Cleansing

[Mom2boys]

I wanted to share with you guys about some cleansing that I have been doing. I was very skeptical when I first started this, but I am feeling so good lately that I'm going to keep going with all of them. This is a little synopsis of what I have done so far.

Liver cleanse- I posted it on here recently. It's one night of cleansing and I passed several gall stones and a lot of bile doing this. I felt GREAT the next day.

Parasite cleanse- This is cloves, wormwood, and black walnut hull. It cost me around $20 to purchase everything to do this cleanse and as much as I don't want to admit it, I am getting results. I leave it at that. I have read that 90% of the population has parasites. I am one of them and I am diligently working to destroy them.

Anyway, two days ago, I began feeling pressure in my kidneys and burning when urinating. I mentioned it to one of my friends who is doing the cleansing also. She is doing the kidney cleanse already. The kidney cleanse is a tea made of several boiled roots and parsley. She had some of the tea frozen in her freezer and brought me some. I took it skeptically just knowing that I was going to be headed out to the doctor for an antibiotic. All that I can say is WOW! My kidney pressure is gone after only two days and I felt great after the first dose. Not only am I going to do this cleanse, but I am going to keep a frozen supply of this tea for any future infections that I might get. The roots to make the tea are around $30 but it is definitely enough to share with another person.

The last cleanse is a bowel cleanse. I have not done this yet, but I have friends that are doing it right now and it's working great for them.

If anyone is interested in cleansing, I would be happy to share more. My energy is increasing and I am feeling wonderful. My skin is clear and it's just all good!

I have always been skeptical of cleanses but it sounds like you're getting great results! I would be interested to hear more about it, whether it's on the board or through personal message.

Thanks!

These cleanses are from a book called The Cure For All Diseases and the author does not sell anything other than the book.

The parasite cleanse is just cloves, black walnut and wormwood, so that is very simple. I can give you the schedule if your interested in doing it. It last 18 days and is very reasonable.

The bowel cleanse is digestive enzymes, cascara sagrada, fennel and turmeric . This is a five day cleanse.

I'm interested it them...but have been putting off even looking into them because I'm nursing. I fully intend on doing another gall bladder/liver cleanse here in the next few weeks or so, but my clease is so short...less than 24 hours that I'm not too concerned about it.

But the parasite and bowel cleanse...how safe is that for a nursing momma? The thing is I KNOW that we have all been exposed to pin worms and while we don't have any symptoms per se...the % of folk who have something and don't know it are astronomical, as you said.

Where can I get the book? And yes, please post, I am interested.

Stack,
You can read a lot of the book regarding the different cleanses online. Hulda Clark is the same lady that came up with the Gall Bladder/liver cleanse. Just like with every other book you have to take what you want and leave the rest. She believes that ALL disease comes from parasites.

There is also a lot of controversy about her because her clinic was shut down. I am just glad that I saw the cleanses work before I read the negatives.


I'm not sure about a mom that is nursing. I would say that you should wait because the cascara sagrada is a laxative and I would think that some of the herbs would cross into your milk. I will look them up tomorrow when the kids go back to school.

From what I've read, nursing moms should not do any type of cleanse/detox. Any toxins that are stored in your body will be released through your breastmilk as well as the other modes, i.e, sweat, bowels, etc.

Thanks Carmen. That makes sense.

UGH!!! Well phooey.

I was hoping that a cleanse would help me with some of these tired issues. I'm only 7 1/2 weeks postpartum...but she's sleeping JUST fine...I feel great first thing in the morning...it's the 2 pm thing...and other than fatigue I don't have any symptoms of low blood sugar that I was having while pg...just general "I could nap" feelings. I know it's not much and not worth risking her health over...I just want my energy back, y'know?

ETA: Oh and I read the customer comments on that book on Amazon so I know a bit about the problems with the author. I've had a great experience with a gall bladder cleanse, so they aren't going to scare me off that easy.

I sometimes feel like the weirdest person in the world. I don't agree with most conventional medical treatment and so don't trust those people that say "I'm a doctor so I'm an expert and can tell you XYZ is true", but on the other hand the natural stuff can be SO anecdotal that especially now when just ANYBODY can post things, it's hard for me to completely trust that either. I just keep on keeping on and go as slowly and carefully as I can...but man oh man I really think my life would be easier if I just trusted a little more....I don't know that I'd be healthier...but as they say Ignorance is bliss.

oh look 2:46, I must nap.
