detoxing. please help?

Hi, thanks for helping me out. I want to detox (colon cleanse) but I cant pay for meds or pills. How can you detox with just food, or is there a cleanser that is really uncostly?

Thanks for the help.

    You can try Apple cider vinegar. Drink about 2 shots at night. Its very nasty lol but it works. Drinking tons of water works. And also most important for colon cleansing you gotta get lots of fiber.

    EDIT - Also when cleansing, whole food are the best to eat compared to processed food.

    EDIT - Blossom, When detoxing on just water will not help you really detox for your colon and intestinal track. Majority of the bacteria build up comes from water. So eating whole foods will help digesting better. But it will take a little longer but its healthier then eating nothing.

    I know of 2 ways to detox. One is to make a mixture of filtered water, cayenne pepper and lemon juice. * oz. of Water, 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper and the juice of one fresh lemon. The other is an anemia, done once a week, and drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day. A tbsp. of mineral oil will help to. Your colon will love you for that, but stay close to your bathroom. LOL DEE

    Hot foods are usually the best for cleansing , but be aware can be painful for a day after digestion.
