Worth the effort

I echo R. Deal's review sentiments and have a few things to add: 1. Do the entire program with a partner at home! If your spouse or s.o. is eating pizza and Cheetos while you're eating raw veggies and drinking sprouted barley water, it's going to be hard. 2. It can be expensive. When I did the 21 day program, I spent over $400 on the list of things to get just to get started. However, that was eating for two replacing the normal food budget in addition to not eating out. Think big picture. 3. The first few days while my body was exorcising the toxins, I was a real grump and had a constant headache. Once I made it past that hurdle, I felt great. Once I finished the program, I felt amazing. 4. Don't use this as a weight loss method. One of the lamest reviews on this book, from hungrylady or whatever her name was, I believe was way off base. This is a cleansing program as well as a way to learn what foods do to your body and how you can make improvements in diet after the program is over. 5. Use the whole 21 day program if you have the time and are not traveling. Slow down, be methodical, be thoughtful and it will be a great experience. I also recommend doing two colon-blows at your local colonic house. Once in the first week to help with the toxin evacuation and once at the end of the program. Talk about feeling cleansed.

Sixth Year in a Row

My wife and I have done this cleanse for five years now and will be soon starting for the sixth year. We do it in Jan/Feb every year as a way to recouperate from the holidays and kick-off the year feeling great. As others mention in their reviews, after only 21 days, I feel completely different, lighter (a by product of the cleanse is that you can lose significant weight - a lot of it is water weight which your body usually retains so it can "flush" out the toxins that comes from eating commerically packaged food so a portion of the weight loss comes from the fact that as your body sheds the water when all you eat are organic foods, drink filtered water and no garbage - alcohol, refined sugar, packaged foods, etc.), your skin truly does glow, more energy, and an all-around feeling of well-being. About 20 co-workers have incorporated this into their lives and many friends have also done it simply by seeing the effect it has on me (my wife and I don't really evangalize it among our friends/family). This is one of the only times I've talked the cleanse diet up in public. Yes it's a bit time consuming as you make most of the food from scratch but that's the whole point. For three weeks, you hit the pause button on your normal intake of food, and shift your daily consumption routines and get really aware and focused on what you put into your body. Really convienent food tends not to be very good for... which shouldn't be news to anybody. Those who are lazy and have no will power will not enjoy or complete this relatively short but highly effective regime.

Complicated

This was the first detox book I have read. It involves a lot of planning & preparing. What I gained from the book: rediscovered taking baths, understanding how my colon should properly function ( & how my protruding stomach was due to a bloated dysfunctional colon), some wonderful liquid concoctions & that my menstrual cycle is necessary for cleansing & how to help it along. I saved the activities for those weekends or nights when I didn't have responsibilities to deal with & my boyfriend in the house. They served as a nice treat. The most visible improvement was my skin. About more than a year ago I started getting really bad acne again, since about 6 years ago. The Rejuvalac drink seemed to clear it up. In fact I stopped using it & the spots (which I believe were due to some bacterial imbalance) came back. I then started to drink it again & it's been about 3 months & still clear. You need to hold your nose when you drink it but it doesn't have a bad taste. By the second week I unfortunately gave up. I work full time, go to school and the plan is just too complicated and time consuming for me right now. Its been about 4 months since I started it & I still try to do some of things suggested in the book though. I have gone back to some of my bad habits though. Unlike one review, and i've reread the book a couple of times, I don't remember the author claiming that her food combining principles are the reason that will help one lose weight. She only claimed that eating certain foods together leaves gases in your stomach, which makes one's stomach protrude. And she only claimed, as a by the way benefit, that one would 'may' lose some weight while following this. The program is time consuming & somewhat expensive. The book does say that doing the entire program is somewhat impossible but the author wanted to give enough so that the individual readers can tailor/omit things. I live in hippie town San Francisco so finding the ingredients at my local organic, non-meat, bulk food, co-op health food store was easy enough (though time consuming & expensive). I can only assume it would be hard trying to find all of it if I didn't live in this diverse city though. I gave the book 4 stars for the wealth of information the book provides. I give myself 1 star for not following thru. But I plan to revisit the book once (if) I get it back from my friend. Once I finish school this next year I plan to see if I can do the entire program all the way through.

Fun and pampering approach to holistic treatments

I am in the first week of this program and think it is excellent. It can be time-consuming, but so is anything worthwhile - this is truly beneficial. I just have to plan things out carefully, but have little difficulty executing. One of the more expensive parts is the purchase of the essential oils. My recommendation: buy them at different times (ahead of time) rather than all at once - they'll keep. My one complaint: I get the feeling the author thinks we all live in southern California. Unfortunately, both the weather and some of the items on the grocery list may present challenges. But again, this program is worth the effort and expense!

A very well outlined plan for detoxifying

This book is full of great tips for eliminating bodily toxins- and it's all easy to do. I've noticed such a positive difference in the changes I've made to my diet.
