I'd like to apologise for the false advertisement. There's not going to be any myth busting here. I'm just going to give you my opinion on something that until this morning I knew very little about, and now I know a little bit more. Cleansing. We've all heard about it, know someone who's gone through the process, someone who loves it. Someone who hates it. Heard about someone who lost forty two pounds on lemonade and Ms. Butter worth alone. was proposed a question by one of my clients. Kiea come up to me and says "your next blog should blog about cleansing". And I think to my self, "that's an awesome idea" then I think,"perhaps I should form an opinion about cleansing first". So that brings us here. A good friend of mine is a trainer, and before she starts training a new client, she requires the to do a cleanse. I think she's a great trainer, so I figured it would have some merit, but I feel the need to gather information for myself before I can confidently pass it off to others with the stamp of confidence that is my opinion. Now before I go any further, I plan to try a supplemental cleanse myself next month. That's going to be part two of this topic. But the research that I gathered, pretty much stated that virtually anyone can stand to benefit from a cleanse. It you smoke, want to loose weight, have a skin condition,bad breath, add, history of cancer. It pretty much covered the whole gambit of issues why anyone would want to make a healthy change in there life.
Another thing is, when you think of cleanses, the first thing that comes to mind is the master cleanse, or the lemon cleanse. Now I also know someone who made it about four days on that cleanse, and talking to her, it pretty much sucked. To me it didn't make sense. Then again in my lifestyle, the fact the I feel the need to lift weights everyday, it's just logical to have a ready supply of protein to build and repair. It explained that the lemon juice provides the vitamins while the maple syrup provides the energy. I can see how someone can loose weight off of that, and I may attempt it my self just to see if it's an option should I have to burn muscle. I generally don't recommend burning muscle, but being a competitive athlete, and one who carries very little body fat, sometimes, in situations that require weight restrictions you have to take extreme measures. The body remembers the form where it was currently at its equilibrium, so it's not hard to gain it back once you establish a base line. Which is another reason why I believe that this particular cleanse as a weight loss strategy is faulty. What do you really think is going to happen after you get off of a lemonade diet for a week and a half....Exactly. Your going to go food zombie. What do zombies think about? Brains. What will you think about? Food...Only food. Until your are completely and totally satisfied. Who knows when that'll happen.
Now that was just my thoughts on the master cleanse, but I haven't written off cleanses as a whole. I think that a couple times a year cleansing is definitely a great idea, it is said to cleanse your mind and your body of toxins. Based on the results I get from my trial, it may be something I incorporate from here on out. If you wanted to read up on cleanse, I got the information from http://naturalmedicine.suite101.com/article.cfm/what_is_cleansing
I normally use more than one source, but I felt that the article was informative and thourough. If your interested, check it out, read it thouroughly, and read the correspondence, it's important to hear what other people just like you think about the subject, not just the author. Alright, that's pretty much it. Be good, and make the right choices.
