Is it ok to fast on a colon cleanse like Colonix?

I have heard mixed things about not eating for a day or two or three while doing a cleanse. . . does anyone know for sure?

You can, but flushing out everything from your system without replenishing it (with food) can cause some problems including lowered intestinal flora, too little energy (maybe passing out during the day), and you may be spending most of those 2-3 days in the bathroom if you don't have some roughage to slow down the loose stools that you will get from it. Good luck!

yes, make sure you add bulk like psyllium and bentonite clay to it. It's much better to start off with raw fruits and vegetables while staying away from processed sugars and meat. Drinking plenty of water that way you will have energy, fiber and you will be cleansing your system. When you're to the point that your body has adjusted then do it with just the bulk fiber and psyllium and water. It will be much easier for you and not so much a shock to your body.
