Detoxing: good or bad idea for diabetics?
and i really like the idea of being renergized.
then she told me the "diet" part of it-
which basically is a "healthy" drink that can push toxins out of the body.
Warm water, 2 tbsp. real lemon juice, a pinch of cheyenne pepper, 1 tbsp maple syrup.
and you drink this for 3-7 days.
im on a pump-
and i was thinking of ways this would be possible for diabetics.
and i was thinking maybe lowering my basal rate?
what does everyone think?
is detoxing just not something for us diabetics?
since we are recommended to have healthy meals throughout the day
and the possibilities of lows without food.

If you want to truely detox, you need more than a day or two. My daughter is allergic to numbered (man-made) foor dye. You have to be off everything for a couple of weeks. The idea is buy natural ingredients and make everything from scratch. Then after you have eaten this way for 2-3 weeks start adding in things, or in your case go back to normal. In my daughters case she had a bad reaction when we added food dye. All of her emotions became extremely exaggerated. When she was mad, she was hurting people mad. Some of these things have a cummulative effect. A little each day equals a problem. They take so long to leave the system that they build up, this is the case with the dye. If you want to know what is making the kid eating cheetos/m&m's act wild, guess what.
We kept my daughter off ADD meds for about 5 years doing this diet. Some kids being treated today for ADD/ADHD could be treated by removing man-made products from the diet. Our doctor just laughed when we told him about this. But it works! Even now when she is on meds, we keep her off the food dye. And we can usually tell when she has had some.
