I've been doing about 60% raw for a couple of days now, and as I very rarely have cooked food anyway, wondered if the strange things I'm experiencing is some kind of detox. I've read the info thread on detoxing, and might be able to pin my awful headache to detox. However, there's some other things I'm experiencing that weren't on the list. I'm coughing a hell of a lot, and it feels like the kind of cough where something nasty is trying to come up. Not just that, my fingers have swollen up, my ring doesn't fit on my finger anymore, it even cut me as I tried to take it off and move it to another that it used to be too big for.

Can anyone give me any insight? It is much appreciated! :)

Some Detox on less than 100%, I don't know about the Swelling. Are you eating more Salt. Salt makes you retain water.

Drink more water to flush out the retained water.
