Well, I’ve just completed a Blackmores 10 day 5 organ detox program.  it was intresting, however I am yet to see if its had an affect on me.  Must be healthier than I thought.

There are a couple of reasons why I decided to do this.  Firstly, there has been a lot of consumption of alcholic drinks in the last 6 months.  probably more so than any other time in my life.  So we thought it might be good to get that out of my system.  And in the last forever my diet has been getting progressivly worse and worse.  I was eating a lot of suger I think, even though I tried to limit it.  And finally, I have been very exhausted as of late, and it probably has a lot to do with lifestyle, but we figured maybe its also diet.

So I did this detox.  There were 4 things to take, and a mit to scrub the skin with.  The 5 organs it targeted were liver, upper intestines, stomach and lower intestines.  The digestive bitters was the foulest thing I have ever tasted.  And then you had to control your diet.  Limit sugar,  no red meats, no wheat, as much fruit and veg as you like, etc.  I have to admit, I was surprised that I managed to stick with the diet for 10 days, however I will also admit, I wasnt perfect but I did try my best.  For example, it was pretty hard to get rye bread, so I did have some wheat, but it was always limited, like in soy and linseed bread.  And for breakfast you were supposed to eat plain yoghurt with lactobacillis (?) or something, however I had to finish the yoghurt we had in the house first before it went off.

While you are doing the detox, it isnt uncommon to have headaches, feel tired and weak, etc, etc.  However its common for me to have slight headaches anyway, so I had no way to judge if that was abnormal for me.  And I’m fairly certain now that I get so tired becuase of my lifestyle.  I need one day a week to chill out.  SO overall, I dont feel healthier.  and I have no idea if this diet has had any affect on me.

I guess the only other thing to check is if I lost any weight.  which I also doubt.

$35 not well spent.

On another note, Im being stalked by a song. – Ben Lee, Catch my Disease.  Everyday this week it has played somewhere near me, which is surprising since its not a new release or anything.  I think Im going to have to download it to get rid of it. if that makes any sense…
