This cleanse is self-designed. It’s pretty much just a raw food situation for 3 days for the purpose of giving your body a chance to slow down, eliminate toxins and allow for a subtle reboot to the system. It is generally advised that one do this type of cleanse during a time that you can otherwise take things easy. It’s normal and expected that you may find yourself to be more emotional, irritable, etc. as your body eliminates toxins over the course of the 3 days. It’s also normal that you may experience headaches if you’re used to having a lot of caffeine or sugar in your system.
Personally, I find the reintroduction of various foods/drinks after the 3 days to be among the most beneficial aspects of cleansing, as you become aware of the various effects experienced from specific items.
