Last year I did a detox. It took t\wo weeks. It involved a couple of different herbal pills. I had to drink 64 ounces a day of vegetable juice from my juicer. During the 3 day fast, I had to drink almost a gallon a day. Topped it off with colonics 3 days at the end. The results...I lost 15 pounds and flattened out my stomach. If you don't get the results you want doing what you are doing, I HIGHLY recommend colonics and juicing.

I've been contemplating a spring cleanse myself but have yet to pull the trigger. I've done 7-10 day stretches of raw food cleanses before with amazing results. The best results were achieved through fresh juices, fruits and leafy greens only with little to no nuts, seeds or dehydrated foods. The craving for cooked starts to come on strong after a solid week as you actually start feeling "too good" and need to reground yourself.

I did the Master Cleanse last year but only lasted a few days. I got terrible headaches. Good luck with the raw food cleanse. I'd like to try that one.

Forgot - juice of 1 lemon or lime as well.

I'm a raw vegan myself, and I would suggest for detox green vegetable juice is very helpful. When you're green inside, you're clean inside is how the saying goes. Also greens are the most alkalizing thing. Trying to do as much juices and smoothies during the time as you can will accelerate detox. There are many things that can be done to speed up or slow down detox depending on what you can handle.

I can relate in a way that I love to eat and coffee is usually the first consumable that greets me in the morning, lol. I wish you the best with this. Let us know how it turns out.
So how'd it go? Are you still eating raw foods?

Green Juice recipe (my own invention - I am a chef by trade) Quantities are approx: 500 ml water, 1 garlic clove, big handful of baby spinach, 1 avocado, 1 bell pepper - green, 2 sticks of celery, 1/2 teaspoon himalayan chrystal salt or sea salt, 1/4 cup EV olive oil or other good oil like walnut, 1/2 cucumber - remove bitter end. 3 spring onions. Roughly chop the big things before liquidizing. Tried it myself and it was amazing! Enjoy! Colin Proctor
