Why, hello Mr Detox

[Cantaloupe]

Hi! I´m currently three weeks high raw, and going for 100% this week. I must be getting all the detox sympyoms at once (TMI to follow, consider yourself warned): Acne, metallic taste in mouth, some foods taste moldy, my hair´s gone haywire, my first ever yeast infection, dizziness, low blood pressure and general fatigue. :eek:

So, hi everyone, and thanks for posting so many informative things for us newbies to learn from. I´m currently waiting for m Excalibur, while debating whether or not I need a juicer yet. As I´m in Norway, there´s little or no access to raw condiments and such, but I´m trying to find online shops that doesn´t have to charge billions for international shipping. :rolleyes:

Anyhow, I´m rambling. :p

Just slug out the detox. It's worth it in the end.

I switched back away from cooked foods recently. I finished my fast last week, and I finally got that icky detox taste out of my mouth.

WOW. I also got that "extra-sensitive to mold" thing and was starting to think I'd gone bonkers. Is that a common sign of detox? I searched all over the web and had a hard time finding anything.

I´m not sure how common it is, but I have read about other having the same experience. Thankfully, most of the symptoms are gone now, but I remain very sensitive to "moldy tasting" fruits. While some look fresh, they taste moldy. Well, this too shall pass, I guess. Thanks everyone!

since this thread was started, but I just did a search to find people from Norway (I come from Norway but live in the UK), and I found this thing about being sensitive to the smell of mould very interesting! When I was fasting back in September, I went to Tesco (big supermarket chain) to buy some food for when I was coming off my fast, and I could hardly bring myself to buy anything - their entire fruit and veg isle just stank to high heaven to me! And I'm not sure if the fruit and veg at Tesco is particularly mouldy and I just happened to be able to smell it that day, or if all fruit and veg smell a bit mouldy but I was just too overly sensitive to it... I tend to think it was the former... :( I also had problems just being out walking, cos the smell from the sewers would waft up at me and make me feel really nauseated.

I had read before I started my fast that a heightened sense of smell was a common side effect, but it's really interesting when it happens

Anyway, it hasn't been this "violent" this time around (I've been raw for 2 weeks now), apart from the bread isle in Tesco really stinking, but that's not mould, that's additives!!! And my fiancés breath REALLY stinks... ;)

I was very sensitive to mold when I was a kid - it was my father's job, he cast things in molds. :p
