i started the mc yesterday morning and was feeling fine until last night when it was time to drink the laxative tea. since then i havent had a BM, but ive been throwing up every hour all night even though there is nothing to throw up. i cant even keep water down.
should i go to the doctor? should i ride it out but break the fast? can i still be eliminating toxins even though there is nothing left to throw up? and i still cant have a BM.
i am miserable, pleae tell me what to do :(

How much of the mc concoction have you been consuming, how much water have you been drinking? I assume you are referring to the senna leaf tea...how much of that did you consume? if you are not used to the tea your body may freak out. Have you ever done a cleanse or fasting before?
I personally would not see the doctor as long as you are not throwing up suspicious things such as blood or your stomach lining.....
But listen to your body and it definately is telling you it is not happy. I would try a watery fruit such as any type of melon and move into green smoothies to help the healing.
Maybe this just wasn't a good time for the cleanse.

Ginger Ale isn't raw, but you can make a raw version. Try ginger and lemon juice in water? The MC isn't raw so maybe your body is reacting to that? If you keep throwing up the MC then i'd just drink plain water or fresh juice.

feeling much better now, i just have a headache and feel weak. how does one go about a water fast? will my body keep eliminating without help?
or is there such a thing as a green smoothie fast? would that be as effective?

Capullo ~ Glad you are feeling a tiny bit better! Fasting can be hard on the system especially if you are going from SAD to a fast (you said you were new to raw?). Its better to eat raw for a bit before jumping into a fast, easier on the system and no so shocking! ;) I am glad that you are not throwing up anymore! Maybe do a juice fast instead, making your own? :confused: Get lots of rest!

As I try to warn everyone on fasting. DON'T USE SENNA. SIDE EFFECTS CAN BE DEATHLY. Vomtting is one of the adverse reactions with senna. There are other things you can use but IMO, dont' use the senna tea or anything that contains it.

Capullo, anything that is ingested, the body absrobs alittle in the blood stream,tissue etc. Considering you PA , that is one of the worst things to use. You're better of doing soft enemas with lemon juice or some use prune juice or perhaps the salf flush that MC talks about. some dont' like the taste but you'll have to try what works best for you.
