I hope you guys are starting to see the benefits of the total cleanse, your urine should be light yellow and much clearer then before; you should not be having much of any bowel movements. And your likely feeling a lot lighter-and you should be, you’ve removed a lot of waste and toxins and your liver is crying for joy. Hopefully you have kept up with your water intake of 4-6 liters a day and your keeping steady with the juices, it’s almost over, and if you have taken wheatgrass at all during the total cleanse you should be noticing the wheatgrass benefits to your overall lighter feeling as well. Now I personally detox every so often although I have no set pattern it’s just generally when I’m feeling regularly lethargic and generally unhealthy.
When you have reached the end of the third day and you’re feeling oh so hungry I want you to resist temptation and figure you can snack a little early, please don’t you need another full night of rest on an empty but cleansed body. I know it can be tempting as I’ve gone for over a week with some of my fasts.
Now once you have awoken and you’re starting on day 4 you can eat solid food again yes, I know you want to do a dance in celebration, it’s perfectly OK. But please resist the urge to gorge and eat fatty and rich foods, your body has not eaten anything for 3 and half days and you will do harm to yourself and also ruin the total cleanse and all your hard work if you do this. For breakfast you should have a whole grain bagel or a small serving of organic whole grain oatmeal or cereal (no fatty milk) along with a slice of fruit preferably melon or banana for the potassium. For lunch you should have a salad with organic vinaigrette based dressings (please check ingredients, avoid the typical corn syrup “natural flavors” phony dressings out there.) you can also have a fruit salad as well either for lunch or as a snack so you can continue to enjoy the benefits of eating healthy.
Consume nuts at some point in the day peanuts or almonds (small handfuls, that’s it) for protein. For dinner keep it light please your body needs to slowly adapt to eating again. My recommendation would to have some small amount of WHOLE GRAIN pasta with real organic tomato sauce or some fish lightly flavored with lemon and garlic so you can get your healthy fats. You need to eat reasonably the following days if you intend to get the most out of your juice fast but eventually your body does get invaded with toxins again even if your diet is perfect so it’s needed every once in awhile. And remember always- ALWAYS drink plenty of water no matter what, 2-4 liters a day for women and 4-6 for men. In following articles I’ll detail eating plans and general tips and advice for food and products that will benefit you in your plan to have a clean body and healthy life.
