A cleansing diet would be rearranging your entire diet, for a short time or forever, to emphasize cleansing toxins out of your colon, liver, and other organs. The reason you read about fasting a lot is that it's the best cleansing diet there is -- you take in no toxins while your body has the opportunity to clean itself out in the meantime. How long to fast is controversial, but when first starting out it's usually recommended to do one day, then move on later to two, etc.
And most importantly, watch your diet. The best book on what to eat and what not to eat is a book written by Dr. Don Colbert called, What Would Jesus Eat. Aviod foods that come in packages and eat real food. For example, for breakfast eat things like steel cut oats with raw fruit. For lunch eat things like a big raw salad with extra virgin olive oil and balsalmic vinegar, some feta cheese made from goat's milk (dairy from cow's milk is constipating.
There are liver cleanses, colon cleanses, kidney cleanses -- they can be very good for health, but not very useful for losing weight in a healthy fashion because the weight will just come back as soon as you return to your normal way of eating.

Yes, I know they are completly qualified to treat this disease, but if you have never had it....you do NOT know how certain foods "feel" as they move through your system.
So I am now faced with the medical comments of, "After the second outbreak, the next is surgey to reconnect your bowels"
I want to AVOID SURGERY at all costs and manage my disease through diet and daily care.
Been there and done that, but it's no fun to eat anymore it was always my favourite pastime! My husband refuses to eat any of this "diet" food, wants to eat normally, and he can. But when I have to worry about 2 different meals, 3 to 6 times a day, I can't come up with much. The only thing we agree upon is oatmeal!!!! We both like it and it works well for our bowels. Thanks for all your help and info.
The colon detox programs have been proven to be shams time and time again. The body has its own mechanism for cleansing itself (bowel movements) and the detox programs contain chemicals which solidify in the gut - this is what is eventually "passed". The frequency of your bowel movements does not sound like its a problem.
The constant bloating could be due to IBS or food allergies - have you seen a doctor about this?

The sense of smell changes for some people on tx and he may be having an issue with the foods he attempts to eat, they just don't smell the same anymore. Try somethings that are served cold and not hot or warm, like chicken and tuna salads served on crackers or bread, raw veggies not cooked, cold hard boiled eggs not fried, cold pizza, salads and anything else you can think of that's not always cooked.

I am a week and a half out from surgery. I had my first bowl movement Monday and it was painful, I had some formed stools and some soft. Today I was extremely constipated, I sat in the bathroom for a half hour trying to go. Is this normal and am I going to mess up what the dr has done by straining so much? I am on a soft diet, there are certain foods I have to avoid cause they upset my stomach.
