Adding anything else to the MC

[pearlap73]

so i have read the various answers about p&b shakes and how you should keep it separate from the cleanse, because of the solid waste build up.

does bentonite on its own cause the same thing?? i have been taking it, and have been having only liquid BMs with some waste in them.

please advise.

I would stay away from the bentonite clay, personally. I am a "by the book, don't add anything" master cleanser. None of what I say is gospel, it's just the way I do the MC.

I have heard of cleanses that utilize the P&B shakes (like arise and shine), and I might try that one some time. But, I think taking the bentonite during the MC is counterproductive.

Just my two cents!

Hi all!!
I tried to post this in the SWF thread but don't see my post there.
I read on here you can use soy sauce with the SWF for taste. I want to try tomorrow morning but i'm unsure of this because it is my first time reading about it.
Don't know if it effects the cleansing process?
Don't know what brand i can use ?
Don't know how much i can use?

Has anyone else tried this??

Can anyone answer my questions??

no, no soy sauce!!! got to laugh a little at that..sorry

So I'm not cleansing anymore, and I've practically sworn off the SWF for my next cleanse (it did awful things to me) but was wondering anyway....can you add some cayenne? I think that would go a long way into making it "soup like."

hmmm no one's ever asked that but i'm pretty sure the answer is no.
you want the salt solution to flush thru your body. adding cayenne changes the solution and it probably won't flush.

the reason for the ratio of the SWF and water is so that is the same specific gravity as blood. Adding cayenne to it, would upset that I think, so that the salt may get aborbed and also the water, which is opposite of what the SWF is to do. Not many of us like the SWF but it works fine the way it is. Maybe try celtic sea salt if you haven't. It definately gives it a different, milder taste and works great!

Hi:
I started the Cleanse on Monday, and again on Tuesday. Monday was starvation that drove me to eat a salad at supper time, Tuesday a pounding headache. By Wednesday I had officially started the Cleanse. I did a 2 month Cleanse before Xmas with Dr. Natura products. I have had 2 suppers since Monday.
So, now I am officially on the Master Cleanse, and some sites mention taking Bentonite - 1/4 tsp. No where does it say what time of day I should take it. I am currently doing the Laxative Tea Morning and Evening (I can't stomach Salt Water - too much like a Fleet oral Enema). Any suggestions?

Hi Moira - the Bentonite is not part of the MC. If you really CAN'T handle the SWF you can use the lax tea am and pm. But the SWF is definately preferred.

Those "other" Master Cleanse sites are just plain evil! Seriously, they give out all kinds of miscorrect harmful information. I found that site first, then this one. What a difference! This is the real one. Much more information, helpful and knowledge here.

Hi!
I am planning on starting the MC but first a few questions.....

Will i be able to continue with my normal work out regimen??? (fairly strenuous)

Do you only have BMs in the morning normally or is this something i will be dealing with at work ALL DAY?

I hear your skin clears up, should i discontinue my face creams from the dermatologist? Will they contribute as toxins in my body??

I am planning on returing to a fairly healthy diet, i am already vegan but not very healthy about it. I plan on eating mostly fruits and veggies and nuts after, but i know that i will want to go out for cocktails on the weekends. How bad is alcohol? Is there a certain kind that is best, such as wine perhaps??? Should I drink salt water the next day to cleanse???
