they sure are milking it real good and in the mean time Gladly taking "Your" Hard earned Cash from "YOU" because of many folks Lack of understanding !
For "ALL" these problems may be narrowed down to one problem, called "Constipation", which may be Solved by learning to eat correctly !
Oh! But, But, this surely could not be True, for I have spent a Fortune on products trying to get Better and am still having to Flush?
Maybe it is time for those with enough Common Sense left in their heads to "Stop" falling for this Foolishness and learn to take Personal Responsibility for their own Health??????
For "ALL" of these problems are just a problem of "Constipation" !!!!!!!!!!!!
And if "WE" believe we are still in an outhouse with no water to Flush our waste down the drain and continue to not provide our bodys Daily with what it needs to Daily Flush, then "WE" may expect to be caught up in this Cult of "Flushing mania" !
Life can be Simple and enjoyable or we can make it Hard on ourself !
There is a Simple Solution: As I have suggested from the beginning for folks to learn to take a small pinch of Epsom Salt in water with each meal and or with the Alkalizing drink !
And I have nothing against a person getting a Roto-rooter job, if this is what they like, but there are Better ways to Live ones Life as may be understood by these Success Testimonials from folks who learned to make the needed changes in their Lives for the Better:
The Epsom Salt supplies the body with a powerful cost effective way to get extra Magnesium and sulfate in your body!
The Magnesium is needed by the Liver and the Kidneys , so that they may work properly to Detoxify the body of Toxins!
If you Liver and Kidneys do not get enough Magnesium to do their job, then the Liver and Kidneys may Decay and get Sick and Diseased!
The sulfate may be used in the body for many different reasons, and some of the reasons involve the regulation of the Protein in the body in a more usable form!
Also the sulfate may react with many of the Alkaline Minerals and produce extra Electrical Energy Released to power the body!
After doing 10 liver flushes and having my alkaline mineral reserve totally depleted, I am now struggling to rebuild my alkaline mineral reserve and overcome the state of acidosis that has resulted.
Please don't get me wrong, I did gain several benefits from doing liver flushes and I thinK that cleanses such as master cleanses are a good idea. However, I agree with invincible and others, to prevent any complications(severe depletion of existing mineral reserves) from doing cleanses and to get maximum benefit from them, you may want to first focus on building up your alkaline reserves to buffer the highly acidic state that the cleanse will likely result in due to the mass release of toxins some of which will recirculate in your blood for some time.
If your alkaline reserve is insufficient to buffer the excess acidity, you will likely suffer the same health problems that someone with excess acidity suffers. You may resolve some bodily imbalances only to create others. If I were you I would wait a good 3-6 months and focus of building a good alkaline mineral reserve, before plunging full force into any type of cleanse. Anything that you do to alkanize yourself while doing any time of cleanse will not likely work if your body has insufficient alkanizing minerals to begin with.
Also, like all things in life, I believe it is important to practice moderation when doing any type of cleanses as they are so hard on the body, otherwise they can have the opposite of the intended effect and may result in even a greater imbalance.
I also forgot to mention. As I am finding out, it is a heck of a lot harder rebuilding those alkaline mineral reserves after they are depleted than doing things to deplete them in the first place. This despite cutting out acidic foods, stress reduction, a more positive attitude, consumption of highly alkalizing foods, moreorless drinks, etc., If I could do things again, I would definitely have focused on building up by alkalizing mineral reserve before engaging in any cleanse.
Invincible is offering some excellent recommendations that are well worth seriously
considering and her blog is a real fountain of information.
Prior to liver flushes, the average PH of my Urine was 6.4 and the average PH of my Saliva was 6.8. After 10 liver flushes it has plumutted and just when it seems like it will stablilize, it drops again. The average for Urine is now 5.5 and saliva is 5.8.
When I got a live blood analyis done, I was told that the level of improvement in my blood profile was remarkable compared to what it was like the first time I got a live blood analysis done(prior to the liver flushes). However, there was also markers indicating a significant magnesium, potassium, magnese, iron(folic acid/folate), and maganese deficiency. Many of these are critical alkalizing minerals that help buffer excess acidity. And I don't think that the coinciding dramatic drop in my PH(I did not tell the blood analyst) is unrelated to the depletion of alkalizing minerals. I also did not have to tell the blood analyst of the dramatic drop in my PH. She told me that there the blood profile indicated serious PH imbalance issues.
The live blood analyst felt that I had stripped my body of alkalizing minerals by doing more than the 4 liver flushes that she recommended. I know that my diet is very high in these minerals so it was not my diet but likely the fact that the flushes depleted the minerals faster than they could be replaced. Also, I was flushing once a month and this still happened and there are people who do liver flushes weekly and biweekly(I cannot even begin to imagine the ramifications of such frequent flushing).
Again this is not a knock on liver flushing and given the overall improvement in my blood profile from doing liver flushes, there is no way that I would totally put liver flushes down. I was only suggesting that if I started with a good alkanizing base as measured by say a PH of 7-7.2 for urine and 7-7.2 for saliva, I may have gained just as great or better benefits without the alkalizing mineral deficiency and without having my PH go on a rollercoaster or tailspin.
Alternatively, perhaps doing liver flushes once every two months instead of every month could have prevented the depletion. And as I learned it is all the more important to respect the importance of moderation and balance when it comes to cleansing - more may not always be better. Also, I was not as sickly as most people are who decide to do liver flushes. These people likely already have a severly depleted alkanizing mineral base are probably seriously acidic to begin with. Doing liver flushes without addressing their highly acidic state first could prove a recipe for disaster.
