Dear Caroline,
I have heard a lot about cleansing lately. I see all these cleansing kits in the health food store and wonder about them. I think a “fast” could be too harsh for me but what about a cleanse? It’s summer and there are so many fresh fruits and vegetables available. Can you point me the right direction?
Meredith E. Victoria Canada
Dear Saul
Summer is a great time to cleanse. We eat lighter foods at this time of year – salads and fish plus we tend to drink more water.
I believe that a cleanse can be a very important part of a person’s on-going wellness program. But be careful. Be sure your body is strong enough to handle a cleanse, be sure you have a skilled practitioner nearby who can assist you in cleansing properly and be sure you choose the right kind of cleanse.
Many people think that cleansing means fasting. These are very different programs.
In a clinical setting where I worked for many years, we would often see severely depleted people who thought they were doing themselves a good service by cleansing or fasting well beyond what their body was capable of handling. They arrived at our clinic, depleted and way out of balance.
My work with clients revolves around detoxification and fortification. In other words, removing toxic items from the body and feeding the body correctly so that it gains vitality and strength. Once the body is strong, a cleanse might be a useful addition to a wellness program.
If you do not suffer from hypoglycemia or low blood sugar then you could try a short vegetable juice cleanse: juicing with fresh vegetables two or three times a day with lots of water, hot vegetable broth three times a day along with a handful of sprouted almonds three times a day – just to give you a little protein. When juicing with vegetables keep carrot intake low – carrots though nutritious, are very sweet. You can add half an apple to your vegetable juice – but that’s all the fruit I would recommend. A fruit juice cleanse is often far too sweet for most people.
Some health professionals and health food stores offer prepared, powdered cleanses for their clients. This might be a more supportive route to choose. Some of these cleanses are actually meal replacements and are loaded with nutrients so the person feels satisfied and not depleted. Others are specifically related to heavy metal, parasite, liver or candida yeast detoxification. Recolonizing lower bowel flora with probiotics (acidophillus) is another important aspect of cleansing. These are kits and are usually herbal in nature.
Organs that need to be supported during a cleanse are liver: pancreas: gall bladder: colon: kidneys.
Unless a cleanse is monitored by a professional, there can be a number of concerns: possible constipation, low blood sugar, chills, mood swings and fatigue.
Never fast. Just drinking water for days on end can have serious deleterious effects on the body. Most people are not equipped to handle this kind of plan.
I suggest you take a week. Take some quality time for yourself. Remove caffeine, sugar, wheat/flour and dairy products from the diet. Pick up a herbal bowel detoxification kit from your health food store and follow the directions. Eat lightly from fresh vegetables, fruits, fish and sprouted nuts. Drink lots of water. In about 48 hours you will notice quite a change in the body – more vitality and mental clarity. This is how you are supposed to feel. After your cleanse is finished, introduce foods back into the diet one at a time and note the reaction. Like me, you will probably notice that you have less symptoms and reactions if you choose to eat protein, lots of vegetables and minimal grains on a daily basis. Cleansing can lead us to an important lifestyle change and the understanding of what the body wants: no toxins, no bad stuff and no poisons.
This is also a great time to cleanse your thoughts, cleanse your house and prepare for wonderful new things to come into your life.
