You may experience some discomfort as your body detoxifies such as mild (low grade fevers, headaches, skin rashes, or constipation) to more severe (persistent diarrhea, painful aches, etc) healing crises. These signal that your body is moving to a new level of detoxification and victory is near, but can be unpleasant. You may go back down a level or two from your current detox diet for a day or two or maybe just for one meal until the symptoms are more tolerable. Then gradually move back up the detox diet ladder.
For all diets below – no alcohol, caffeinated beverages, sodas, bread products, pastas, dairy, processed foods, added sugars (white, brown, candy, chocolate, maple syrup), eggs, fast foods, or fried foods.
