am i detoxing?

[teegardinzen]

i have been getting headaches, waking up groggy, and bloated for the past two days. the bloating is the one i'm really wondering about, as the other 2 are fairly obvious. does anyone else feel bloated when detoxing? what other interesting symptoms do you feel? do you find it harder or easier to stay raw when detox strikes? i hope everyone is ready to have a fantastic day 7!

honestly, i've experienced symptoms such as these even AFTER being raw for a while - for me, they were solved by doing these things:
-getting regular colonics (every 2 months)
-eating 2 lbs greens per day
-avoiding cooked food

Improper food combining can also cause bloating. The headache and grogginess can be caused by detox. The bloating might be too but try proper food combining and see if that helps.

Bitt,
I am like addicted to kombucha. I havent really heard anyone talking about it in their blogs. It has really helped to get me through. I drink one a day. Too bad they are soo expensive.

I have never been able to go raw for more than two weeks at a time and I have to say that this time has been different from any other. Usually I lose like 9 or 10 ten pounds during the first week, but this time I only lost 5. I also have been bloated alot lately, and very tired. I have been really irritable and the cold weather makes me really crave cooked food.

Bad food combo and or increasing your fiber intake could be the cause of bloating.

here is a chart that explains some of the food combo:

I try and get some excercise to reduce bloat and increase water intake to flush toxins.

Hope you feel better soon
