I did the protocol just the drink no extras just to test the effectiveness. I have done cleanses and fasting many times over the years an knew what to handle. I did 14 days of the cleans drink part. I did not eat meat and ate very light dinner and had homemade sourdough on some evenings. I had black stuff coming our of my arm hair follicles. I lost 14lbs or so in that two week span. I feel lighter, I smell and taste better, I have great energy levels. I shared all this with others ans have 3-7 others who joined me in this who also are seeing results in a matter of days. This cleanse I will do probably every 2 weeks and added activated charcoal. I used cayenne tincture concentrate for my heat and I started with 15 drops a drink and I finished my two weeks taking 3 full droppers of the tincture. Absolutelu changed my body and everyone can do this.
