Well, I definitely did not do the cleanse for long enough, this much I know. The statement is true for last time as well. The first indication of this: my tongue was still pasty white when I quit on the 11th day. I actually quit halfway through the day, for several reasons: some social (I need to meet with some people this week over meals), and some not (I have a blood test on Friday, and I want my body to “normalize” — no fake gluten allergy thing). The other reason: the day after I quit, I’ve gotten two or three pimples (one pretty big). It’s as though there are toxins still wanting to get out, and that’s the route they took.<\/p>\n

I opted out of the liver flush this time, but I’ll do another one of those upon our return from the Christmas break.
