These pages are an account of our transition through the Mastercleanse Detox programme. This is a 10 day diet designed to cleanse the body and restore good health. We are going on it as a result of a recommendation from a friend in church. We are likely to discuss things here such as our bodily functions. If you are queasy about such matters or don't want to know what we did in the bathroom today, I would recommend you don't continue to read this blob. Here we go .............

Day 5 - Mastercleanse - 26th November

Well we both survived to day as well. No real problems. The cayenne pepper is being left out of most of our drinks now. We believe it is added to "keep you warm". Seems a litte strange to me. But as we progress (and we were warned about this) your sense of taste and smell become far more sensitive. So the taste of the cayenne is now too much to stomach.

Julie and I both went to the bathroom but passed very little. The laxative teas were continuing to work by giving us the odd gripes and scares which passed over time.

I had few headaches today and they were not of great significance. The big thing today was the bad taste in my mouth and my acute bad breath. Now I suffer from bad breath anyway. If I don't eat every 2 hours my stomach starts to ferment and cause bad breath. This had disappeared over the last 4 days but came back today. I have no idea why.

Just can't imagine how we are still alive after 5 days with no food. But in actual fact the physical sensations are less of a problem than you would think. Julie has no desire to eat chocholate and I have no desire for a doughnut or beer. We could both murder a vegetarian shepherds pie though.
