Detox

Question: Detox?????? Ok well I still have some time to fit into my bikini for this summer. I've been working out at the gym about 3-4 days a week, and it seems like I'm missing something. I need a good diet plan! I was reading something on Oprah's website and she is going for a Detox diet. I thought I'd give it a try! I'm asking you guys for advice cause I've never, "dieted" before and man do I need to start. I'm 5'8 and 170lbs, and for me thats over weight. I had my daughter 3 years ago, and I haven't been able to loose the weight. So I wanted to try this detox diet. I love fruits, vegetables, and I also thought about skipping meat products, and going for fish. What do you think? Please give me opinion, and any detox information that you might know about. Thanks!

Answer: i think that sounds like a great idea! it is also very healthy if you stick to the plan and dont go overboard. As long as you have a certain protein factor in your diet it is okay to skip meats. I think i saw the detox lady on her show, i thought about it too! tell me how it goes!!

Question: What is a good detox for cleaning your system? Just wondering what types of detox can be recommended for cleaning out your body of toxins. A detox that prepares you for a new diet or even weight loss?

Answer: i recommend certain types of organic teas without any sugar. there are teas for fasting and detox which do the trick. They usually contain dandelion and dont taste the best.

Question: What detox system works the best for cleansing your body of marijuana? My parents are making me take a drug test before I get my car back. Until then I am unable to leave the house. I want to buy a detox kit, but it has to be somewhat cheap and I have to be able to buy it at a store. Do they even really work? Whats the best kind and where do I get it?

Answer: Heres a few things to keep in mind - as far as I know, you can only buy detox kits online. Think about it, do you think the corner store is going to carry "hey, you took illegal drugs, heres a kit to pass the drug test!"... yeah, I dont think so either. If you do buy a kit, be prepared for it to cost you anywhere from $15 for urine detox to $50 to up to a couple of hundred dollars for detox kits that you buy online. And.. from what I know, no they dont really work. Theres no definite testing that shows that detox kits work, and most require you to drink tons of water with them - which in itself is shown to help remove traces from your system. My advice - hang onto your money. These things are scams for desperate people who are willing to try anything. Dont play into their trap. Also if youre getting a hair analysis test, you are for lack of better terminology, screwed. Traces will remain in your hair follicles for 6 months or more, and nothings going to detox it out.

Question: How dose detox work for alcoholics in a hospital? I drink too much and cannot stop right now to get the never up to go to AA.How does detox work?

Answer: IN the ER and on standard hospital floors we have a scale used to tell what level of detox a patient is going through and what medication and amount is needed to help. The CIWA scale measures a variety of indicators such as nausea/vomiting (including frequency and severity), pulse, blood pressure, tactile disturbances (pins and needles feelings), tremor severity, visual and auditory disturbances, sweating, anxiety, agitation, light sensitivity, headache, level of orientation/disorientation, etc. These can be observed by the nurse and/or reported by the patient. Based on these assessment, the patient is given a score. That score indicates what and how much medication is needed for the patient and how soon the patient needs to be reassessed, depending on if the score is rising, falling or remaining constant. The generalized idea is to control the symptoms of withdrawl from the start, while they are manageable before the patient experience severe symptoms of withdrawl that can possible lead to seizures, suffering, pain and even death.

Question: How well do detox products made for passing drug tests work? I have smoked marijuana roughly everyday for a couple months. I'm going to have a drug test in about two weeks and am looking at some detox products on the web. I have heard anecdotal stories that people have used these products and still tested dirty. So i'd like to know if any actually work to make you test clean, and if so what is the best one? Thanks.

Answer: Dont listen to dumbass Laredo... he doesnt know wat hes talkin bout... detox works.. a gift from god for daily smokers.. i personally havnt had to use them.. but my buddies use it all the time... they smoke even the day b4 the test... just go to your nearest head shop (hippie store).. and ask them for detox... explain to them your situation and they'll direct you to the right product. ( the head shop i go to are open to discussions like that... idk how urs will be)

Question: How can I detox my body after recently quitting smoking? I just quit smoking a couple of days ago and want to detox my body to feel better. Any suggestion?

Answer: Wow....wtg! I know how hard that is as I did the same thing over 5 years ago but hey...this is about you! Stay with it and remember, you don't have to stop.....just stop starting! You body is going to go through some serious detoxing all on it's own so don't rush it but things you can do on your own are: -drink lots of lemon water -take vitamin C -start a good multivitamin (not that drug store crap) -exercise -sweat....be it a hot tub, sauna, anything that makes you sweat Those things alone are a great start. From there as you progress you can add many other great natural products that will help you to detox but be very careful not to rush it as you can actually create a detox crisis.....meaning, your body is trying to get rid of toxins faster than it's capable of and it can cause incredible stress on your liver, kidneys and lymphatic system so easy does it!

Question: I know orovo detox is supposed to clean you out. How long till I stop urinating 20 times a day? I am constantly thirsty and I use the bathroom all of the time on my weight loss pill orovo detox. What is happening, and is it supposed to be happening?

Answer: Youre body is cleaning itself out, which is why you need to use the bathroom so much. For the first 3 days for me I also went to the bathroom in one form or another several more times per day. But it worked for me. I lost 7 lbs in the first week, and kept 5 of it off. (the other was water weight) But make sure you dont get dehydrated. Drink one gallon of water a day. Good luck, and enjoy

Question: How do I detox my body to restart my health to its default level so i can start building it up again?

Answer: I've been reading some stuff from this guy Jon Barron (www.jonbarron.org), anyway, he's got great info on some great detox's. The more I read from him and other places, the more I agree with what he says...anyway, juice fasts are great...this guy recommends drinking the healthiest (not bottled or canned) juice you can find, drinking 8 oz. every hour your awake for 3-7 days. I wouldn't just drink water, it will screw your metabolism up. Also, this guy talks about a colon and then later a gaul blatter/liver detox if you want to spend the money. Your body will heal quickly, so eat well and do some investigating about the best thing for YOU!

Question: How to pay for detox from perscription drugs? My mom is addicted to Norco and Xanax. She desperately wants to get off, but all these detox programs in our area cost thousands of dollars we don't have. She is currently living off of SSI and I am a full time college student. Is there some way we could do this cheaply or for free? Are there any charities out there that do this kind of thing for people? She's been addicted for over five years and her health is starting to deteriorate as a result. She's tried cold turkey, as well as every relevant phone number in the book (including local churches). It seems like we've exhausted every possible option we know of. Any suggestions? I live in northern California, San Fransisco Bay Area

Answer: There are programs available that are free. You did not mention the state you live. I had a family member who was addicted to prescription drugs and the detox (2 week stay) was free. She was receiving little income before her treatment,,so I'm not sure if low-income was a factor.

Question: What is a good detox diet that i should try without major health risks? I've looked into the lemon detox and it can apparently make you feel run down and gain wait after it is complete. I can deal with only drinking liquid i can manage fasting. Also i am bad with sticking to a diet unless it tells you what to eat and when, like a good guideline roster. Thanks I dont really care if they are a scam thats not the question i asked is it?

Answer: Try an all-natural diet. Limit the bad fats and sugars. Going on a fast or "detox" diet isn't going to do your body much good.

I need some good advice on how to go about this safely ( i don't need to lose weight so no need for advice for that).

Answer: You can detox your body with excercise or by eating veggies or fruits by 60% of toxins of your body, what about those which are non soluble and do not get out with sweat (excercise & purified water), urine or stool (fruits & veggies)? you need something which detects toxins, pull them out from blood, cells, organs and remove them completely out from body, then regenerate body organs and improves your immune system to fight back harmfull diseases. i would suggest you to study about "Ganoderma Lucidium", its a mushroom which has minimum 200 medicinal values and works what i have told above, it comes in powder/tabs forms and can be taken with or without medical prescription and / or with any kind of regular medicine (if u r taking), its 100% natural way to detoxify your body with better health and immune system.

Question: What is the best detox to help jump start diet? Im going to start a low carb diet and was wondering why kind of detox type thing would really help get things going? Suggestions anyone?

Answer: Hi There, Many people detox to lose weight (hence the many varieties of starvation detox diets) or use it in order to continue with unhealthy and over-indulgent lifestyles! The dangers come in when people chose unsafe detox methods without considering the harmful side-effects, such as colonic irrigation, or liquid-diets that rob the body of essential nutrients. It is therefore important to explore detox options and choose one that gently assists the body, without causing any harm during the process. It is also not advisable to use detoxing as a quick fix weight-loss plan as this promotes “yo-yo” dieting that has been linked with weight-gain. There are many herbal ingredients that may aid in a natural detoxification of the body. Dandelion and Fennel are just two herbs that have been used throughout history to cleanse and aid body detoxification, rejuvenate liver functioning, and kick-start the body back to life! Pelargonium reniforme is another ingredient that also works on promoting optimal liver functioning and supporting the body's natural ability to break down and eliminate fat for a natural detoxification. One such natural remedy is http://www.healthherbsandnutrition.com/products/detoxdrops.htm which has gained considerable popularity due to its zero side effects, support realistic and healthy weight management programs, and its supportive function in maintaining liver health and well-being. Check it out and see if it helps. It seems, it generally does. Good Luck!
