Time to Detox

My progress has been slowing down so, it’s time to re-evaluate what I’m doing. I was thinking about re-adjusting my diet, but I have been so miserable with eye allergies and shoulder inflammation from sleeping on it wrong, that I have decided I need to detox. Mainly, because it scares me that my inflammation in my body is out of control and that it can lead to another stroke.

My raw foods are slowly healing my body but I decided I needed to have a faster relief. I have had the eye allergies for over 3 years and the shoulder inflammation is a sign to me that my body is not controlling the inflammation well. So, I believe in order to make progress, I need to rid my body of toxins that are causing the allergies which are causing inflammation which is causing the allergies, diabetes and another potential stroke. So, even though I’ve made great improvement, I feel I need to focus in on getting rid of the toxins that are causing all the problems in order to stop this vicious cycle.

The length of this detox will depend on the results I’m getting. I will still report as this is a part of my diabetic cure solution. Then, I will continue back on the Raw food diet again. Because, I still believe it is the best way to eat.

I’ve decided to use the Master Cleanse program, but I will be using stevia in the beginning instead of Maple Syrup because of the potential to raise my blood sugar. If my blood sugar gets too low, I will start using the Maple Syrup to provide the carbs, nutrients and calories that I might need.
