I'm in NYC, it's December, I feel compelled to start a fast, maybe the master cleanse. What do you folks have to say about cleansing in cold weather months. I will be indoors the first few days, but then it's out in the snow, cold weather, etc.. Any advice on this?

Re: Winter cleansing
Sat, December 15, 2007 - 8:35 PMA 7 day or shorter should be ok. At this time of seasons the pores of the body are closed to save energy and keep the body warm. If you've fasted for 10 to 14 or more days, you know that the body temp will drop. That’s the only thing I can see wrong with a long fast this time of year. Any fast is Good. -

Tue, December 18, 2007 - 1:29 PMit feels like a good time for a cleanse to me too.
i am thinking i will do soups all week - with bitter greens, nettles, seaweed, shiitake mushrooms. raw olive oil, dandelion greens because they are popping up allover. probably rice or quinoa and miso too.
i will try and up my intake of herbal teas - red raspberry, oatstraw, nettles
for me - i want to keep eating - but simplify and alkalize. if it goes well and feels right i would do a day in the middle for the master cleanse. -
