Detox

[Matt Donahue]

Still going strong after about 30 days. I was wondering what detox feels like and/or how I will know if I am experiencing it. I am assuming that I have at some point, but didn't really know what to expect.  Just curious. Thanks all.

Detox is not the same from person to antoher and it takes time and you may not feel anything strong...ever...who knows? You're doing fabulously well and you body seems to adapt super well too.

The symptoms one experiences when withdrawing from certain food and drink (if you’ve ever experienced a hangover you’ll be familiar with the concept): coffee; alcohol; processed, chemically-laden, sugary, fatty foods, etc.  Symptoms vary from person-to-person both in type and severity and seem to drag on forever in some people.  They include: migraine; skin eruptions; general aches and pains; tiredness; mood-swings, you name it.  Occasionally I’ll embark on a 10-day raw liquid diet: juice, smoothies, soup and I usually experience a faint sore throat or a mild headache for a couple of days.

Are you following Amethyst’s “the girl next raw” videos of her 100-day juice cleanse?  She often mentions various detox symptoms that crop up.
