Question by ghettolove2525: How much can a person lose in a month on the raw food detox diet?
Best answer:
Answer by Harriet J
Obviously, it depends how much they weigh to begin with. There are huge differences if a person weighing 60kg goes on the diet and a person weighing 200 goes on the diet (the heavier person would lose more) It also depends on variables like exercise. I would say for an average pesron no more than a few kilos a month.

I have read this book. It’s super good to eat raw foods as they contain all their nutrients. Being vegan means virtually no saturated animal fat so cutting this out alone will help you lose weight. I am vegetarian and get a lot of my calories from dairy, I would weigh less if I cut them out completely. You should lose weight rapidly especially if you exercise. Probably 2-5 lbs a week. Drink water and stay below 1300 calories, it will melt off fast! good luck.

This 267 comprehensive book is about non-traditional medicine and is about Dr Moser, one of the first holistic practioners. She wrote the book for two reasons.
One, to help educate the general public about the virtues of natural medicine and the second, to encourage the next generation of natural healers.
Her contention was that typical (AMA) medicine rarely makes a connection between the real causes of a degenerative or infectious disease and its cure. The causes are usually considered mysterious, ie.. we don’t know why the pancreas is acting up, etc. The sick are sympathized with as victims who did nothing to contribute to their condition.
She says that this institutionalized irresponsibility seems useful for both parties to the illness, doctor and patient. The patient is not required to do anything about their complaint except pay (a lot) and obediently follow the instructions of the doctor, submitting unquestioningly to their drugs and surgeries. The physician then acquires a role of being considered vital to the survival of others and thus obtains great status, prestige, authority, and financial remuneration.
She realizes that in so expressing this will alienate some readers. But she does so because most Americans are entirely enthralled by doctors, and this doctor-god worship kills a lot of them.
Hygienic medicine, as Dr. Moser presents, is an opposite view. To the naturopath, illness is not a perplexing and mysterious occurrence over which you have no control or understanding. The causes of disease are clear and simple, the sick person is rarely a victim of circumstance and the cure is obvious and within the competence of a moderately intelligent sick person themselves to understand and help administer. In natural medicine, disease is a part of living that you are responsible for, and quite capable of handling.
Disease means dis-ease, or ill at ease. Most all of what we go through is due to our lifestyles being out of “wack.” Natural remedies such as diet, fasting, colon cleansing, vitamins, food supplements and herbs when monitored and “DONE” by people taking personal responsibility for their suffering to “be their own doctor” have worked and can work to alleviate diseases.
Dr Moser ran a school for years teaching the above approaches to healing. There are many examples of real life situations and many examples of how and what Dr. Moser suggests to help you.
This book includes..
The Nature and Causes of Disease
Fasting
Colon Cleansing
Diet and Nutrition
Vitamins and Food Supplements
Helping Your Body to Recover
Isn’t it time to look at healing alternative? Why take drugs and have surgeries which may not be needed? With the costs of typical medicine continuing to go sky high, why not see another way?
Reading this book will open your eyes !

Question by Danielle S: How much weight can I lose on colon detox pills?
My cousin asked me to be her bridesmaid. ‘Till now I’ve been procrastinating. I have 3 weeks to lose weight. If I:
1. eat 2-3 small meals a day
2. exercise everyday for 1 hour
3. take detox pills everyday
4. drink 10-12 glasses of water a day
5. restrict eating after 6
I really need your help, guy! Maximum points!!

Answer by Rowan’s Mommy
There’s really no correct answer to this because it all depends on how well your body responds to the detox pills. I’ve lost at least 5 lbs in the last few days on it, so if your body reacts the same way within three weeks you can lose upwards of 15lbs if there’s that much waste still inside.

Question by hannah b: will this detox diet work and how much weight will i loose?
Foods to Eat
Use organic fruits and vegetables as they have less pollutants and chemicals. Organic food also has a higher nutritional content than non-organic commercialized produce.
Basically your diet should mostly consist of juiced, raw, frozen, or lightly steamed fruits and veggies. Corn and avocados should be avoided, white potatoes can be eaten only in moderation. Eating a variation each day will ensure you are getting enough vitamins and keep this diet as interesting as possible.
Foods to Avoid
Here is a brief list of foods to avoid while on this plan. To get the full detoxing effects, stick to the diet and be sure that you don’t cheat!
Dairy and animal products
Bread, pasta, grains, cereal
Chocolate
Nuts
Sauces
Pickled vegetables or canned fruit
Alcohol and cigarettes
Coffee and tea (except green and herbal)
Meal Plans
- Breakfast
Variations of fruit or fruit puree are great for breakfast. They are nutritious, filling and the natural sugars will give you energy to get through the morning.
To make a fruit puree, cut up your fruit and place in a pot on the stove with a small amount of water. Cover and leave it on a low heat until the fruit is soft. Now just throw it in the blender and add a squeeze of fresh lemon to taste. I also like to add a little cinnamon.
My favorite blends contain apples, plums, nectarines, pears and berries, but really anything goes. You can also mix it up a bit by using your blender to achieve different consistencies.
- Lunch & Dinner
For your main two meals its important to keep calories low but nutrition high. A vegetable puree soup is the answer. This will give you energy to get through the day and all the nutrients you need.
Cut up your vegetables, add approximately one cup of vegetable stock, and cover on a low heat until the vegetables are soft. Now throw it in the blender and spice it up with a raw clove of garlic or jalapeño pepper (only a little as it’s very spicy!). I also like to add cilantro and a little olive oil.
I like to experiment with different vegetables for this soup. Great ideas are spinach and broccoli, collard greens, zucchini, onion, carrots and sweet potatoes. Beans also make a great addition. I like to use chickpeas but be sure they are organic.
- Desserts & Snacks
This diet can sometimes leave you feeling hungry (it wouldn’t be a diet if it didn’t!), so its important to have some filling snacks around for when you need a boost.
Fruit smoothies are a great options for dessert or a snack between meals. You need to buy packs of frozen organic fruits from your supermarket. These lock all the goodness into the fruit and are very convenient. I actually find that frozen bananas taste much better in a smoothie than fresh ones so I peel ripe bananas and put them in a ziplock bag in the freezer.
Just add ice and a little water, then blend away! I like blends of blueberries, strawberries, blackberries and banana. Its really up to you to find a few combinations that you love. Be creative!
- Drinks
Freshly squeezed juices are very detoxing and a great way to get some condensed nutrition into your body. Fresh juice is also packed full of enzymes which are fundamental in maintaining good health and preventing disease.
Some ideas for recipes – try playing around with these super-healthy ingredients. Cucumbers, apples, carrot, ginger, garlic, beet and broccoli.
Don’t forget to drink Green Tea. This is so effective as a diet aid because it increases your metabolism and reduces your appetite. It has also been used for more than 4000 years in Chinese medicine, to cure ailments ranging from headaches to depression.

Today, the big buzz word in the holistic health world is detox. Many people are looking for ways in which to help detoxify themselves and are turning to a plethora of holistic products on the market to do so.
Why? Well our air and water quality is poor in many regions of the country due to vehicle emissions, factory output and toxic waste. Many people no longer drink tap water and opt instead for bottled (unfortunately many tests have shown that even bottled water is not that “pure”). Our food contains pesticides, steroids, antibiotics and toxic substances. Some people have even ingested heavy metals such as lead or mercury from paint and exposure to other materials.
With all the bad stuff attacking us every day, people are looking for toxic relief. Some of the holistic products used are foot baths, colon cleansing, vitamins and one of the most popular items — detox foot patches.
The detox foot patch was originally developed in Japan by Dr. Kawase Itsuko, the founder of the “Kawase Takara”. She hypothesized that if trees could grow for ages without any aid, humans too should be able to live longer — if they could discover and harness the secrets behind the growth of trees. A Sensei in Japan, Dr. Kawase Itsuko combined the application of certain eastern medical theories with western medical technological skills to gain an unprecedented result in the discovery that the resinous substance or wood vinegar of some trees actually possesses detoxifying functions.
The quality and prices of these patches vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Some consumers opt for less expensive knockoffs while others prefer higher quality; especially the original. Which product to use, as with any other, is up to the consumer.
The number of patches to be worn and the duration of time to detox is proportionate to the quality of the foot patch. Lesser quality patches require multiple patches and a longer time to reach detox. Consequently, an individual patch may cost less, but based on the increased number of patches needed, the overall cost of lesser quality patches is actually higher.
Higher quality patches have a different challenge – getting people to not wear too many. Many people subscribe to the old axiom that if one is good then two is better and multiple are best. Not so necessarily when it comes to high quality patches. Wearing more than one high-quality patch at a time will not necessarily speed up the detoxifying process. If you use a high quality patch then one per application should be more than enough.
The body has a wonderful system of natural detoxification via the kidneys, liver, sweat glands and other organs. You will want a detox method that compliments your natural detoxification processes. Patches are designed to do just that, by helping to alleviate some of the stress on the detoxifying organs.
Regardless of which patch or which method of detox you choose, remember, the most important piece of information about any detoxification method is to exercise patience – detoxification is a process and it takes time.
