Cleanse....Flush.....Fast

How many of you have done a cleanse aka detox, flush, or fast?  Did you tell yourself it's to rid your body of the built up toxins? Think about it, if your body had these deadly "toxins" you would have some serious side effects. You were born with organs that cleanse and extracts any harmful or foreign organisms from your body. Just look up liver function, kidney function, pancreas function, and gall bladder functions. I mean that is why we poop and pee pee. However, I most say if you just put down the JUNK and eat things grown out the ground or from a tree you'll be okay. 

The pushback will be "I did a cleanse and I feel so much lighter". Of clause you feel lighter, you haven't had solid food in 3-10 days. You've flushed all your junk and fast food out in the first 2-3 days. I think some people just like to feel like they've conquered a challenge. 

Going on too long of a cleanse can cause you to rebound by gaining unnecessary weight and unbalanced hormones that lead to grumpiness, agitation, easily agitated, extra hungry, and hormonal. Who wants that? Not I!
