Has any one tried the master cleanse diet?

I am on day 4 of the 10 day fast. I use the laxative tea at night and the sea salt water flush in the morning. My question is when is all the built up stuff from my intestines suppose to come out. When I do the sea salt flush it is just a bunch of water that comes out the other end. Is this normal? I know this is a gross question and I hope I didn’t offend or make anyone sick. Thanks for your help

Is an oatmeal diet a good way to cleanse the body?

I have been cramming an inconsiderable amount of junk into my body for the past month and am feeling bloated, constipated, and just entirely CRAPPY. I am in dire need of just emptying out my intestines of all this crap.
I know oatmeal is very very good for you and was wondering, if I eat oatmeal and a piece of fruit for breakfast and lunch, and maybe a salad with salmon for dinner for about a week or so, will this be a good way to just rid my body of all the crap in my intestines? Thank you!
I snack in between meals, but was just wondering if this was a good idea for just meals!

I will, of course, drink lots of water and stay away from coffee, artificial sweeteners, and “fat free” products. It’s so hard because I am absolutely ADDICTED to coffee, but I realize it is ruining me.. (I usually drink around 6 cups a day -_-’)
annabelle… i never said anything about losing weight. i do believe i asked about clearing out my intestinal system of the large amounts of junk food i’ve been cramming into my stomach. my stomach doesn’t feel like it’s able to digest anything anymore because it’s just overloaded with crap

also has anyone esle experienced this.. and is it a good thing to have low stomach acid?? “Doesn’t the acidic ph of the stomach destoy enzymes?
Viktorus Kulvinskas, one of the world’s foremost and most experienced active researchers into enzyme nutrition has information showing then stomach acid merely deactivates food enzymes. The enzymes are then reactivated in the more alkaline small intestine. Many people who eat all raw foods, sense a world of healthful difference in our energy, digestion and connectedness with nature by eating enzyme-rich living foods. When we stopped eating cooked protein foods which require large secretions of stomach acid (which is not healthful for several reasons) our stomach doesn’t produce much stomach acid. Many people who eat raw foods eat a low protein diet and are free from the stomach acid secretions and have much more energy and a lighter disposition.”

Is lack of fiber a contribution factor to obesity?

Soluble fiber gives people the feeling of feeling full and non-soluble fiber helps clean out the lower intestine. You see all these adds nowadays for “cleansing” Could it be Americans just need to eat less crap and produce more in the bathroom?

Does anyone know a heavy person on a high fiber, low fat diet?
