I’m doing the Clean Program, as I mentioned in my last post.
It’s a 3 weeks cleanse, and I will be updating my experiences throughout the next 21 days!
Day 3 !
I’m doing the cleanse from the book and so taking my own supplements as close to what the book recommends..
Supplements I’m taking:
Touchstones supergreens +d x 2 capsules
digestive enzymes x 1 with lunch time meal
probiotics x 1 with evening shake
multi vitamin x 1 with morning shake
dandelion tea throughout the day
Energy & Movement:
I managed a little 30 minute workout this morning, I love moving my body in the morning and my energy was good once i got moving, I did wake up very hungry and a little heavy. I’ve been very productive through the day and my mind feels more free.. as my digestive load is lighter. I do feel my hunger rise up before each shake or meal.. and recognising emotional hunger coming up more in the evenings.
Bowels:
Bowel movements are good, ordered the natural calm magnesium from amazon, so waiting for that to arrive to add to my evening water. I will also be adding in coffee enema’s if needed…
What I’m adding to my shakes:
sunwarrior protein powder vanilla x 1 scoop
maca x 1 tsp
inner glow beauty powder x 1/2 tsp
chia seeds x 1 tbsp
hemp seeds x 1tbsp
Usual base for shake :
coconut water
avocado
berries
cinnamon
greens – spinach/lettuce
Additional foods I’m avoiding:
lemon
coconut
raw cacao
( I have had tests run on these and unfortunately they are coming up as a food sensitivity for now, so have cut them out aswell as the elimination diet in the book, sad because I miss my lemon water and adding coconut in my smoothies and veggie dishes, but it is worth it for even more energy! )

Detox Symptoms:

Day 2: Little breakout, but could be hormonal because started period this day.
Day 3: a little less energy than usual.. but feeling lighter in body & mind
So far so good! being a perfectionist I would love to use the kit just so I know I have all the supplements covered, however I live in the UK.
Looking forward to the next 18 days, in positive spirits 🙂
