So first of all, lets go through the colon cleanse process itself. During your 4 Day Colon Cleanse, you should eat one tablespoon of the colon cleanse mixed, with some warm or hot water, every 2 hours, 5 times a day. For example, 8am, 10am, Noon, 2pm & 4pm. You can drizzle in a dash of honey to add a bit of sweetness. Watch my youtube video to see me making it.
For the most effective results, it’s recommended you just take the colon cleanse mixture and drink a lot of water. You need to be having at least 1L of water between serves, or 1L of apple juice as a backup.
If you really need to eat in between these two hours, and you’ve already had lots of water, then I recommend eating apples. With their pectin and fibers, apples are known to support the process of colon cleansing.
I know that some people don’t like apples, but I eat them in a different way that most people really love. I cut the apple into nice, thin slices, drizzle them with some lemon juice. Have them as a snack between servings of the colon cleanse. This will not only satiate you, but you’ll feel great.
If you really don’t like apples, I would recommend adding fresh fruit or even try adding some juices. But the point here is to only have foods that will support the colon cleanse process.
If you really need to eat, you may also have a light salad or even some soup in the evening. It’s not the ‘best’ way, but hey if that’s what it takes to get you through the four days, then do it!
Another Way To Do A Colon Cleanse
There’s also an easy “version” of the colon cleanse. It’s not as effective, but you can try it and maybe this way will work better for you to begin with. With this method of taking colon cleanse, you have one serving of the colon cleanse mix a day (usually morning is best, like a breakfast replacement), and do this for 30 days.
During this period, you can have whatever healthy whole foods you like for the rest of the day. Of course, I’d recommend eating as many fresh fruits and vegetables as possible as this is going to help with the cleaning process.
If you think you can stick to the “go hard” version of the 4 Day Colon Cleanse, go for it! Just keep telling yourself it’s not forever, it’s just a few days to do something amazing for your body. And remember, even if you can do only two or three days, you’ll still be giving your body an awesome cleanse and can try for a full 4 days another time.
Enjoy your colon cleanse.
